xvm damage log position changes.

[Darth_Clicker]

I can drag the xvm damage log into the desired position and it will remain until I close the client.  But the next time I restart the client and play a battle, I have to re-position the damage log.  Does anyone else have this problem?

I was able to reproduce this, however this is one of these problems I have no influence on. All I can do is to set the log at fixed position, otherwise ask on koreanrandom.

The arty log mod does the same thing. Wondered how I could move the panels to where I want them and then they stay there until I have to update the mods. Sorry @Aslain I know it's a seperate topic.

No prob, but fyi with the arty log mod it doesn't just do it when you reload the game it does it every battle

[Aslain]

It's not updated yet, I will remove it for now.

It's not that big of an issue where you need to remove it, it's position is a pain yes because it blocks other important information but it's still a handy mod

Sounds like issue from xvm damage log too. I will ask the author why.

Yeah that's why I brought it up, all the others stay in place when you move them, just the arty log mod for me since I don't use the xvm damage log

I was hoping that I was the only one having the problem and it was simply me doing something wrong.  I searched through the xvm files and could not find anything to change.  But,  I do not possess the Aslain's Magic Pixie Dust.  I just switched to GambitER in the modpack.  It stays put.

Gambiter hasn't done me wrong yet and I love the XFT version for the placement they hold on my screen.

Maybe Darth Clicker can ask about it in OldSchool topic, he knows german, that's about Arty Log.

[My_Gaming_TV]

I seen you took out arty log mod and readded it but was it ever "updated or fixed" cause it still doesn't stay put when I move it to another area of the screen

[Aslain]

It's re-added but it's the same mod. I don't know why it don't save its position, I never used it before so I don't know if this is normal or not.

ive used arty log for a long time and noticed I had to move it into position every battle , the way I got round this was go into the config file and change the position  and wolla  it stays in position where I want it all the time now

I wasnt aware before, that it's resetting its position, I have asked the author myself today, since nobody did it for me.

I found a switch to force xvm damage logs to save their position, it will be in next modpack.

I accidentally drug mine to a position where the damage taken is now off the screen, how do I make it visible again, what do I edit?

It saves to AppData\Roaming\Wargaming.net\WorldOfTanks\xvm\DamageLog so delete everything in that location

It took awhile, but I decided that since this path you gave me includes "Roaming" you must be talking about a registry setting. My game install directory has no path anything like that. My registry (win 7), doesn't have anything like that.  I have a file damaglog.xc under J:\Games\World_of_Tanks\res_mods\configs\xvm\Aslain, and I tried renaming that to make it re-create, that had no effect. I also tried editing some x/y values I found in the file itself for damage log, and that had no effect as well.

 

I went back to thinking about editing the file and was looking at this:

 

 "lastHit": {
      "$ref": { "path":"damageLog.log" },
      "x": -120,
      "y": 200,

 

I thought "hmm, x index is negative, what if I flip that flag to postive? BINGO, back where it should be, well, visible anyway.

No it's not registry, it's a location on your hdd. Open File Explorer and enter this path:  %AppData% then follow to Wargaming.net\WorldOfTanks\xvm\DamageLog
