[0.8.5] Aslain's XVM Mod v2.7.2 <u...

Aslain's Photo Aslain 27 Apr 2011

Are you tired of default tank contours, that tells you basicaly nothing about it, except for the tank contour itself? Try my custom contour icons, with them you'll not only have a brand new colored and tiered vehicle names, but also XVM - which means nice floating dmg numbers, custom health bars and more....The mod is in developement since WoT's closed beta back in 2010, and is one of the first icon mods ever created. The purpose of it was to replace ugly, and useless contour icons in favor of colored vehicle names. With my icons you can have much better battle awareness, than the others players who uses default set. You can identify enemy vehicle class with a blink of an eye, you will never be supriced like you can be with built-in icons.

How to install:

FAQ:
Q1: What are those red and green square markers at the health bar?
A1: These are stock turret indicators. Green marker means stock turret with top gun possible to mount, red marker means stock turret, top gun is impossible to mount.

Q2: I see many numbers and stats on TAB and durring battle loading screen, please explain them.
A2: Example of "1h 44%  10k 700 50%". The player has played at least 100 battles (1h = 100) on current vehicle, 44% vehicle win ratio, played 10k battles totaly, has 700 WN6 rating and 50% global win ratio. The numbers are colored dynamicaly, starting from red as worst stat, thru green, and ending on purple as very high stat. Missing stat means either the stat server hasnt processed the player yet, or is overloaded.

Q3: What means those stats with ALT key pressed?
A3: Over a health bar you have a total battles count, player efficiency and global win ratio, to the left of hp bar is vehicle tier number, to the right of hp bar is vehicle win ratio, and under a hp bar is that particular player'svehicle average damage.

Credits goes to:

Noticed that, it's RKazza's bug, will be fixed in next release.

Speaking of version C, might consider it.

Really nice Mod...
I think its the best Icon Mod.

Just one thing:
You used shorted names for some tanks, but the "M4 Sherman" is still too long...

Icons updated, please report which icons are overlapping, so I will fix them too.

Updated to v.0.4, some fixes applied to icons, mostly shorthened names on some tanks I discovered recently.

I know I am updating like a lot, but it's for now, there will be less releases once all the names are fine.
