I really hate having to ask this but I tried searching this website for an instructional document that explains how to install these mods for the first time, but here I am without any other recourse. It seems that every couple of years I have to reinstall everything on my computer because of some virus getting on there, and there is no way that I can remember what I was told the last time. Therefore, I would think that it would save everyone some grief if there was a link to some document, tha
will explain step by step how to get the correct pathfile start the WGcenter, press the Play button and check if the game is starting. you will see a button called Game settings, click that and a drop down menu open, then click on the Show in folder (as shown in pic below)
once you click Show in folder it will open file explorer where you installed your WOT use the EXACT same pathfile that is open for the installer. (picture below is my pathfile, yours can/will be different)
