November 20, 20205 yr https://warthunder.com/en/game/changelog/current/1167 Quite a lot of new stuff for War Thunder, including updated explosion and gunfire effects and physics of fires and aircraft destruction. Reliable traces of projectiles hitting objects in the game world have been implemented. Added visually reliable sky effects, clouds of different types, fog, sunlight scattering and much more. The graphical Dagor game engine has been updated to version 6.0. Update of atmospheric and weather conditions, clouds, fog and light processing. New visual effects for aircraft: reworked gunshot flashes, jet engine effects, effects of aircraft shells and bomb hits, fire effects and destruction of aircraft. The traces of shell hits on ground vehicles have been reworked and improved. On already destroyed and burning ground vehicles, an internal fire can now be seen through gaps. The shape of the penetration now depends on the angle of impact. Armour-piercing shells stuck in the tank’s armour when not pierced completely have been added. New firing effects for ground vehicle machine guns and automatic cannons for calibers between 7.5 and 30mm. For nVidia GPUs of the RTX2000 and RTX3000 series support for DLSS has been added. (apparently a large FPS increase, and should be interesting when/if this arrives for MSFS2020) Vertical take-off and landing aircraft have been added to the game: A British attack aircraft with the Harrier’s innovative thrust vector deflection technology and the deck Soviet Yak-38 attack aircraft. 14 new and updated tank models, including the long-awaited T-90A have been added. Vessels from all the in-game nations have been divided into two separate trees with the traditional vertical research mechanics - coastal and blue-water fleet. The first battleships arrive in the game, as well as the long-awaited aircraft carriers HMS Ark Royal, USS Forrestal and the “Baku”. New hangars for all vehicle types as well as new locations and missions. And more! Here is the game with every setting, including DLSS maxed on my system: We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

November 20, 20205 yr There are some mighty fine visuals and representations in War Thunder these days! Nice T90 (I think) on the thumbnail!
