I like to clear up a Stereotype & Confusion Of Xvm .I know some thinks it creates Lag, I agree MOST of Xvm’s do. Xvm makes it so easy to do so Because they include Floating files and Bells and Whistle files has no need in the battle, just play pretty’s, all of this will cause lag.
In my Xvm I have all the Bells & Whistle turn off. For over six years I played WOT on a PC that I would only get 10 fps on a good day. So I set out to create mod to increase my FPS , I found In Xvm you can turn off alot of Default WOT settings, So I done tons of research by ,reading and watching videos on how to help lag issues.
After all the research and testing Me and a good friend 150 and input from my clan memebers came up with a Xvm that did so . But 150 Pc was better than mine ,I still was not satisfied, so I even took it pass the limits. That is how <a href="/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&controller=topic&id=1374″ rel=””>Hawg’s Alternative Xvm was made.
Now I was playing with <a href="/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&controller=topic&id=1374″ rel=””>Hawg’s Alternative Xvm 15 fps vs 10 with no mods,That don’t sound like much but that is huge compared to 10 fps.
In <a href="/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&controller=topic&id=1374″ rel=””>Hawg’s Alternative Xvm I made it super easy to Turn On or Off all Xvm & some WOT default function, with a file named HawgPen in my Xvm. Now if you turn on all the Xvm function in my xvm, it will cause lag as any other mods you put in your game. But in the default <a href="/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&controller=topic&id=1374″ rel=””>Hawg’s Alternative Xvm download , it is set to Maximize FPS.
Also Xvm has some function that no other mods can do ,so that’s another reason to use Xvm, the right Xvm….
Also in the last Banned Wave Xvm was brought up as a role in helping catch unfair mods. But as PlazmaKeks points out It’s NOT XVM It is where you get it from. Plazmekeks Explain’s “Snitch” mods . I know for a fact ALL of my mods has NO such files in them. So in warning Watch out where you get your Xvm & other mods from.
So I Hope this will clear up the Stereotype & Confusion Of Xvm

completely true, there is NO lag with hawg XVM configuration.
there is also NO snitch tool in this xvm, i think there is not even a snitch tool in any xvm. (was with latest ban wave the “newest” topic)
there has also been a flood adware mods from modmakers recently (will not call names, we all know who makes them)
i can vouch for hawg, that there is NO lag, NO snitch tool and NO adware is any mods made by HAWG.
that is what i like, what you see is what you get, ALWAYS all the time.
👍👍👍
Lets see how this works. It appears that I was logged into the anonymous browser.
Running vanilla awaiting the download to complete.
I fail to understand what you all chat about when it relates to cheating.
Never have I been banned and hopefully never will I be banned.
Hawg has provided for me a ModPack that I believe that Hawg believes is worthy of special praise and it is.
Why should this pack not receive praise? Well I dont care as it has served me well. If it brings you as much entertainment as it has me then this is the ModPack for vanilla players.
Works fine for me with no issues.
I tried Hawgs pack and it is pretty damn good. I’m amazed at the stuff he picked out that no-one even tried before. Some of them are really “can’t do without”. Kudos.
I wish XVM was not so clunky or I would use Hawgs pack all the time. Damn Korean Random and Yaaaaaaay Hawg.
yeah…stopped using xvm ages ago cos of crap lags from it…
Hawg has super improved their pack.
I was privvy to see and use a change that I asked for. It works marvelously and I use XVM
It appears that it works with or without XVM.
However it matches my needs when playing and that counts massively for me.

It does?
hmm….. since the new havoc engine the FPS issues have all but gone ,you can use a quite heavy xvm build and still pull great fps. I myself have a decent Pc that i built myself and see 170-120 FPS depending on the amount of movement i am seeing on my screen ,before HAVOC i could go down to as little as 30 FPS and that would be time to restart my client.I cant imagine playing on 10-15 fps ?
the question would be how many fps do you pull with vanilla client and how many do you pull with xvm loaded ,no other mods just xvm
I was getting a 10 fps drop just using xvm without lots of scripted mods so I gave up because I was getting “hacky” replays. The return to garage and battle loading were longer too.
It got better with Havoc but I got used to not using XVM. PF battle stats worked better so I stuck with that. I did try Hawgs pack and I liked it but XVM had already pissed me off.
I know CuntyBollox had a nightmare with XVM because he has a slow PC. His battle loading times were about 10 – 20 secs after battle start. Now without XVM and with Havoc he loads at about 10 secs before counter 0. (Yeah, he has a new custom rig on it’s way).
It’s a shame that all the love Hawg puts in the pack is not stand-alone. Maybe Soulza can write a new XVM. 😀
Another thing that would be fun to discuss is the rumours…… (I say rumours because I have not managed to recreate this)……….
It is said that Korean Random collects data on installed mods in your client. (Note…. this is NOT a reference to sniffer mods, that is something else).
Can they? Do they? I have no idea……. but….. it has been said convincingly on other sites. So….. IF they collect data…. What do they need it for?
I’m sure the tin-foil hat brigade would love this but no-one has yet said “Yes they do” or “No they don’t”. They just say “They CAN”. So…. my question is…… what use could that data be to KR? Collection of mod data could not help XVM to work better and it’s not needed for an installer.
Maybe (if they do collect data) it was a good idea for the future when they developed that function, but in that case, why not remove that function because it is not used (and should not be used). Anything in XVM that is not used…….. eats fps. Is the base code so complicated that no-one can optimise it any more?
