    By the way, there IS mod to do it. Saw it recently in Aslain's. Not sure if it's part of XVM.
    Just saying that there is such mod.

    There is Aslains mod that changes the colors to his tank class color scheme. Im talking about changing them to all one color like color blind mode does. There has to be a way to make a mod to over ride the games colorblind mode so you can pick your own color. Im just not good enough to make it haha.

    That two files are from different mod, they are not part of the Outlining Colors by Kurzdor

    I see that now. In my haste to update mods I didn't notice those are two different mods.

    Hey there, I am the developer of Outlining Colors 🙂

    Also, thanks for using mod 🙂 It gives a lot of motivation to do more.

     

    First off I would like to wish you well and hope you and your family are safe. Second I would like to thank you for making this mod so I don't have to edit and send files to friends and clan mates that also can't see WG colors that well. 

     

    I hadn't updated mods since the #10 installer and reading through the change log I saw where it said you could select colors in game. I didn't pay attention to who the mod author was since for the longest time there was only Rajcels mod. I edited his mod to be a color I can see best so I had his config file in my custom mod.zip. Not realizing after the install I now had two mods doing the same thing causing neither to work. Now that you and Aslain have pointed out they are two different mods I did some more testing. 

    Here is your mod with normal color mode working as intended. 

    Spoiler

    Here is you mod in color blind mode which most people will be using while using this mod.

    Spoiler

    As you can see your mod does not work in color blind mode. The silhouette should match the OTM.

     

    In Rajcels config file there are two separate setting for each color mode. Don't worry their mod is also broken with the new outlines they have in game now.

    If you could add a color blind option to your mod that would not only fix the problem but make it the best mod for people that cant see WGs colors that well. I have been asking around and trying to figure out how to make a color blind mod to select your own colors as yours does but for everything. Not just tank outline or OTM. Editing xvm files for OTM markers and mini map icons for friends and clan mates over the years gets tiring after a while. Not knowing how to code in python has also set me back but I have managed to change OTM, mini map icons, player panel HP bars, with xvm and silhouettes with Rajcels mod. The only thing I can't or haven't found a mod to change is the score board tank icons across the top of the screen. 

     

    So to close this up is a small suggestion or two. First I would make this mod for color blind mod or add an option to switch between the two. Second I would also add the ability to change your own tanks silhouette color like you can in Rajcels. Finally for some motivation to do more would be a mod with a color picker that would override the color blind mode or even the regular color mode since it would change everything in game. 

  3. You can make a zip file and put it in Aslin_Modpack/Custom_mods. In the zip file you would want a folder structure to the same place the .json is. So make a folder named mods/configs/rajcel/changeSilhouetteColors/changeSilhouetteColors.json then zip the mod folder. This way when you update your mods at the end of installation it will install what ever you have in the zip file

  4. I tested it using just that mod and nothing else. Also if you use UI scale by OldSkool it will do the same. At least with Goofy67s you can change the ui in game by hold crtl and alt and scrolling the mouse wheel. if you need to get to the equipment screen. If you use OldSkool you have to close out of the game and edit the json to change the UI scale. I tested it on every resolution on window and full screen. All of them have the bug. I actually like it since you dont click through windows and open the equipment screen every time you click OK on something. I would recommend removing the OldSkool options under x1.05 thought.

  5. You latest update

    - removed XVM option: Show HP dynamic circles on the minimap [obsolete, since they're available in the game client now]

    They are not obsolete as myself and a few others i know have changed to enemy colors to be easier for us to see. With this not being in the mod pack we will now have to go back and turn them on manually every time we update mods. Also the ones in the game client are not the same size as the ones XVM uses.

    You could turn off the options you dont want from Little Helper Collection. Then you’d get just the button text.

     

    The problem is that even when they are turned off they are still called upon when loading and if one thing in it causes problems it break everything. 

  7. How hard would it be to get these reticles made? 1 is Arcade - Dashed and 2 is Sniper - Horizontal. These are obviously Hawgs type 1 I recolored and edited a little bit. The line at the top of 2 should be near the very top to help line up with hit markers like you can the vanilla Diagonal reticle. Would be nice if the aim circle and autoloader shells were the same color as well. The second image is of the Blue Light mod with the shell count and HP on the left of the reticle. Showing real HP not % like it was changed to some time ago. 

    If blue light mod would just put a line at the top in sniper mode and change the HP back to real HP not % that would be perfect. I have no idea how to get ahold of the creator to even ask. Tried posting this on Hawgs discord but i cant post images on there to show examples.

  8. champi.littlehelpercollection_1.45.wotmod this is your problem. Also the other option in the installer to make the black list and friends list bigger will cause this bug

     

    EDIT: extended_blacklist.wotmod also causes the problem

     

    For the future do not pick extended blacklist if you have little helper. it does the same as little helper and can cause problems. 

  9. All tanks being highlighted when ready in a CW or platoon has been going on since the christmas update. It wasnt enough of a problem to report it as it wasnt game breaking. I thought about installing only that mod to see if it does it without XVM but never got around to doing it. It looks like shit but again wasnt game breaking so i never bothered to remedy it.
