Start of the Israel Ground Forces Closed Beta Test, update for Dagor Engine to version 6.5 along with many new graphic features, ultra high resolution texture pack, new machines and more awaits you in the "Wind of Change" Major Update!
Graphics
Selecting of the game client has been added: minimal — has a number of limitations, designed to get acquainted with the game at resolutions less than 1080p; standard — to play at resolutions of 1080p and higher. Also additional ultra HQ textures for playing at 1440/2140p for ground vehicles and environments, aircraft and all models and environments in the game have been added.
New surface rendering with significant improvements in the appearance of the ground and other objects in the game environment has been added.
Thick smoke now casts a shadow.
Variety in the visual effects of explosions and large shell hits has been added.
New visual effect of dust, grass and leaves being lifted when ground vehicles shoot has been added.
New effect of dust blown off ground vehicles when shooting has been added.
Impulse from shots and explosions now affect nearby trees and vegetation: now they will be realistically deflected by the impulse and leaves will be blown off.
Visual effects used in locations have been improved and became more diverse.
Visual effects by destruction of the objects on locations have been reworked - significant optimization in terms of performance has been done.
The system of wave generation on water has been changed.

Naval fleet model, damage model, characteristic and weaponry changes:
Naval weaponry:
Fire control system has been added to:
Akebono
Ikazuchi
Radar has been added to:
RN Eugenio di Savoia
Kerch
Shell type changes:
200mm Type 88 AP round - from APC to APCBC
305mm Mark IIa semi-AP round - from CPC to SAPCBC
343mm semi-AP round- from CPC to SAPCBC
Naval characteristics, physics and damage model:
Anti-torpedo bulges have been fixed. Previously, they might not work against torpedoes with fewer explosives than what they were designed for.
Hull break parameters of destroyers and cruisers have been adjusted for torpedo hits in the centre of a ship. Destroyers could be insta-killed by torpedoes with the explosives weight over 300 kg. Torpedoes with over 500 kg of explosives are able to hull break destroyers by hitting at almost any part. Light cruisers can have their hull broken by torpedoes of over 500 kg of explosives when hit in the middle of a ship. Ammo stowages can also be blown up by torpedo hits.
In Arcade battles, parameters of the torpedo dive before it hits a battleship or heavy cruiser. Previously, a torpedo may lack a depth, and it might hit the armour belt, especially when a ship motions on waves.
Reload time penalty has been disabled in the AB, when an ammo elevator is damaged or destroyed.
All naval guns have had their shell dispersion ellipse adjusted. Based on historical materials that were used to fix the ballistics of shells in the previous update (the list was published in the notes for update “Winged Lions”), we recalculated the size of the shell dispersion ellipses in a salvo. The size of the ellipse has been significantly reduced, allowing you to hit a target at a greater distance more often.
Armour belts and vertical armoring of battleships have been separated into destructible plates. Armour belt plates and internal vertical longitudinal armour in battleships can now be destroyed by kinetic and explosive damage. For example, to destroy a 350 mm armour plate, 2-4 direct hits with a 305 mm armour-piercing projectile will be required. The lower the kinetic energy of the projectile, the less damage it can cause to the armour plate. Projectiles with relatively low energy are not able to destroy the armour plate. After destruction, the armour plate will be considered destroyed and passes the shock wave and some of the fragments behind, and can also pass the armour-piercing projectile, which will nearly not lose its penetrating capability.
The flooding mechanics have been reworked for all ships. The capacity of the drainage pumps is now evenly distributed over the entire vessel. The time of pumping water depends entirely on the serviceability of the pumps and the amount of water in the interior of the ship. In general, the pumping time of one compartment has been reduced, and the pumping of several compartments at the same time has become more levelled.
Crew compartments have been redistributed on all bigger ships, the crew has also been distributed among all compartments and modules in such a way that most of it is concentrated in the bridge (or in the area of the conditional bridge). The smallest amount is located at the extremities. And sometimes they don't exist at all.
Positions of the plot rooms have been corrected on RN Eugenio di Savoia, Kerch, and US cruisers and battleships.
Positions of modules and armour have been corrected for SGB Grey Goose and SGB Grey fox.
Size of fuel tanks has been corrected for the Т31 and Т22 destroyers, in accordance to the blueprints.
Position of the ammo stowages of the main calibre guns has been corrected in accordance to the blueprints:
HMS Calpe
HMS Brissenden
USS Helena
Armoring has been adjusted in accordance to the blueprints:
Scharnhorst
USS Wyoming
USS North Dakota
USS Pensacola
USS Northampton
USS Portland
Admiral Graf Spee - armour has been adjusted. Central part of the armour belt: 100mm=>80mm. (Source: RM 25/7020 RM 25/7270 RM 25/7232)
Naval Visual models and visual parts:
All ships with cannon artillery now feature uneven salvo mechanics. Previously, all guns and turrets fired simultaneous salvoes. Now, there is an interval between shots fired from different guns and turrets on a ship. The interval duration depends on conditional excellence of the fire control systems: the older the ship, the longer the interval between shots in a salvo. For example, a salvo of casemate guns located on the battery deck, in single casemates or grouped in platoons, is able to fire only by command of the first crew member, has the longest interval between shots. Post-war automatic and semi-automatic guns with remote fire control will fire simultaneously, as before. The sequence of shots in a salvo is random each time. The new mechanics are designed to diversify the visuals of the game.
USS Raleigh - AA guns have been changed to comply with the layout of the year 1942.
Flags animation has been corrected:
USS Barker
USS Welborn C Wood
USS Raleigh
SMS Westfalen
HMS Kent
RM Eugenio Di Savoia - shields on 20mm AA guns have been removed.

Interface
Resolution of icons in the modification window, suspended weaponry and icons in the quick access panel (shells, artillery call, scouting, smoke grenades etc) have been improved.
Game mechanics
Fire extinguishment assistance is now available for all allies (previously was available for squad mates and light tanks only).
Repair assistance is now available for all allies (previously was available for squad mates and light tanks only). Squad mates and light tanks accelerate the repair x3, other types of allied vehicles - x2.
Ships now provide repair assistance automatically, instead of by holding a button, since the assistance does not impose any restrictions on them, unlike ground vehicles.
A tooltip has been added with a suggestion to thank an ally after successfully helping to repair or extinguish a fire by pressing the “Radio message to the team” button once. When you press the button, a “Thank you!” radio message will be sent to the team chat.
A tooltip has been added with a suggestion to apologize to the allies after the destruction of a member of their team by pressing the “Radio message to the team” button once. When you press the button, a radio message “Sorry!” will be sent to the team chat.
Manual target designation has been added for radars. 2 control axes are used to move the designation cue. This designation method can be used instead of target cycling.
Changes specific to the PlayStation®5.
Ultra-high definition textures presets have been added as DLC: for ground vehicles and environments, aircraft and all models and environments in the game. DLC will be available in one of the upcoming server updates.
Changes specific to the Xbox Series X.
