Hi there,

i just wanted to share my 6th Sense mod with you. I took the idea from Witblitz, but i wanted more effect on the fire of the eye.
Here is the result:



Ingame Preview:

Download:
sauron8.5+sound.zip


Installation Instructions:
1. Unpack the file
2. Choose if you like version with sound or the version without sound (everything is included in the zip-file):

Option A: You just want the icon and you dont want to install xvm
          3. Copy noXVM-nosound\res_mods from this package into your WoT-directory
          4. Enjoy

Option B: You use XVM and just want the icon
          3. Copy SixthSense.png into WoT-directory\res_mods\icons
          4. Enjoy

Option C: You want the icon and sound *¹
          3. Copy the whole WoT-directory\res\audio into WoT-directory\res_mods\0.8.5\  <<<---- very important!
          4. Copy XVM+sound\res_mods from this package into your WoT-directory
          5. Enjoy

^{1) XVM is required and included}


Update:
2013-04-24 Compatibility to 8.5 and updated XVM to 3.5.0
2013-03-06 Compatibility to 8.4 and updated XVM to 3.4.2
2013-01-16 Compatibility to 8.3 and updated XVM to 3.3.0
2013-01-12 You don't need to choose between the two sounds anymore. Sauron will pick one randomly.
2012-12-18 Nothing, just updated the readme
2012-12-16 Added Sound
2012-12-15 Added compatibility to 8.2


FYI:
Youtube-clips by vasco22!
Take a look on his thread.

Idea by Witblitz!
And his Thread.

Special thanks to the XVM-Team!
They made it possible to add custom sounds with xvm.

Sorry for my bad english. It is not my native language.

it would be very useful to play a sound when 6th sense triggers. but it's not supported by wot and i guess it would be seen as a hack.

i copy your battle.swf in    C:\Games\World_of_Tanks\res_mods\0.8.1\gui\flash
but it doesn't work.
i still see normal light. i am very noob about mods... so what mistake i do?

@WooshTank: do you have the 6th sense perk on your tank commander?

sure!

hm, don't know what's wrong, then. for me it works just fine..

Nice mod. Thanks!

With this "i see you" sound from clip it would be even better. Yeah, i know it's hard to do, but illegal? ...nah.

ty anyway....
maybe i need to install something or change some setting to use mods? i dunno :D

nice one

WooshTank, on 06 November 2012 - 02:22 PM, said:

It should work. You did it right! Please restart the game. And please make sure you start the game from the directory you specified.




Thank you all for your response.

Is it possible to create the 6th sense mod with .gif file? This would be awesome if the sauron eye has the flame effect animation!

thank you, i had problems with wot launcher, now it works!

vasco22, on 06 November 2012 - 08:29 PM, said:

actually it is not simply possible to add an animated gif (or my flash skills are just too bad, cause i'm a bloody beginner). but it is possible to do animated stuff like moving or scaling the image. it could be possible, with some hours of work, to add frame by frame and so on, but i really don't want to maintain that with the upcomming wot-patches.
on the other hand, i don't have an animation of sauron's eye...

sorry for the bad news

edit:
there are more problems with gif's
1. the quality is really bad cause they just have 256 colors
2. its not possible to adjust the strength of the transparency, there are just transparent or not transparent.

Luitzifa, i found an interesting mod on drongolab that can give sound notification on sixth sense.
So i make a sauron sixth sense with sauron's voice using your sauron's sixth sense icon, i hope you're alright if i share it on NA forum.
I mention your thread and your name as its original author of course  

Here is the link.
