My crashes\mouse going inop has dropped to almost ZERO since I quit using the AAS mod. Mine would Crash To Desktop about every 40 minutes and the mouse would quit working in-game every couple of hours. I just did a 4 hour session without a hiccup till just now. CTD. But, that is much, much better! The Aiming "+" and the other SafeShot work great together! NO more AAS for me!

Aslain, you have made my three-yr-old niece VERY HAPPY! She LOVES the new sixth-sense "Shark"! She has finally got it that the Tank is Rudy and the dog is Szarik, but the closest she can come is "Shark"... She finds great humor in that a Dog can be a Shark too! She has also figured out that the Red Dots on the mini-map make him bark (she likes the three bark the best) so she is always trying to get me closer to a Red Dot, which unfortunately is very unconducive to my Professional Camper style of play.

I actually keep WoT on my E:\ drive so it is the only thing in the \Games folder there is WoT, but good point about other games locating themselves in the C:\Games folder. SO..., just do it with the World_of_Tanks folder and approach it that way. I have been using CCleaner for a LONG time, and only have had to use the Restore function once, when I got impatient and didn't realize some Microsoft update was running in the background and it didn't like having the registry messed with. But all I had to do was do the CCleaner restore, re-install the Microsoft crap and I was good to go. I find that program much more enjoyable then going line-by-line for hours and hours and hours through the Registry. 2 each his own!

Here is my solution to the above problem of ALWAYS having to download a fresh game from WoT. Step one: Delete C:\games and then run CCleaner (free program) to remove registry issues. Step two: Download fresh install from WoT. Step three: Rename C:\Games to C:\GamesStock Step four: Right click on GamesStock and hit copy. Step five: Right click on C:\ and paste the game back to the C:\ Drive. Now you have a file called C:\GamesStock-Copy Step six: Re-name GamesStock-Copy to Games. Step seven: Install mods. As soon as Aslain comes out with a new Mod, rename C:\Games to C:\GamesV4.4.xx REPEAT steps 4 thru 7. Now if you have to go back to a previous version it is VERY easy.... no more LONG downloads from WoT, and if the current Mods don't work right it is very easy to go back to a previous version just by renaming a couple of files. PLUS, if you need a vanilla C:\Games to deal with WoT, just do steps 4 thru 6 and you are good to go! simple like that :)

I think I might be the one that Grandorf is quoting a WoT response from. Attached is the trials and tribulations I went though ... maybe there is something there for you if are having CTDs, Freezing, etc., etc. FreezingScreen.txt

Voted #1 because it is easier to see at a glance, but then I like the 3-D Arabic BEST!

Could of been worse... they could of BANNED you from the whole game for a week! SO, just be a good little boy, keep your mouth shut, ONLY color in-between the lines, and in a week they will let you play with the other little kiddies in the sandbox.

I am VERY stubborn 2! But sometimes you just have to "Mod" your approach to a "non-Modded" World. GOOD NEWS! With my solution....NO more Bloody Walls! (sorry 'bout the English pun)

Good Luck 2 you, Sir. BUT...You will NEVER make past the Mod Censor stage. I have tried and tried and they will not budge until you respond to them with non-Modded files, screen shots, etc., etc. That is why I keep a copy of the game that I just have to re-name to" /Games " and deal with them from that games file. In your case, just how bloody does your head have to be until you realize the wall is only going to stay the same? This is how I deal with it now:

Does anyone have any idea why I can not cut and paste to the Forums, but I can cut and paste to the Shout Box?

DO NOT contact WoT about ANYTHING if you have even ONE SINGLE Mod installed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You will only get their standard "YOU have MODS Installed, SHAME, SHAME, SHAME you BAD disgusting person, you" form letter. I have gotten this "form letter" like 5 times now ... and YES I must be a slow learner ... what can I say, twice should of been enough? .. lol After all, I am not just your average ordinary dummy ... I am an Extraordinary dummy. WHY couldn't they of just told me it was broken in the first place, since they already knew they had a problem with it, why, why, why did they have to send me down the "YOU HAVE MODS" path?????????????????????????

V4.4.14 and Szarik barks!

Don't know why this forum dropped my files, but I will post them one more time to see what happens... FreezingScreen.txt

Szarik barks for my niece no problem with V4.4.13, and I run; UT Announcer, BattleMessenger_Chat filter by Aslain, Gun Sounds by Vito, Gnomefather's engine sounds w/o radio, Hit sounds by Vito, Grandpa's favorite, Destroyed object sounds by Vito, and Sabot UP. I do NOT run anything by Spoter other then the Aiming Help mods; Server turret extended. (His stuff is just too buggie :( ... ) and I don't use any of the Hanger Mods other then the Carrousel. MAYBE all you need is a three-year-old to push the button? Works for me ... lol

This site wont let me cut and paste for some reason (or let me attach a .zip file) so I had to do it by uploading a .txt file. go figure. If you read the .txt file you will see why I added the two screen shots. FreezingScreen.txt

The Store is back to working OK, and the Equipment Sale just ended, so must of been that??? I am using the same modded games file that didn't work before 4:20am, and now works at 4:40am without me doing a thing.

Here are the files with NOTHING selected.... XVM was not activated, and the "Store" works OK. _Aslain_logs.zip python.log

With the vanilla stock game - no problem in the "Store", with nothing selected on "Setup - Aslain's WoT Modpack", one CAN still buy in the "Store". With JUST the Color Scheme and Vehicle Contour Icons selected one can NO longer buy in the "Store". (Of course with just the Icons selected it automatically enables XVM.) Included is the "Stock" python.log that works...just in case it helps??? _Aslain_logs.zip python.log python.log

V4.4.12 and Szarik still barks ... Yeah! (But I don't use any of the Spoter mods other then the Auto-Aim box.)

Back to working again with V4.4.11, even with the "Sabot UP" sound. Don't know what changed but ...Yeah!

DANG! after 4.4.10 "ME no make Rudy bark " :( Nothing in the res_mods/0.9.8/ folder other then a readme file and nothing in the res-mods/0.9.8.1/ folder that resembles that file...???... _Aslain_logs.zip python.log

YEAH!!!!!!!!!! Szarik barks again with mods! Now I don't have to stop the game every 7 and 1/2 minutes and then make the stock game live to avoid the "ME make Rudy bark" syndrome. (She is a VERY persistent child/mini-adult.)

Too Funny! The minimum you can select is the icons ... and it took my a LONG time to disable mod-by-mod to get down to nothing at all ... should of started with nothing and gone that way ... lol

Here are the "No Bark" .zips _Aslain_logs.zip python.log

I have it nailed down to the "Vehicle Contour Icons" causing the problem. Aslain, could you PLEASE take a look at the .zip files for the reason why ... you would make my three year old niece VERY happy to make Rudy bark without me having to load the stock game up every time for her. Attached to this post is the "Bark OK" .zips _Aslain_logs.zip python.log
