The buildup of the camera, in modern WoT, is, of course, a utility close to reality, which can “deliver” to ardent fans, but in fact it really interferes with normal and more efficient gameplay. Need to end this.

Remove camera shake

By removing camera sway in World of Tanks, you can greatly simplify the ability to conduct targeted shooting at your enemies. Sometimes these realistic additions and features make it very difficult to properly shoot and hit your opponents. Previously, when the last patch was "0.8.6.", in the game settings it was possible to disable this type of dynamic camera and aiming, later the item was removed.

Functionality of the mod for disabling camera swing in WoT

The development of the mod turned out to be successful and necessary for a large part of the tank audience. Camera sway and its dynamic component can be "cut down". What will disable the add-on:

Shaking when the scope hits the tank;
- inert ability of the camera;
- recoil during a shot;
- enable horizontal stabilization for improved shooting.

Many effects in the game, implemented by the developers of World of Tanks, add authenticity and make the physics in the game look like the one whose laws apply in the real world. This is very popular with gamers who love game projects with very good and accurate simulation. But those who care little about this aspect may consider that some effects in the game are superfluous or complicate the process very much.

This mod, designed and created specifically for those who prefer to specifically sacrifice authenticity, but at the same time greatly simplify their virtual life in World of Tanks, allows the player to turn off some effects, such as:

• The recoil received when firing a weapon. Turning off this effect allows you to avoid shooting down the sight after each volley fired.
• Shaking effect when an enemy projectile hits your tank. Also does not interfere with aiming while under enemy fire;
• Inertia. Delays are disabled when the camera moves, it instantly listens and reacts to all player movements.

Also, in addition to turning off these effects, the mod activates horizontal stabilization, which prevents the tank from rocking when moving along various uneven terrain of the game map.

INSTALLATION

• Move folder res_mods to the directory with the game, confirming the replacement of files.

SETUP

• You can make mod settings by editing the file WOT\res_mods\configs\BBMods\Auxilium\noEffect.json.

The popularity of World of Tanks, fueled by the release of update 0.8.1 and the Golden Joystick Awards 2012, is constantly growing. More than 2.5 million people play every week, and up to 60,000 new players register per month. Unfortunately, only one third of newcomers, besides firing a cannon at everything that looks like a tank, still looks at the forum in search of useful information.

Firstly, this approach is dictated by the habit of playing with a car, where there are first-aid kits, the ability to save, a pause, several lives and the rules for winning are approximately the same. In World of Tanks, you need to fight in real time, with real people, and a person often acts in an original and unpredictable way.

Second, search necessary knowledge involves reading hundreds of pages of forums and websites, what to do, you don’t always feel like it, when you are more likely to go into battle. We will try to help with this task by collecting basic information in the format of a small article. After spending a little time, you will realize that the outcome of the battle is decided by the correct setting of the program, a shot at a weak spot, the right tactics and well-coordinated actions of the whole team, and not the caliber of the gun or the thickness of the armor.

Program settings

Any online game will not bring pleasure if the picture breaks down and freezes. While the program freezes on the client computer, the game on the server continues, and the immobilized, uncontrollable tank becomes a target. Help to avoid this situation correct settings games accessed from the main Menu.

Bookmark A game need to disable Rocking a tank in sniper mode(enabled by default). The enabled function leads to a slowdown in the aiming of the gun and an underestimated accuracy of the shot, which causes you to lose precious moments when shooting at the enemy. The function is used in the program to create the effect of realism, but it is unlikely that most tankers make it difficult for themselves to play.

And here is the setting Use Server Sight(enabled by default) should be left enabled. The server actually fixes aiming, so it will know exactly where the shot is fired.

Starting with World of Tanks version 0.8.0, the graphics have been significantly updated in the game, which created a lot of problems for owners of low-powered computers. Let's look at the settings on the tab Graphics.

First of all, there is a button here Autodetect, but the settings automatically set by the program are often far from optimal. Why see caterpillar tracks if the picture "slows down", and the control is jerky. With a weak or built-in video card, everything is needed disable unnecessary effects leaving only the most important ones.

So from the level Render distances depends on how far the targets will be visible, and Detailing of objects helps to better view the various elements on the tank hull that you need to shoot at, so only they are installed on maximum.

If these changes are not enough for the normal operation of the program, you can disable triple buffering.

Lower the sound settings and go to the bookmark Control. Here the important setting is Mouse sensitivity. When aiming at a distant target in sniper mode, to get to the weak spot you have to move the mouse quite a bit. Therefore, if underestimate sensitivity, pointing will become much more convenient.

AT Arcade the battle needs a quick reaction of the sight, therefore the sensitivity level is higher. Feel free to experiment with these settings to find the best values ​​for yourself.

Now open bookmark Aim. In addition to the transparency levels of all elements, as in Arcade, as well as in sniper scope needs to be installed Gun marker with armor penetration indicator .

This helps to make effective shots at a distant target and when shooting at higher-level vehicles. A green marker means the possibility of penetration, yellow (orange) - it is doubtful, and with a red icon it is better not to shoot.

Bookmark left Marker. Leave a minimum of information in Ordinary mode, the important values ​​are level and numbers Technique durability. Full information in battle can always be temporarily displayed with the button ALT.

In chapter Destroyed You can turn off all display. There is little useful in zeros scattered across the field, and with a large accumulation of "scrap metal" icons, you can miss the enemy tank, which hid behind the lined ones.

Performance Issues

To evaluate the performance on the left, the values ​​​​are displayed in the upper part of the window. FPS and PING. Numbers fps tell how many frames per second the game is displaying, and the time ping– connection speed with the game server. We need as many personnel as possible, on the contrary, the time should be short. Acceptable values ​​are shown in the picture.

To get good values, you must first of all unload your Internet connection and operating system by closing unused programs, including those minimized to the system tray. The video adapter drivers need to be updated to the latest version and the system should be optimized.

Owners of computers with a multi-core processor may experience performance drop when playing World of Tanks. This is due to the fact that the program uses one core to work, the first one, which is also used by the operating system. Let's look at the resource monitor data during the game.

Graphs show full load of the first core. How to change the load on the processor is described in detail in another article. The main thing is that after setting the correspondence, the processes are distributed more evenly, which is shown in the picture below, and the game stops “slowing down”.

We will continue to reveal the secrets of World of Tanks in the next part.
