Will Battle Assistant be coming back to the mod pack? Please.

After using WG's attempt at this mod I have to ask......."How do you screw up something so simple?".

Anyone else tired of the continuous up and down and angle changes every time the sight passes over a rock, tank, bush or imaginary obstacle?

When the Battle Assistant mod author fixes it - major changes behind the scenes since WG added their own, is causing troubles.

So last thing was like 15-20 days to solve it.

This is what Battle Assistant author things about WG mod version: http://forum.worldoftanks.ru/index.php?/topic/1389614-0917-battle-assistant-новые-возможности-в-игре/page__st__4680__pid__46682184#entry46682184

 

Clumsy Google translate:

Describe your relation to the new regime of art made by the developers.
Pros . Smooth movement of the camera, an automatic transition from top-down to the new regime, but would be better if it was optional.
 

Cons . Hey, developers! more information for you. A feeling that the reason why do you need to turn on the trajectory of the projectile chamber, no one thought about it. It made as if it was an indication of "let's turn the camera both in VA and add a little beauty." This does not work. The main objective of Battle Assistant - do whittling down arte more like a reduction of other types of tanks, and a simple rotation of the camera for this is not enough. We need to change the projection, what I said is still 2.5 years ago WGDC here . In fact you get the same ellipse, stretched on the terrane, side view, but not the circle. Aim in this mode is a little easier than the top-down, but it could be done much better. And to say that this is the first version, which will continue to improve a little bit strange, because all the information about what, why and for what has been done in the VA, you have been, but it seems no one is engaged in the design of this feature (pre-production) you seriously. The second point, which I also said in the video - a display obstacles in a VA mode. It is not enough simply to draw a red line, the player needs to see that it blocks the shot - you have not done. All this seems a trifle, but it is these small details is drastically changing UX when playing on arte.

For my part, when implementing VA stumbled upon engine limits and was forced to balance in order to draw information on more accurate and correct, or to have some bugs in uravlenii and display. But you have such problems simply should not be.

 

Now that had to be done properly. First, enter the last orthographic projection in the game client. Only when such a projection information for the arts will not be prone to conversion and prospects will look more natural. Of course, the reduction is still not round, but the distortion will now only depend on the gravity of the projectile and the terrain geometry. Secondly, the presence of obstacles camera should jump on it, it can be done smoothly and optional - see what blocks the shot is very important for the game on arte.

 

In any case, I think the VA update to 0.9.18, but the code has to be heavily processed, and as I have now is not so much free time, it may take 10-20 days.

As you should be able to read in the post just above yours - it'll take time before Battle Assistant is fixed by it's mod author. :)

I'm so glad that reven86 is still working on this mod.  

 

For my part the actual camera view isnt an issue, or the way it bounces around up and down.

 

What p***es me off more about WG's new camera for arty, is that it does not revert to the standard top down camera after you have been in shotgun mode.

 

So I am very glad the BattleAssistant mod will be back, eventually..    +1 internets to reven86 :)

Current BA has two keys, G and Middle mouse. No need to set it up separately in game settings.
