Extended Visualization Mod on patch 8.8

Hey guys
I have another question. How can I get my xvm back on patch 8.8?
I really took advantage of it on the old patches and I especially need the map mode. Please help me.
Greetings

Hi!

I did a clean install of my WoT client and then installed the XVM 5.0 Version it is a test version so there might be problems did not find any so far.
Where to find:
https://code.google.com/p/wot-xvm/downloads/detail?name=xvm-5.0.0-test1.zip

IMPORTANT: Even if you do not make a clean install it is necessary to start WoT NOT with the wot-stat link added by former XVM versions. Best would be to totally remove the old xmv version as far as I have read thru forums so far.

Just as a tip use a forum section in which your question fits. Would help also others because nobody was expecting this topic in the application section so others with this problem might get help thru this or somebody who wants to answer you question does find it easier  

@AnyForumMod: please move this topic to general discussion or a matching section of the forum

I can highly recommend this mod pack as it's so easy to set up and it has a working version of XVM for 8.8

http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/219978-088-chr1schi%C2%B4s-modpackage-releaseday-version/#top

Installation:

Just delete any existing XVM files from your WoT folder (including xvm-stats.exe) and also delete the 0.8.8 Res_Mods folder entirely. It's important that there are no residual XVM files left so it's best to ensure you delete all XVM related stuff by searching for XVM in your WoT folder and then deleting everything you find.

Download the file from the link above and then drop the extracted 0.8.0 Res-Mods folder into your WoT folder.

That's all you have to do - XVM and all the mods launch automatically when you launch WoT directly from the launcher (you no longer need to launch from xvm-stat.exe which you should have removed anyway!)

The pack includes:


- xvm full 5.0.0 Test1
- damage panel with fire sound and a reversed damage log
- advanced xvm damage counter
- Enemy hitpoints left on Alt
- sixth sense sound
- crew loader
- j1mb0s coloured icon mod
- Jimbos crosshairs incl. shell travel time and swivel range indicator
- accurate damage indicator
- max zoom out camera mod for a better cam view distance
- max farplane
- death animation tank angels
- HD xvm minimap mods
- no shadow in zoom
- visible railcarts mod

You can modify the xvm config using XVM editor for any individual preference choices. For example, win chance is off by default.

I tried to download this thing but it would not run. I also hate all the bits and pieces you are forced to download just to get it, like "iLivid" and various toolbars and stuff so I got a version elsewhere . I will find out later if it works or not. I missed my crosshairs today.

I didn't get any spurious crap when I downloaded it yesterday- running Firefox and AdBlock Plus.  The link took me straight to the down load page. It looks like he has since changed his file host which is a shame. Sorry about that.

Nice find, thanks for sharing the link Lemmingtrain.

I got the pack by Chr1s and the mod by Locastan that totals up your session performance in the system message box...all working fine.

So all I have to do is to download the file (it wasnt a zip file when I downloaded it) and put it in the wot resmods folder?

What is the file called? Because I think the download should be in some packed (zip, rar, something like it) format.

The file is called:  chr1schi´s.modpackage.8.8.Beta.2.rar (23.0 MB)

Try this link to download:  https://mega.co.nz/#!WRcHUQRC!TzwiPkSltA9GfLRDZ9yoAwSTP0QzEbG5KgL5-EAGJl0

Make sure you follow the instructions outlined in my post above carefully or it will not work!

Locastan's colour messages and session statistics pack can be downloaded from here: http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/177899-color-messages-and-session-stats-088/

Hi Lemmingtrain. My problem is, that I cant extract the chrischis modpack file I can only opne it. Please help!

I think IronClaw has the same problem as I do beeing, that it is not a zip file and so I cannot extract it. I think thats why it doesnt work. Furthermore I have Windows 8. Probably that is a problem as well

Sorry have to be quick as going out shooting for the day.

There are plenty of free RAR extractors on the net - it shouldn't be a problem finding one. I use WinRar which is good: http://download.cnet.com/WinRAR-32-bit/3000-2250_4-10007677.html

PM me later tonight if you are still stuck.

Hi again. I have now found a mod package that works on my computer and I can highly recommend you to try it out because its great and support the guys who did a lost work for it. Here is the link http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/237916-088-oldskools-promod-deen/page__pid__5912285__st__2320#entry5912285

Sorry thats the right link, but it its in german. If someone doesnt understand it, just ask me or go to google translator Greetings Preunife42 http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/276022-088-oldskools-promod-ende/page__fromsearch__1

I copied what I needed from http://www.curse.com/wot-mods/worldoftanks/j1mb0s-reticles#t1:other-downloads
I used the J1mB0’s Crosshair Mod v1.32 (this is a zipped version), unless you use Curse be sure to download the version that does not have Curse Mod appended. I mainly use the crosshair and try not to take too much notice of the player stats unless there is a huge disparity between teams. Just copy the unzipped xvm into res_mods and the all the files in Jimbo\res_mods\0.8.8\gui\scaleform into World_of_Tanks\res_mods\0.8.8\gui\scaleform

@preuinfe42: I think you mean the V-Day Garage in your post in oldskools thread @ WoT Forum (as far as i remember QB's video about his mods)
You can find that plus how to install here: http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/245125-088-berlin-victory-day-garage/
