What is a DxDiag log and how do you obtain it?


The DxDiag log

The DxDiag log (file extension: .txt) is a text document that is created by Microsoft's DirectX Diagnostic Tool, showing non-personalized information about the hardware and drivers of your system. The DxDiag log file helps our technical administration to identify whether the problem you encounter is happening due to incompatibilities or issues with certain hardware or driver components on your system. It is especially important with display or sound device issues, as it helps to identify the devices and their drivers easily.


How to obtain your DxDiag log:


Obtaining the DxDiag log is fast and easy. Just perform the following steps:

1. Press 'Windows Key + R' to open Microsoft's Run function


2. Type in 'dxdiag' in the input field and click 'OK'

What is a client log (.clog) and how do you obtain it?




The client log

Client logs (file extension: .clog) are files generated by the War Thunder client and show a reflection of all the actions a user has performed in one secluded game session. As soon as the launcher initializes the start of the game, a new client log is being started, which is finalized when the client is closed (the game session ends). Besides recording the actions of the user, it also records the client-side calculations and has a built-in error catching system, that will allow the technical administration to identify game code or synchronization issues efficiently.

Client logs are being saved once after a game session has ended. If you have an error that is reproducible, you can help increasing the expressiveness of your client log by starting a new game session, reproducing the error and then exiting the game ...

Since the pause in the current season of World War mode, we have worked on the further optimization of game servers.


Today we are resuming game days and the first play window will be held from 14:00 GMT on the 7th of July until 22:00 GMT on the 8th of July which will help us to evaluate the work which has been done.


On the basis of the collected statistics and your feedback we will decide about the continuation of the current WWM season or further delay and transfer it to a later date. You can report any possible issues in this special topic.


We are sorry for any inconvenience!
