Installing Next Pro for War Thunder
Before starting, completely close War Thunder. You will need a valid Next Pro license key, the latest Loader and the required Windows components.
1. System Preparation
Install the required Windows components before launching Next Pro for the first time.
Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable
Download and install the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for 64-bit Windows:
Download Visual C++ Redistributable x64
If the direct download does not work, use the official Microsoft page:
Visual C++ Redistributable Downloads
.NET Desktop Runtime
If the Loader reports that .NET or a required Runtime is missing, install the current .NET Desktop Runtime for Windows x64:
DirectX Runtime
Make sure DirectX components are installed and Windows is fully updated. If the Loader reports missing DirectX components, use the official Microsoft installer:
Download DirectX End-User Runtime
Restarting your computer after installing the components is recommended.
2. Download the Loader
Download the latest version of the Loader:
Download the Loader using the link above.
If it is provided in an archive, extract it into a separate folder.
Make sure War Thunder is completely closed.
Right-click the Loader and select Run as Administrator.
3. Create an Account and Activate Your Key
If this is your first time using Next, create your account directly through the Loader.
Open the Sign Up tab.
Enter your desired username.
Enter a valid email address.
Create a password.
Enter the Next Pro license key received after your purchase from GetCheats.io.
Click Register.
After successful registration, the license key will be linked to your account.
If you already have an account, do not register again. Simply sign in through the Loader.
4. Select Next Pro
After signing in, open the Products tab.
Next Pro War Thunder should appear in your purchased products.
Select the product.
If Next Pro does not appear, make sure you are signed in to the account where the license key was activated.
5. Load Next Pro
War Thunder must remain completely closed at this stage.
Open Next Pro War Thunder under Products.
Open the Injection tab.
Click Load.
Wait until the loading process is completely finished.
Important: load Next Pro through the Loader before starting War Thunder.
6. Launch War Thunder
After Next Pro loads successfully, wait for the Loader process to finish.
Open Steam or Gaijin Launcher.
Launch War Thunder.
Wait for the game to fully load.
Press INSERT to open the Next Pro menu.
Once the menu appears, configure the available features and save your preferred configuration.
7. Display Mode
Borderless Windowed mode is recommended for correct menu rendering.
If the menu is missing, flickering or displaying incorrectly, switch War Thunder to Borderless Windowed mode and repeat the launch process.
