camo not showing up

[CT center]

so i bought the AEC Mk II 10th indian infantry division camo but as i apply it to the AEC nothing happens... why it no work?

I think its a bug, I got several camos and many do not show up. You could try deleting the cache and view the camo again - that might fix it.

Why these camos aren't included in the main game data is a mystery, Instead they are downloaded on demand from a server which fails most of the time.

Gaijin need to fix this ASAP.

not really ^^ there are about 1000 vehicles in WT now, many of them got several different camos and more may be added (or changed) over the time. though many players might never get or see all of the different vehicles. the client size is already quite big - i personally dont even want to know how many gigabytes the client would take with all camos included ^^

...let alone how many (more) updates the client would receive just because new camos got added or changed ;)

actually they are getting downloaded from several different servers (of a CDN) but indeed some players cannot (reliably) connect to those server atm as it seems... this has already been reported and forwared to the devs for reviewing.

it may help leaving the customization screen open for some time with the camo selected (giving the client more time to download, reconnect or connect to a different server) and as you said clearing the cache may help sometimes as well (but bear in mind that this means already cached camos will be deleted as well and will have to be redownloaded again which may leave you with even less camos if your client fails downloading them as well.)

...other than that i guess there isn't much you can do but wait for Gaijin to find a solution (like adding more download servers across the world maybe)

Did you apply it on the vehicel selection screen before choosing a spawn point?
