It was a joke. Of course is not a chaet! I couldn't find an english wotld to say it! ;-)

Hi Glig! I've tried different solution, following also some suggestion from Andrew of Codeweavers, but they didn't work. So to play and download the PT data with the new client for mac 2.x you need to reset all... But... but it looks that the developers at Codeweavers have a client app that works for PTs exactly as the pc version: so it creates a new directory WOWS_PublicTest in the Game folder where is the regular World_of_Warships one. I've asked for a copy or for the instructions to build it, but I'm still waiting 4 it and today it started the Part 2 of the PT... Hope for the next PT to have one to distribute. I'm crossing fingers, because now I use on Bootcanp partition to keep both so I can play Part 2 on the pc one. Don't like it but it's easier by now. It's a shame because before this new mac client, it was very easy or simple to keep both on the OSX only!

Sure Glig! They might have some places left in Siberia to segregate them...!!!!

Sorry to post it again but you should put back all the freedom that was possible before 6.3, 6.3.0.1, 6.3.1, PT 6.4. 1. Description; Cannot set key in Controls Setting Panel as I need 3. Result Why don't you permit anymore players to set Right Shift, Right Ctrl, Page down? Don't know about Space or other keys that other user were complaining about. 4. Expected result I can set the keys to control as I need, to play comfortably as I'm used since the beginning 5. Technical details I can't play comfortably with AWSD and QE, sory! P.S. If some players mess up with the keys can always revert to Default, so where is problem to keep it free?

Lovely, sad is just for Premium... Best of all. You should add a guy, like in Container, that is soldering with sparkles!!

I've played few battles yesterday, and I noticed a lot of haze that before I didn't see. It make more difficoult to point at far ships. Does It depend from the disappeared Sky Control settings in the Graphic Settings? Or by the new weather sw?

Appreciate the possibility to almost mute Gun sound. I've seen is corrected also in the offficial 6.3.1! Txs. But, I'd like to have an additional slider on the right side of the sound Settings, the Mixing one, where you can control the heavy Fx like explosions, and bullet hitting your ship. At the moment they depend only on the Sub Master " Sound FX" that if lowered, to soft them, it also soft all the others. Thank you in advance.

!6:46 CEST error and patches also here. But I should say that I had problems connecting also at Forum today around 12 pm, so could be a server problem somwhere. And do not forget, that today, they also updated the regular one to 0.6.3.1!! Unfortunately not fixing the key mapping problems... who knows... Last but not least: it's the second time since PT 0.6.3 that the Public Test Forum is not updated with the current one 0.6.4. Maybe they are also short of people.

Hi, you can delete this post. Thank you!

I'd like to know if the splash screen when it start downloading the 0.6.4 public test data, it says as usual the PT version on the right corner. Sorry for asking, but since the recent changes in the Mac client, I've had some problems running the official and the PT one together. So tonight launching the PT client it started a splash screen exactly the same as the regular one. And it might be a problem of the mac wrapper. Thank you! UPDATE: now it works. It was a problem of a cfg file not correct. P.S: By the way, I'll post news if Codeweavers give me a solution I've been discussing with for few days, to keep at the same time 2 copies of wows (official and test) after the recente Mac client 2.0.x update.

I just launched the PT Client and I thought that the Control key settings problem that existed in the first release of the PT 0.6.3, but was fixed in a following release, and again emerged in the official 0.6.3 release and never patched, were solved in this first PT 0.6.4. Instead they're getting worst: - Right Shift cannot be set - Right Ctrl cannot be set - Page down cannot be set and now is even reserved! Don't know about Space or other keys that other user were complaining about. Now, not only I can't drive a CV because Shift is used to select multiple squadrons and I can't set right one for Port, but the Consumable 3rd that I've always mapped to Page down is GONE... so even with all the other ships I don't have my usual and handy mapping. I think that as a community of players, almost adult, almost with some knowledge of settings, KEY Mapping should be free, as it was before 0.6.3. Isn't it?

Hope so, but after almost 10 Tickets I really don't know who I should contact for... On February 20, I claimed Reawrds for PT 0.6.0 and for PT 0.6.1 part 1. Ok. Open up the game client and it delivered the PT 0.6.1 but NOT the 0.6.0. Deadline for 6.0 claiming was Feb 27. Started writing tickets, got just cut&paste answers, that really upset me. After few Tickets, Luckas rebuilt the log of what I claimed since November, and demonstrated that on Feb 20 ONLY ONE PT Rewards were delivered. Time to answer him to thank him, he was gone... the next person just gave me bull crap... Other few Tickets of cut&paste answers.. until Josephine sort it out: the 0.6.0 Rewards were back in the Bonus page to be claimed. Great! Thank you! Love you! But on March 27 I claimed those, together with the ones from 6.2 Part 1 and 2, and guess what? System delivered to Account ONLY those for PT 0.6.2 part 1 and 2... 0.6.0 missing, dead, lost, sunk, somewhere in the ssd or hds or Raid or in some software glitches/bugs... Wrote a Ticket more, a nice guy told me that on Feb 20 I received 3X Signals and 10 cammos... Oh no! Start all over again... Answered him and sent proofs of Bonus pages, and every single screen shot of the latest claim on March 27 (total 18 pics)... Next guy arrogantly answered that I already received an answer on the topic and closed down the ticket... I opened up another one, and I will, over, and over, and over again... until I WILL HAVE WHAT I DESERVE FOR MY TIME, PASSION AND ACTIVE PARTICIPATION IN THE PT Session and FORUM. Amen. And I'm not happy at all about that, wasting my precious time. So I really hope that after that investigation, nice people like Luckas or Josephine will write a mail telling me that WOW is very sorry for what happened and those rewards have been uploaded straight to my account... may be with a little bonus for all the useless time I spent starting all over again in every Ticket because the person replying was always different. P.S. I've been testing CG fx software for some years in the early years of my carrier in the video and cg industry. So... don't be evil. Thank you.

