Reposting for new thread: Here's a link to my modpack for 9.5! Here are the fonts it uses. It contains: - XVM with my own brand of lines on the minimap - White = Maximum spotting/draw distance and traverse indicators - Red = Artillery and low tier autoloader range - Green = View range and camera direction - 2 seconds protection from shooting at corpses - J1mb0's crosshair mod - Server-side crosshair - 500m zoom out, 16x zoom in - Meltymap's damage and armour thickness indicator - Scope shadow removed - Locastan's damage panel and session stats - 2 row tank carousel - My Metal Gear Solid sixth sense mod - HP bars and Team HP - Battle assistant It probably also has some other stuff I've forgotten about, but nothing that can get you banned. Let me know if there are any issues.

Atomizer posted:Yeah, I'm grinding to both of those simultaneously. The Grant & Val are aggressively mediocre even though I'm experienced enough to make use of whatever high points they have (gun, armor.) Calling the Valentine mediocre is an insult to mediocrity. It is BY FAR the worst tank in the game.

Atomizer posted:Stock ARL V39. Checkmate. Yeah, but the Valentine is that bad upgraded. A fully upgraded tier 4 tank with less DPM than the majority of tier 2 tanks is just shameful.

If you're Canadian you should be drinking this: Jim Murray, the writer of the Whisky Bible, names it one of the top 6 whiskys in the world and says: "When I tell people that you can buy one of the best whiskys in the world in a plastic bottle in a liquor store for the kind of change that you don't even realize is in your back pocket they don't believe me." In BC it's under $25 for a 2-6. If that's not enough endorsement for you it is also Jim Lahey's brand of choice in Trailer Park Boys.

JuffoWup posted:Yeah, I used free experience. Thing is, I have enough premium vehicles that it freely generates that much in a few weeks if I bang on them for cash. And I mean freely as in, I don't use gold to convert to that. I am currently sitting on nearly 400k free exp. I got a bunch from when they hosed around with the Russian T-28 line and it kinda just snowballed from there. I'm probably going to use it to get the FV4202 before it becomes a premium.

MoraleHazard posted:McGavin, I've downloaded your mod pack and fonts and everything looks great except the minimap has black blobs instead of icons the player names and mini tank silhouettes don't show up. The icons at the top are just white versus red and green and there's no icon above any tank that spotted in the game. I've just dropped your modpack into the 9.5 mod_res folder in WOT. Any hints on how to fix? That's weird. I just tried reinstalling it and it's working fine for me. You should be just dropping it in the C:\Games\World_of_Tanks folder and then merging the res and res_mods folders. You also have to install the fonts (open the file then click the install button or drop them in your Fonts folder in control panel). Make sure you clean out the contents of your res_mods folder before reinstalling.

Atomizer posted:Reading XVM is quite simple with a little practice. In this case, that screenshot tells me that literally everyone on your team needs to uninstall, kill their families to protect the rest of our population's gene pool, and then kill themselves. Sorry to break it to you that way. They're all newbies. They're allowed to be trash. The guy with 7k games is pushing it a little though.

coyo7e posted:So I have been playing this on the Xbox 360 console and I know it's nerfed to poo poo and retarded but I was trying to talk a new roommate into installing this on his monster water-cooled box, and was wondering if there's a post or anything I should point him to with a list of mods etc he should get set up ahead of time, while he watches me play the lovely version on my poorbox. Check my post on the first page of this thread. In other news I have no idea how to get Ace Tanker in the Pz. II G. 180 damage every 15 seconds is way less than I'm comfortable with. Anyone with any tips other than "shoot all the mans"?

LostCosmonaut posted:Play it like an autoloader. Dump clip, gtfo (you're fairly mobile). Also, the bloom on shooting is terrible, so if you're engaging any farther than about 30 meters away you won't want to dump the clip at once. Fire, let reticle settle a bit, fire again. Hellsau posted:Killshots are the way to go for low tier aces. You can't put out enough damage due to the HP pool to match the 50-100 xp or whatever per kill. Spotting damage can come close though. I got it. All it took was doing more damage than everyone else on my team in a tier 4 game. At 180 damage every 15 seconds and 32 penetrations in 68 shots.

I'm almost convinced that when a tank takes damage that should kill it completely it gets a saving roll that gives it a 5% chance of leaving it alive with one HP instead. How much more often do you see tanks with 1 HP compared to tanks with 2 HP?
