New Aim Mod (No, realy, this one is new)

[Citronvand]

And a new release of the aim-mod that works on 5.0.1 is already done, sigh. I'm obviously not going to link but I can give a link to WG if it would help. Tell me if that's the case and who I should send it to. I haven't actually verified that it works myself but looking at the comments I don't see any reason to doubt it.

[Tsukotaku]

What Citronvand wrote above is true. I confirm that the mod has already been updated and it's working with 0.5.0.1 build.

Send a ticket to WG and PM the staff

 

[Elgerino]

Outstanding.

[fnord_disc]

Sic transit gloria mundi.

[Admiral_noodle]

WG need to be made aware anyway. This one will also be blocked. Any mod can be blocked, the only question is how many innocent will end up affected

[Sharana]

Yep, tested it and it's working again. I'm really sad - it's working again (not that I had any problems with it, changing speed breaks it) but my favourite are broken because of it...

 

There is only 1 thing I can't understand - why is the author puts so much effort in it. He said himself (this morning) they changed stuff and added randomisation to the ship's coordinates, but later he makes it working anyway while the other mods are still dead. It's clear that it's a smart guy, but I really don't know why is he doing it - satisfaction? The other guys (like the cheatautomation) make it for money and it kinda works both ways because it's not mass spreaded (visible and causing problems) and they earn money. This guys gets nothing while the game suffers...

[realstyla]

who cares about mods.. get real anti-cheat.. to block real cheats..

[G01ngToxicCommand0]

I've found this FAQ from the creator of this mod on this site: http://pkwot.blogspot.dk/2015/09/wows-050-aim-assistant.html

 

[ ".. Will my hit-ratio increase?
It depends how low your hit-ratio is. Don't expect more than 25-30% on BB's and 35-40% on CA's.
Your hit-ratio may even fall down, as now you will feel more comfortable in sniping at maximum distance.
RNG is going to keep you down.
Only your avg damage should get a proper boost."..]

 

What is funny is that the creator admits that RNG is so great a factor on the game that his mod is not going to give you better hit accuracy than the average player that do not use aim assist has which is something I have been saying all along which mean that this thread and all the other doom and gloom threads on aim assist/aim bots  are, as I stated earlier, redundant as the aim assists mod(s)/bot(s) simply don't have any noticeable impact on the game due to the massive influence from RNG.

 

Counting down to the next emotion fueled 'OMG AIM ASSIST IS RUINING TEH GAME!1111!!'

I also dont understand why he make it public, ok he is smart and he cheat the system but why go public if you do it for yourself to be better and it helps you ok, if you even give it to your friend ok - we dont give a f. if 5-10 players go with aim mod BUT if you make it public and than 5000 od 25000 players use it, than we have problem...  I just dont understand he is not selling it its like he just want to f-up WG ??  maybe he want money or ingame prem ships and gold from wg to stop doing it !? 

[Admiral_noodle]

Aim assist will get you that "first salvo" if the target is moving at an unexpected speed. That's all. The only time I'd suspect it is if I was sailing in a straight line at 3/4 speed and got hit at long range. It's still not going to win you games. 

But why would I do that.

 

As for the creator he's an [edited]. He'd be better of privately sending his creation to WG. I would. 

[fnord_disc]

All right. I tried it. Everybody can calm down.

 

Anybody claiming this mod works right now is lying to you. WG broke it for a while longer than 6 hours.

 

The ship's vector is randomized somewhat before it's given to the API. It's not enough to break other mods, but it is enough to break mods for which precision is important. In practice this means that the lead marker jumps around by more than a ship's length, which means nobody will hit anything by relying on the marker. A donkey can hit better than someone who blindly follows the lead indicator.

 

There are several statistical methods to eliminate this inaccuracy, but for the time being it does not work.

[Sharana]

There was no jumping in the training room when I tried it 30 min ago.

No? It works exactly the same as before.

This is what you dont understand,people like him want nothing in return.They just want to satisfy themselves.

 

They do not aim to make money,they do not aim to blackmail anyone....

