Thanks Quaksen

I noticed that the Gold/Convert XP options also not working.  Ties in with server issue.

Repair of vehicle and resupply of directives, ammo, repair kits etc. not working in garage after the battle.   I seem to recall this has happened before.  Anyone else got the problem guys?

J

This was caused by an issue with WG last time I think, and not related to Modpack?

Been kicked off 3 times today.  Always Cliff Map.  Different tanks.  May be an issue with that map ?

I asked a question about changing the cursor but got zero replies.  Simpler question, does anyone know if the cursor is embedded in the game or is located as a graphic or Ico file in one of the initialisation/setup folders?

Thanks.

J 

Has anyone played about with the cursor in the Garage?  Does this exist as an icon file in one of the game folders or is it embedded in the game installation?  I would like to change it for something lighter as I have a 2 monitor set up and the current dark pointer is difficult to keep track of when switching screens.  Not aware of any mods to tweak it in the WOT mods folders.

Thanks

J

How about all text attributes for that particular player White?  Can you use the "bold" text attribute in the players panel ?

J

Interesting, I see what you mean about being busy.  I have a 3840 x 2160 monitor so when playing on max resolution the text is too small to read anyway (I even bought a pair of 70cms focal length spectacles to help).  Would it be possible just to make any blacklist player text all Red or yellow for example.  I suppose if a player is on your blacklist he/she is there for a reason and you won't be too bothered about their stats.  I do tweak the battleLabelsTemplates file on updating the mod pack to centralise the text in the middle of the screen.   Just something I do every update, also change the Freecam toggle to F12 as the shift F3 combo is problematical.  

"totalEfficiency": {
      "enabled": true,
      "updateEvent": "PY(ON_TOTAL_EFFICIENCY), ON_PANEL_MODE_CHANGED",
      "x": 2,                                                                                                                        (I change this to 1802)
      "y": "{{battletype-key=epic_battle?-268|-232}}",
      "width": "{{py:xvm.isStuns?350|260}}",
      "height": 22,
      "textFormat": { "size": 16 }, "screenVAlign": "bottom",
      "format": "<textformat tabstops='[65,130,196,261]' leading='-2' ><img

I think the work you do is amazing on these mods.  I used to do a lot of programming in the "early days" of programming, on GFA Basic on the Atari ST, but too long in the tooth to learn Python from scratch now I think.

Hi guys, 

I do seem to keep missing the fact that someone on my blacklist is in battle.  I only blacklist people for things like deliberate suicide, team killing etc. and I believe they should be indicated in your player panel by the chat being disallowed.  I never seem to see this.  Is there a potential way of Making any tanks in your blacklist very obvious so you see it before the battle?  I use the player panels in the mod rather than vanilla.

Thanks

OK Aslain,  The question was from ZoeBallz originally, thanks..

J

Log files attached.  I actually went to Champi's page and downloaded the mod direct.  Rebooted the game and the full Champi list is present through the Mods list menu.  It looks like Aslain wasn't installing the Mod maybe? 

J

Aslains_WoT_Logs.zip

Went to Champi website and downloaded his zip file, extracted.  Already had 3 files, installed the missing little helper file and it has added loads of other options to the MOd List m enu item.  Toggled Show equipment usage tooltip to enabled and now shows more than 12 tanks

It's in the list.   Maybe I have a conflict?

Okay Quaksen, Ihave had a look in the Little Helper collection, don't see a toggle.  THis is what I have on the Little Helper collection.  Have I missed an update?

This is a question someone else has raised.  For accounts with a lot of equipment like vents installed, it looks like there is a limit of 12 tank names displayed, then it says "and an additional XX Tanks".  My assumption is that this is a limit set in the mod as if it was not limited, then it may exceed limits for the dialog box size or something ?  Anyone agree/disagree?  Is there a way to to display all tanks with that equipment fitted?

