Those who have issue with Fatal Error when trying to launch War thunder CDK for Steam version, here is the instruction how to fix it.
1. War thunder CDK will install at C:Program files (its correct path if you downloaded the game from War thunder website but if you downloaded through Steam then follow next steps, for steam user please leave this folder open as you will need it later)
2. Steam installs its games in different folder path such as (if you let it be default while you installed steam) C:Program Files (x86)SteamSteamAppscommonWar Thunder(this is a default steam game folder)
3. If you have steam War thunder, make sure the path for CDK and steam War thunder is open in different windows.
4. Now need to copy the whole CDK folder to Steam War thunder folder mentioned above (if its the same location for you)
5. Now comes confusing part; [Changing Shortcut Target and Start in path]
a) On your desktop you should see 3 icons that are: WTAssetViewer, LocationEd and WTMissioneditor
6. Now right click on WTAssetViewer and select properties, window will open, there you will be at shortcut tab.
7. In Shortcut tab you should be able to see Target and Start in that both have file path (both need to be changed)
8. The text that is in the parenthesis in the Target path change the file path with the new folder location of your game with CDK in it which is in steam folder ex:
C:Program Files (x86)SteamSteamAppscommonWar ThunderWarThunderCDK (make sure you leave the assetviewer.cmd part in there, DO NOT DELETE THAT PART and make sure it's still in parenthesis.
9. For the Start in section, just change file path to ex:
C:Program Files (x86)SteamSteamAppscommonWar ThunderWarThunderCDK
10. When you click apply, a pop up message will appear requesting admin approval, just click yes and done.
11. Follow the steps 5-10 for LocationEd and WTmissionEditor