 

They just want the satisfaction of creating something that causes Gameplay problems into a particular game or even the company behind it.Its more like a self-centered and self-entitlement thing,not money motive like Cheatautomation

 

Having a friend who practiced similar things with a "particular game",its a personal achievement for him,a personal goal that he set and managed to achieve it....

 

This coupled with the satisfaction-self entitlement,can make give a person the boost to continue his job "breaking the code"

It jumps around for me. Yes, training room. Does the displayed speed not change suddenly? I played against a Yamato bot and the speed was jumping from 22kn to 17kn, then to 20kn, all within 2s. The marker also jumped by about a ship's length.

[DesDescartes]

Same video with updated links to the spreadsheet and mod, now working for 0.5.0.1 This new version includes the training room so you can calibrate your ships. Take into account it still have some issues to be solved.

 

 

As allways, visit the WoWs general at 4chan for assistance to set it up.

It was the same for the 0.5.0.0 version and it's not really that much of an issue if you have a bit of photographic memory that can last for 4-5 seconds.

Was it? I didn't try it. But I don't see how this jumping lead marker helps anybody aim. Are people so bad they can't even decide on a rough area where to aim?

[OVanBruce]

Aaaaaand, yeah, less than 24 hours. If the creator of this mod weren't european we wouldn't even had time to enjoy a day without aim mod.

[Elgerino]

You'd have thought that because the moderator commented that it was broken that something more concrete was done. The reality was it was no more a speed bump than any new patch is for any UI mod.

[Tsukotaku]

Like I said it's not really that much of an issue if you have a bit of photographic memory that can last a bit (Don't make me repeat myself), since it always refresh right after at the correct prediction point.

 

Just try to make a new account and play CA or BB from the beginning by only using this mod. Your average damage per battle will result much higher than your "vanilla" performances, even if you're already a good player. Outside that, this mods also totally remove the aiming component from the game, putting somebody skilled and a random newbie guy taking advantage of it on the same level (At least for what concerns artillery).

 

It's totally toxic. Simple as that.

[fnord_disc]

 Like I said it's not really that much of an issue if you have a bit of photographic memory that can last for 4-5 seconds (Don't make me repeat myself), since it always refresh right after at the correct prediction point.

 

I don't think there is a correct prediction point. They statistically cluster around a correct point, so if you are good with estimating density averages (which some people are) then yeah, this is a cool mod.

 

If there were a correct prediction point that it flawlessly shows every second tick, the speed would also return to this tick. But it doesn't. And if you screenshot the different prediction points you can see they're not the same. I don't really see how photographic memory helps you when the point you're remembering is somewhat derpy to begin with.

 

So I return to my original statement, which is: this mod is not particularly powerful.

 

edit:

It should be removed or broken, yes. But I don't think it's very useful in this state.

[Tsukotaku]

But I don't think it's very useful in this state.

 

It is.

 

Only Kongou and New Mexico (For what I've checked) are a bit tricky. Their lines and prediction aim points are not perfectly displayed at the right z-index. Also, this mod tells you where to aim in order to shoot at the middle of the ship. Once you have that information you can brainlessly correct the leading for the citadel, if you know where is located.

 

I don't think there is a correct prediction point. They statistically cluster around a correct point, so if you are good with estimating density averages (which some people are) then yeah, this is a cool mod.

 

Nobody can estimate it at a 100% rate. We are humans, not calculation machines.

 

If there were a correct prediction point that it flawlessly shows every second tick, the speed would also return to this tick. But it doesn't. And if you screenshot the different prediction points you can see they're not the same. I don't really see how photographic memory helps you when the point you're remembering is somewhat derpy to begin with.

 

It refresh at good intervals. Enough to take good shoots on everything. Even if the marker jumps for a second the player can easily recall and apply its prediction from moments prior. That's why I mentioned photographic memory.

Try to install it after the patch today and you will ahve your answer.

Please learn to type and update with correct info...

 

Oh and Mr.elgerino (the shill he is) is on my ignore list..in fact so where you no? You do talk some shite.

 

You think we are stupid really...

 

My point stands there's a cheat and there is [edited]all response.

 

p.s and it does irritate to see blatant employees/fanboys thinking they can pull the wool over peoples eyes. Seriously bugger off! (in the most polite form of British I can do).
