How to Use a Config System: Save and Switch Your War Thunder Cheat Setups

War Thunder Cheats · Published 5 Feb 2026

Overview

A War Thunder cheat config system saves your settings, so you never rebuild your setup from scratch. This guide shows you what to save and how to organize your configs.

What a Config Saves

A config stores your menu choices in one file. That includes your aimbot options, ESP layout, crosshair, and keybinds.

Why Use Multiple Configs

Different matches call for different setups. Instead of changing dozens of options by hand, save each setup once and load it when you need it.

Close combat: a small FOV and fast smoothness.

Long range: a larger Max Distance with Prediction on.

Awareness only: ESP on, aimbot off.

Clean view: minimal labels, no bots, no teammates.

How to Save a Config

Adjust your settings until you like the result.

Open the config section in the Misc menu.

Enter a clear name, such as "close-combat."

Save the config.

How to Load a Config

Open the config section, select your saved file, and load it. Your settings apply right away.

Tips for Better Configs

Use descriptive names. You will find the right file faster.

Change one setting at a time. You will see what each change does.

Save a backup. Keep a stable version before you experiment.

Set Up the Rest of Your Menu First

Before you save, set your Menu Keybind, Unload Keybind, Language, and DPI Scale. Your config then starts every session in a comfortable state.

Final Thoughts

A War Thunder cheat config turns a long setup into a quick load. Build two or three configs for your main playstyles, and update them as you learn what works.

FAQ

Can I keep more than one config? Yes. Save as many as you need.

Do configs include keybinds? Check your menu to confirm which settings each config stores.
