For non-EU server player go to UML topic on WG discord(https://discord.com/channels/161053416796323840/1248653660486111303)
A recently introduced CTD fix is unfortunately region-specific. Player from different regional server(EU US ASIA CN Lesta) needs a different version of UML
Core feature of Universal Model Loader is to change only the appearance of the tank that player is currently driving, leaving friendly and enemy tanks untouched. This is intended to address hitbox mismatch issue caused by using remodels significantly different from stock models, which is making it impossible to hit weakspot of type59 if it looks like challenger2.
It has since evolved greatly towards adding new capabilities to WoT remodels, especially animation, funding the basis for more realistic model behaviour.
Detailed description check readme in the release zip.
This list of docs for remodel authors should give you a rough idea of its capability:
instruction_on_triggered_animations
instruction_list_of_keywords_for_fixedEmblem
instruction_on_additional_gunFire_animation
instruction_on_addon_models
instruction_on_burst_firing_effect
instruction_on_dual_barrel_compatible_remodel
instruction_on_glow_shader
instruction_on_hangar_and_seasonal_remodel
instruction_on_new_animationBone
instruction_on_new_sounds
instruction_on_registering_base_colour
instruction_on_sound_mod_support
instruction_on_steering_controller
instruction_on_tacticalNumber_slot
Installation
v1.7 used wotmod format, install path is now mods , not res_mods
Delete earlier version before attempting this one.
you can retain old config by copying res_mods/x.x.x.x/scipts/client/mods/ownModel.xml to mods/configs/UML/
Open zip, extract content of ‘mod for player’ to /mods/%CURRENT_VERSION% , including sub-folder
file structure should resemble this:
mods1.26.0.1UML.wotmod
Launch game. When prompted to restart, click restart
When in hangar, press F5 to verify a brief flash and a new msg in the notification panel
If the flash and msg did not happen, your copy of UML is outdated or is in the wrong folder, or encountered mod conflict.
If you only want to swap into models provided by WoT (3D styles), or only intend to use features other than swapping, then you can stop here.
If you want to swap into downloaded remodels then follow these steps:
Download remodel pack from wgmods.net or other sources.
Install remodel. Place wotmod into /mods/%CURRENT_VERSION%
Start/restart.