Thanks

J

I assume that WG have once again issued an untested micropatch that prevents tanks repairing or auto resupply ammo.  You can only play a tank once at the moment as you can't repair.  Unless this is localised to EU1 (unlikely).   My Su8 is sat there unrepaired with a pop up every 10 seconds that says "Failed to repair SU-8 automatically.  Repair your vehicle manually".  Which also doesn't work.  I have other players in my clan who don't use Aslain Mods saying the same, so assumption is micropatch this morning has wrecked the game.  Same message with regard to ammo.

J

Update, the vehicle did eventually repair, but ammo still not resupplying.  Apparently there is an issue with resources generally.

J

Thanks Aslain, 

I thought it would be just me being blind as usual!.  Have a good weekend.

In the latest update, a new mod has been added.  Just updated but I couldn't see it.    The mod has a line number, 960.  

Added new mod: Achievement Notification (by Pruszko) [mod #960]

How do you correlate line number to the specific section in the Mod Install programme?  May be a stupid question, but as the install doesn't show line numbers, it could be 960 out of a 1000 lines, or 960 out of 10,000 lines?  Is there a text file or similar that lets you see line numbers against install options?  Apologies if I am missing something pretty basic.

Thx

Link 1 is downloading issue 6, Link 2 is downloading Issue 7.

J

Did a bit more googling and found an answer.  I wasn't aware that each individual programme running can be muted in the Volume Mixer.  It only appears as an option when the client is running.  I didn't mute it intentionally, so I suspect there must be a hotkey/key combo that got hit inadvertently and muted the audio.  All good now, and I have learned something new.  I played one game in vanilla to try it out and just reinforced the fact that Aslain's mods make this game actually playable.  Awful without it.  Thanks for all your efforts Aslain!

J

As per usual, just an issue with WOT and not related to the mods.  While playing last night, sound completely disappeared from the game.  Music, battle effects the works.  Just flashed it up again this morning, with Mods and in Safe mode and is the same.  No sound at all.  Sound is fine on everything else, music, video, YouTube et al, just not in game.   Just done a integrity check and has highlighted nothing, sound is working in the Game Centre as well, just played one of the promotional videos.  I guess I'll just reinstall the game, just curious to see if it has happened to anyone else.

J

My bad, I had inadvertently clicked Own Damage Purple... sorted now.  Just need to do your fix for Reticle Dispersion outlined on the post a while back as getting the default settings error message.  Managed to get 2 days without crashes so far playing on single monitor.  Amazing 🙂

J

Thanks for response Aslain, I have never edited the XVM configs before, so not sure how I ended up with yellow damage in previous versions.  I do have some previous config files so could try swapping them see if it brings it back.  Just updating to 08 following micropatch so will turn reticle pro back on as well.

J

Hmm,  there is no option as I thought to make my individual damage a different colour in the floating damage.  Is this tied into the Reticle Dispersion Pro option guys ?

J

Just done a clean install and slimmed down the PC a little.  I've got a clean install of Win 11, latest NVIDIA, all drivers updated with Norton Driver updater and latest version of mods.  What I'm doing is only using one monitor for a few days to see if it is stable using your mods.  I'm saving a boot disk backup with Acronis, then if I add the other monitor and start  getting crashes again I can go back to this build and play with single monitor and look at getting a new Graphics card.  I was in touch with the supplier of my PC about flashing the VBIOS.  Its a EVGA RTX 2080 Gaming Black.  But they have no recommended firmware updater and data file.  Don't really want to brick the card by risking a non approved mod.  

Issue 8 just installed, I turned off reticle dispersion as I was getting the error mentioned in other posts about the settings.  And my damage used to be coloured so you could see the hits you were doing, but that's disappeared.   Need to go back in the config and re-enable it.  I like my yellow floating damage 🙂

Thanks for latest Mod Pack...

J

I'm thinking this may a combination issue.  The game is installed on a 970 EVO SSD.  Maybe it is just to busy for the drive and it is overheating, so I will install a new instance of the game on a conventional 2.5 4TB HD, see if that makes a difference.  Need to get one issue sorted before I tackle the Black Screen Graphics card problem.  I may have to just throw this PC out of the window and get another one.  I always built my own before this, never had so much trouble before.
