Old AutoAim+

[aruff]

Hello, I have always used AutoAim+ – the mod_autoaim_indicator.
Until now, I only had to replace the file mod_autoaim_indicator.wotmod.
I have a special configuration because I had a stroke.

Now this mod no longer exists; it has been replaced.
I cannot configure the new mod from Aslain – and probably not in the way I need it.

How can I reactivate the old AutoAim+ mod?
I always get the following error message:

 

[Aslain]

Why you need old when there is a new? Install the normal AAI+ from the modpack

[aruff]

Thanks for your reply. Maybe you overlooked it. I had a stroke.

In the old AAI+ I could set the snap‑on to permanent. I cannot use it any other way.

If this is also possible with the new version, please tell me how.

the newer version has a in garage menu, right bottom corner <> symbol

Thanks for the hint.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t work like the previous version.
In the old AAI+ I could use the AutoAim function even when an enemy was behind a rock or other cover. The snap‑on worked on the enemy’s name, even in normal view.

The new one only works in sniper mode.
 

I adjusted it years ago together with PJOrion.
But it always worked with the Aslain mod before version 2.3 was installed.

Again, I need your help. Without it, I can no longer play.

Which files from the old AAI+ do I need to copy, and where do I have to put them so that it works again?

[Aslain]

No, it works exactly like previous version, and if you slide to 0, it will work infinitely. Behind obstacles it cannot work, it would be cheat. To snap the auto-aim you have to actively highlight the enemy to snap it.

[aruff]

Behind obstacles it cannot work

Yes, normally it can’t.
Again, because of my stroke I have reduced reaction speed.
The “snap‑always” option compensated for this to some extent.
And yes, I had to customize it specifically.

Where do I need to place the files so that the old mod works again?
 

[Aslain]

You still want to use old mod, while you can use the current one. Just customize it in garage, move the snapping slider to 0 position.

[aruff]

Thank you for your help.

Unfortunately, this doesn’t help me.
Because of my limitation, I cannot play with it.

I have a special version of mod_autoaim_indicator.wotmod.

Until now, you always copied all the files that were needed for it — with the old mod.
I was able to copy my customized .wotmod file, and the old mod worked as required.

I don’t want you to change anything. I will do that myself, and I have to live with it.

Where do I need to place the files — I have a res and src folder — so that mod_autoaim_indicator.wotmod is recognized again?
Can I somehow add the old mod into custom_mods?

 

 

[aruff]

Another way.
How can I add my own mod through the Aslain Modpack?

Not to answer for Aslain, but I suspect he's hesitant to tell anyone how to install an illegal mod, even if it's well-intended.

Heya 🙂

I used to use a script that edited the mod_autoaim_indicator.json but on reading this thread, I can see the options are now in-game, which is great. I think I have found a bug with the new options though. I have selected the "Enable AAI+ for wheeled vehicles" box and enabled 5 second time snap, but it does not appear to work. In battle MAG appears but then MAG just disappears when I move the crosshairs over an enemy, and does not autoaim onto the enemy.

Many thanks,

Zoe

Thanks Zoe, you actually found a real bug: the "Enable AAI+ for wheeled vehicles" option was inverted internally, so ticking it did the opposite of what it should. It's fixed in the next update, where ticking it will correctly make AAI+ lock onto enemies on wheeled vehicles.
