[LOC] Kapitan_Blau Players 2 posts 5,628 battles Report post #2 Posted January 14, 2019 Hello same here and I even do not know for what. I just play to relax. Start game --> eventually wait for updates --> do some damage and get torped. ;) Is there any way to see what kind of mod (the reason for 1st strike) is the reason? Once more: I run the standard-Game. No mods. Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry for being a noob :P What kind of penalty? Has your ship icon and playername turned pink? That's not a penalty. It's a warning. You should have a message in port that tells you for how many battles that will last. You can also see it in the detail tab of the after battle reports. If you recieved a warning by mail, please contact support for further details. 23 minutes ago, Kapitan_Blau said: Hello same here and I even do not know for what. I just play to relax.

Those and similar tools are forbidden for Wargamings multiplayer titles, as they use similar / the same mechanisms as cheats would do. Support will not tell you what mod caused the warning, as that could provide information for programmers of illegal mods to circumvent that detection. This warning is, as far as I am aware, eternal. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't even know these tools. So I just hope it will be my first and single warning and never start the game again on this PC after the second one. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I just hope it will be my first and single warning and never start the game again on this PC after the second one. ;) Those are tools to enhance / change the graphic appearence of the game. They inject .dll files and redirect function calls to those instead of the regular DirectX ones. Judging by some reports I have seen some older driver tools might be blacklisted as well. I have no idea how truthfull those reports are so take that with a grain of salt. If you run a graphic card with old Catalyst Control Center from ATI/AMD (AMD Radeon 6xxx series or older) and enabled some feature through the driver instead of the ingame settings, then that might also be a cause. In such a case it might be time to upgrade your hardware. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
