The eXtended Visualisation Mod or "XVM"

XVM is a special Mod that exists in a class of its own. The XVM Mod allows the user to customize the WoT battle interface to a great extent. It is also a popular "Base Mod", upon which other Mods are built, meaning many other Mods depend upon XVM being installed also in order for the special Mod to function properly. XVM is free and uses open source code under the GNU GPL v3 license. It is updated and improved frequently by its developers, usually simultaneously with every new WoT Patch. The latest version compatible with the current patch of WoT should always be used. The XVM Mod is described in more detail at: XVM Mod Home Page. Make sure you download the latest version compatible with your patch of WoT from: XVM Mod Download. Instructions for the installation and settings are here: XVM Installation. The XVM Mod consists of several separate components, the most important three of which are:

Vehicle Markers, a.k.a "Over Target Markers" or OTM

May be customized in almost any style or configuration with a wide range of icons and information; and if the separate XVM Statistics Module is also installed, all of the statistical information available therefrom may also be displayed.

Damage Dealt/Received Hit Log

Is a list of individual hits placed on a named enemy target with the amount of hit point damage caused with a running accumulated total of hits and damage caused and/or a list of individual hits received by the players vehicle with the amount of hit point damage recieved with a running accumulated total of hits and damage received. The Hit Log can be configured to show a wide selection of information.

Minimap XVM Mod

Permits extensive customization of the content, presentation, and characteristics of the in-battle MiniMap. Custom icons can be selected and each annotated with vehicle name or player name. View range circles, hull direction pointer line, gun muzzle pointer line, and gun constraints lines can be included on the MiniMap and their color and line type changed to suit. A last known position feature can be enabled that shows where no longer visible enemies were last seen.

The XVM Mod also provides functionality to customize base capture indicators, in battle player panels, battle loading player panels, sixth sense icons, and the ability to utilize Clan Logos and other icons and images in the Vehicle Markers and Player Panels. XVM Clan Icon sets are updated periodically and are available on a per server basis, for download at Clan Icons.

Supporting documentation is included in the XVM Mod download describing how to customize and change the configuration of your XVM Mod to suit your personal preferences.

There is wide use of XVM by players, however there are a number who feel its use is unfair. The information it provides can be used to assist with tactical decisions within the game. It is information that is not provided by the basic client and it is not available to all players unless they use XVM. Only those players who download and use XVM have access to this extended information. Players may use XVM at their own risk, but it may restrict their development as players if they become over reliant on XVM.

Mod Pack Compilations or Configurations

Mod Packs are compilations of compatible Mods or XVM Mod configuration which were compiled and custom configured to work together by a compiler person and are often good choices for those who do not wish to take the time to customize their own. Mod Packs are useful for newcomers wanting a quick step into battle with the latest Mods. Mod Packs themselves can be further customized and personalized if required.

Choosing and adding mods

The current version of the WoT client is v0.9.19.1, the release date is not sure because the version is still in Common Test. Version 0.9.11 was skipped out of sensitivity to the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.

The client file structure requires that all mods be re-installed after every number release, e.g. when 0.9.12 replaced 0.9.10 .

Some of the mods don't require coding update for new client versions, others do.

The WoT forum has a lively section dedicated to mods, with new posts as mods and modpacks are updated to each new version.

World of Tanks Mods & Addons

A list of modpacks and individual mods which were reported to work in 0.9.9 is at

WoTHelp World of Tanks 9.9 Mods.

This has not been re-created for 0.9.12, but in many cases following the link to the mod's download page you will find that the link on the page has been updated to the current usable version.

Guides

Backing up your (skin) files (outdated)

Once you replace a file, there is no way to get it back unless you have a backup or reinstall the client from scratch, so make backups first, always.

Here is the file location for all the tank skins, they are then broken down into parent directories that house each nations tank skins and models.

Now locate the tank that you will be adding a custom skin to. In this guide we will be adding a custom skin to our T2 Light tank, which is called A19_T2_lt by the game directory. 1st select the main folder for that tank. Click on the folder, then drag the folder up between any two folders until you see a long black line appear, this means you are placing the folder between these two entries. Press and hold the "Ctrl" key, a message should come up that says "Copy to (nationality)". While holding "Ctrl" release the mouse button. This will create a duplicate copy of your tanks info.

If done correctly, you should have a folder with two A19_T2_lt folders, but one should now have "Copy" at the end of the folder name.

Downloading and Installing (outdated)

1: Now click on the link for file you want to download.

2: Click the download button.

3: Click Save

4: Select where you want the file to be downloaded, generally I pick the desktop since it is easy to locate and easier to transfer files out of.

5: A file like this should appear on your desktop. Generally they are either .zip or .rar, the process will be the same for either file type. Right click and select, "Extract to [file name]" This will extract the files into a folder that you can browse through.

6: Click on the new folder that was created on your desktop. It should contain some files; tank_name.dds, tank_name_crash.dds, some images. It may contain alot of files, or it may contain just one.

7: Select the files from this folder and move them into the World of Tanks folder. For me it was both T2_lt.dds and T2_lt_crash.dds into A19_T2_lt.

8: A dialog box should appear. Check the box that says "Do this for the next # conflicts" and then press "Move and Replace"

Make sure that you are copying to the right folder and not into your backup folder.

If copied correctly, then you should see the new skin reflected on your tank in game.*Once game is restarted, or tank is switched, then switched back*

'FAQ's

Q: Can everyone see my new cool skin?
A: No, the files are held on your computer and only rendered by your computer, thus only you can see them.

Q: Is this skin only for the tank I am driving?
A: Again, skins are held on your computer and are applied to all the tanks it pertains to and rendered just on your computer, so all tanks will look like yours.

Q: Can I make my tank harder to spot with new skins?
A: No, skins are just aesthetic, while spotting is just an algorithm.

Q: Can I put offensive things on my tank?
A: Yes, but you can't post images of your tank or skin on WoT forums.

Thanks to Locopyro for the tutorial

Making your own custom skin

Just a Very basic camo method I(Conkker) use. If you're familiar with Photoshop you should be able to edit and change it from here. Using [These] can help make the skin look more authentic.

Warning, Massive Image. Make sure to make a backup copy of all the .dds files before editing.
