Artillery lovers have long understood that Battle Assistant is best mod for ART-ACS, its usefulness can hardly be overestimated, because it adds to the game completely new regime firing, made in isometric style.

Review of Battle Assistant or ACS of a healthy person

Initially, when Battle Assistant first appeared, everyone was perplexed - how did you manage to add a new aiming mode to the game? But the fact remains that the author of the mod made life easier for artisans and changed the standard aiming from above to isometric mode. Thanks to this, several advantages appear at once:

  • if the enemy has disappeared from the light, the aiming point does not jump in jerks;
  • it is much better visible along which trajectory the projectile will fly;
  • you can target the desired point in the booking;
  • it is more convenient to play on city maps.

Also, the mod has built-in functionality of a fire spotter. When the enemy, which is against the background of the sky, leaves the light, the sight is oriented to the next point (skybox) and because of this, the projectile flies in the wrong place. The spotter fixes this.

The only negative point related to Battle Assistant is conflicts with mods showing the Horizontal Aim Angles near the sight. But these are already details.

Now let's move on to the demo. The screenshot below shows how aiming occurs without the Battle Assistant. Aiming is done from above, nothing unusual:

Now we press the magic key J and the sight takes on a completely new shape, and the trajectory of the projectile's flight becomes clearer. As you can see, I can aim at any point in the enemy's armor at all, as long as it is visible. Of course, the projectile is unlikely to fly there (the spread is all the same), but it still becomes much more convenient to play.

I would like to recommend another mod from the category of prohibited, created specifically for artillery. He adds a red one to World of Tanks, so you can see where you need to shoot in order for the projectile to hit the enemy who is in motion.

Installing Battle Assistant for 1.5.1.1

  • Extract the folder from the archive at World_of_Tanks / mods / [client version].
  • The new mode is called with the G key, remember, to enable you need to be in artillery aiming mode.

Battle Assistant will add a completely new aiming mode for art and a few other features to the game.

Why is the modification useful?

it alternative sight for artillery, the peculiarity of which is that the view completely changes during the art mode, that is, the standard top view is replaced with an adapted isometry and thus it is much more comfortable to fire at enemies. You can literally trace the trajectory of the projectile.

This is especially noticeable when shooting at the city, as you can see whether a projectile will fly through houses or not, in contrast to standard mode, where you have to navigate only on the changing color of the strip.

The mod works only for self-propelled guns, work in sniper mode for other types of equipment is not provided.

It was this mod that won (Wargaming Developers Contest - a developer competition from Wargaming). therefore the mod is not prohibited, and moreover, it is approved by the developers.

The main features and benefits of this version:

  • switching aiming mode ( default key G) - standard and " ACS of a healthy person";
  • zoom for art - aka zoom mod, that is, you can move the camera as far as possible from your tank and see almost the entire battlefield;
  • ignoring obstacles - the camera will not jump over obstacles in the path of the projectile (enabled by default);
  • fire spotter - have you noticed that when an enemy is hiding on a hill, the projectile flies much higher? This is due to the fact that if there is no target, the aiming point is shifted far behind the tank; in such cases, the spotter forces the projectiles to fly along a lower trajectory;
  • expert mode - now the skill is triggered a few seconds after the damage inflicted on the enemy, also the perk is now activated after the command "support with fire".

How do I install Battle Assistant?

  1. Download the file.
  2. Run, unpack the insides.
  3. Everything inside must be copied to the folder: World_of_Tanks / mods / 1.4.0.0 /

How to use the crosshair in the game?

It doesn't take much cleverness to figure out how to enable Battle Assistant in battle. There are two modes of operation:

  1. standard,
  2. improved (mod).

You can switch between them using the key G.

How to customize the mod?

In the folder World_of_Tanks \\ res_mods \\ 1.4.0.0 \\ scripts \\ client \\ gui \\ mods file lies mod_battle_assistant.txt... We need it, we open it with a regular notepad. Below is a list of parameters:

  • enabled: true / false - on, off the mod;
  • keys: "" # list of used keys, do not remove quotes! KEY_J - change to a button convenient for you if you want. For G, for example, this would be KEY_G.
  • zoomSpeed: 3.0 - zoom speed;
  • ignoreObstacles: true / false - ignore obstacles
  • expert:
    • enabled: true
  • gunner:
    • enabled: true

What to do if Battle Assistant doesn't work?

  1. Check if the installation is correct, namely:
    1. the folder where you placed the files;
    2. the version number of the folder inside res_mods, should be 1.4.0.0;
    3. the folder in which the game is located must be written in English.
  2. If you changed the settings of the mod, possibly screwed up somewhere, restore the original version.
  3. The mod is guaranteed to work on a clean client, if you collect your own mods, perhaps it conflicts with other add-ons.

For comparison, let's look at the before and after screenshots.

The Battle Assistant mod for World of Tanks 1.1.0 was originally developed to participate in the competition for the best modifications for the game. As a result, Battle Assistant won this competition, and the players received very useful mod, which gives a lot of different additions and innovations to the game.

Battle Assistant is divided into three parts for each variant of the vehicle, the most widely used and very useful addition for those players who prefer to play arte - this is a healthy person's SPG Mod or an improved sight for artillery.

ACS mod of a healthy person

The view of aiming the sight on the SPG will completely change, now the sight will be clearer and more similar to sniper scope on other equipment options. With this sight, it will now be possible to very accurately target an enemy tank or a specific place on the tank. To enable the new sight mode, press the "G" key.

In the sight settings, you can set any key that will be convenient for you to turn on the sight.
Benefits of ACS for a healthy person

Very clear trajectory of the projectile
Convenient on city maps, where you will clearly see the range of the selected target
Can target any point on the tank
In case of getting out of the enemy's light, the aiming point will remain in the same place and you can close down and shoot

Helpful expert

The useless Expert perk will slightly improve.

Now the Expert turns on after a few seconds for the enemy to whom you have inflicted damage, or who have marked with the command "Support with fire".

The Expert perk must be learned from the commander, and the enemy tank must be within the radius of your detection.
The mod only works with the expert perk enabled.
Spotting fire

If the enemy disappears from the light, on a hill against the background of the sky, a shot at the aiming point will fly much higher than the possible location of the enemy. This happens because the aiming marker is displaced from the initial point by about half a centimeter upwards, and the sight has to be lowered from memory. Accurately aiming in this case is still quite difficult and requires certain skills and experience.
With the Spotter of fire installed, the mod will automatically adjust the sight in sniper mode against the background of the sky, so that in cases of an unexpected exit from the enemy due to light, the shot will go a little lower and then he will reach the target.

The file res_mods \\ 1.1.0 \\ scripts \\ client \\ mods contains the battle_assistant.txt file, you can make various settings or turn off some version of the mod.

The Battle Assistant mod causes apprehension among many players, due to the fact that it gives a great advantage in battle and many think that you can get a ban for using it.

The SAU mod of a healthy person is fully authorized by the developers and you can safely install it.