OK, you didn't make it this time with 6.3.1 updt: fixing the Right Shift or Right Ctrl or whatever key wasn't working anymore. So, when you'll post a small update that will fix this VERY IMPORTANT thing? You know, small thing, very often make the difference...!! Thank you!

Sory guys, but I just started the client and there was a small update, so I thought: Great they did as in the Public Test 0.6.3: quickly fixing the key binding problems ( right Shift or right Ctrl, ...) But NO, you didn't! WHY? I can't play CV because I need Shift and I use the right one for Cruise Port! Another player in the PT was using right Ctrl for other purposes! You fixed it in the second release of PT 0.6.3, why not in this one? Please let us know. Txs!

When I saw this fancy Commander I couldn't understand, than I notice in transparency a new ship: a submarine! Before starting with polemic discussion yes or no, let's try it. It will be fun or disastrous. Either way... But you can't, Battle is dimmed out. P.S. After the submarine I've a nice idea for Jap CV penalized by US aircraft superiority... Saipan docet. UPDATE: Snowman fighters!

Just a reminder, as I didn't and couldn't explain myself in the first 4 sec what's going on!

It was the problem of the first 6.3 version in the Public Test, but then was fixed 2 days later with an update.... somebody took the first release by mistake to make it official I guess.

Thanks Glig, hope they do something and solve the problem. No feedback yet on Codeweavers site or mail. I might try something just to see if it does work, as I backed up the PT 63 files before cleaning up. Also I can't play with the new update, because I use a different key control setup, that uses arrows and numeric pad instead of awsdqe. But this release has bug that doesn't allow you to set right shift and ctrl, because if so you loose the shift normal use and ctrl to lock target and priority.... That is sad, because the problem was solved in the second update of the PT 6.3 and it's amazing that comes back in the official release. I'll let you know if I'm able to sort it out!

DISASTROUS! One thing is to make mistakes in a PT like it was with some Control Keys not working and that you fixed 2 days later with an update. Another story is the real game: Again right Shift is not independent and cannot be set it up for a function, because as just happened to me then instead of selecting more squadrons the CV took a left turn into the cost.... Then it comes those PSYCHO CV players that do not combat the first 10 minutes because the only thing they got in mind is to destroy the other CV. Poor, sad, psychopathic players. You have problem in your family? Have you already killed your mum and dad?

HUGE PROBLEM Control keys "right Shift" or "right Ctrl" don't work but it was fixed in the PT 0.6.3 last update. So why in the current still? Also it does NOT distinguish between right and left controls, so if you set up "right Shift" in reality both Shift are taken eliminating the usual Shift zoom function. I just lost a battle easily, trying to fix on the go but it didn't work... Tried to set up left rudder "right ctrl" but it took all ctrl and couldn't Ctrl clik on planes or targets to prioritize them. Please fix it quickly! Thank you!

April Fool? Great, but let's play it only on April 1st then!!

I know it's a late post, I might replay it in the current update once 6.3 is on. But there is a real problem with sound fx in terms of volume, it cannot be controlled at all. Especially as i use always an headphone!! I'll post my settings, but even taking the GUN control to 0 (zero) they are bloody loud. So are the explosion of your and other near ships, or the sound when you're hit by enemy shells!! It has to be a volume control for GUN that if set to zero, is muting them. It has to be a control on sound fx related only to the loudest sound as explosion, shell hitting metal and so on. I'm talking of db, many of them, that my ears could easily not going to miss at all... Or if you like and technically speaking, give us use a limiter for those instead of a volume control, that one can adjust to the limit he likes. Thank you!

An UPDATE for WOWS: can you please tell me if it's still possible to use the old client/wrapper 1.0.12 the one before the 2.0.4 officially released? Because with the old one it crash without downloading. After all the trouble as the post before, I tried today to clean even all the files from the wine bottler so I started downloading as if it was 2 weeks ago, with the old wrapper. It starts, it ask you auto update or not, but then after asking to update to the new client/wrapper and I select " Remind me later" it crashes not even starting downloading. While instead, running the new 2.0.4 client/wrapper it starts downloading. I've also wrote to Codeweavers to understand from them how to keep two different copies of the Client when, like these days, there is a Public Test running. Because at the moment it looks that I can keep one or the other because both point to the same exe and .cfg file. Thank you!

Ahi, ahi... I got into trouble with the undergoing PT setup. As I posted separately, I did the same as I always do to participate to PT with a Mac: duplicate the app, edit a couple of files and when the PT finishes just delete the relative WOWS folder with its own gigs of data. But with this new client isn't that easy: when yesterday there was an update of the PT everything worked fine and I could play, testing the fixed bugs. But tonight after that, I tried to start the normal client to play as usual, but the "normal" app started the PT again... and my standard data folder of WOWS was gone! So now I'm downloading everything again, but I'd like to know if any of you mac players has tried to play the PT after this 2.0 Mac client update. And if he could play either PT or normal version with this new client. If yes, how? Thank you! Have a nice wend!

Txs for the patch! I've got back my planes that were cruising around shopping in Monte Napo.... |
