Compressed textures are one of the most effective methods for improving frame rates when playing on slower PCs.

Why do we need compressed textures for WoT?

Everything is very simple - the textures in the World of Tanks use the resources of the video card, if the amount of textures on the card exceeds the available memory, the game starts to slow down, which greatly affects the effectiveness of battles. But after installing textures compressed to 12%, resources are no longer required, which leads to an increase in FPS in the game.

The main drawback is a significant deterioration of the visual side of the game, the environment and tanks become "soapy", but what can you do for the sake of optimization, right? Let the game look worse, but the winrate will increase, because the brakes, which make aiming very difficult, will disappear.

You can also download special mods that improve the game interface, but made with an eye on optimization - this is.

In addition to compressed textures, you can use other methods of increasing FPS, for example, download, which turns off heavy visual effects like smoke and fire. Together with the textures, this will give a great effect and you can play comfortably even on weak computers. In addition, the WoT settings also allow for greater optimization, pay special attention to the "Resolution of 3D rendering".

Installation

• First go to World_of_Tanks \\ res and make a backup copy of the packages folder so that you can return the old textures if you don't like the new option.
• Download the archive just below and extract its contents to World_of_Tanks \\ res \\ packages.
• Then we run the autoinstall_.bat file, after opening which a window will appear with the process of repacking textures to a new quality. After closing the window, the installer is finished and you can enter the game.

Compressed textures World of Tanks for weak computers 1.0.0.1 is very helpful for players with weak computers. This program compresses textures to 50, 25, 12, 6 percent of the original game client.

The purpose of this mod is to make not just lightweight textures, but so that they are still pleasing to the eye and retain good detail of objects. The textures really turned out to be very good and pleasant to play, despite the fact that they take up only 100 MB.

Compressed textures from folders:

Content - up to 25% various buildings and objects

Vehicles - up to 25% tanks up to 50% tracks

Speedtree - up to 25% all vegetation on maps

Spaces - up to 50% mini card

Mapslandscape - up to 25% surface texture

Guimapsiconsmapscreen - changed the resolution of loading screens

After these actions, the textures take up only 93 MB instead of the required 2.3 GB, and this greatly speeds up the process of entering the battle.

To improve the work of compressed textures, it is highly recommended to use to disable all effects, especially smoke and explosion effects, they are the ones that load the computer a lot.

Setting compressed textures

IMPORTANT!Make sure to back up the folder packagesso that in case of failure you do not have to download the client again! Also, before each update, restore the original packages folder so that the launcher does not force you to re-download the client completely.

1. Copy the entire contents of the archive to the root of your local drive (D: /, C: /, etc.)
2. Select the required texture packs, if you want to install everything, run the file select all textures.cmd, if individually, then just follow the sequence of the packs, skipping the unnecessary ones. (example _02, _04, _05)
3. After the program finishes, the WoT_xx% ... folder will appear in the root of the disk.
4. Copy the contents of this folder to \\ World_of_Tanks \\ res \\ packages and run autoinstall_.bat.

Before after:
Textures from folders were compressed by 50%:
content - buildings and various objects
maps \\ landscape - surface textures
spaces - mini-maps
speedtree - trees and bushes
vehicles - technique and gusli

Before:
After:
On the surface, the compression is hardly noticeable.
Close up on objects, the compression is noticeably stronger.
Objects in the distance look even better when compressed.
Compression is clearly noticeable on a very close technique.
But already at some distance, compressed textures look better.

To add saturation and contrast to textures, I recommend using the FXAA utility, with which you can achieve the same effect as with textures where I changed the color.
Textures take 757 MB instead of ~ 2.3 GB in the original.
Attention: The grass is not pinched, I recommend turning it off.

1.5.0.4
There were no new or redone textures in 1.5.0.4, the developers only removed about 600 textures, probably duplicates and unused ones.
But they did pack the resources into * .pkg archives. Therefore, I have not re-compressed anything new, you can put textures from 1.5.0.4b, but you need to set it cleverly!
Textures cannot be simply put in a new folder for res_mods \\ 1.5.0.4 \\ because the loading time of maps increases, in most cases the FPS decreases and in the case of 25%, unpleasant graininess appears, as if the settings are set to point (bicubic) texture filtering.
It is not known why this happens, but the fact is, so to speak, that something is not working well.
What to do? ... The answer is simple, as before, replace native textures with compressed ones, but they are now packed in * .pkg archives, so as I said, you have to install them tricky.

BEFORE INSTALLING, MUST DO BACKUP GAME ARCHIVES!

Instructions for automatic installation of textures in 1.5.0.4:
I strongly recommend installing on a new-clean client installed from a new distribution kit, otherwise I can’t guarantee performance!
Download the archive with textures, and unpack it into the game client, into the World_of_Tanks \\ res \\ packages \\ folder
Download the magic batch file (the file is attached below), and also unpack it in World_of_Tanks \\ res \\ packages \\
As a result, in your packages folder, in addition to game packs * .pkg, a res folder with the required set of textures should appear,
the file AHuMex_poVitter_autoinstall_1.5.0.4_only.bat and 7za.exe is the file of the archiver.
Check that you have as much free space on your disk as the res folder weighs!
Now we are ready to add textures to game packs, run the bat file.
Batnichek first changes the structures of folders and files in the res folder, preparing them for adding to game packs,
then it puts the prepared textures into * .pkg files, and when it finishes it erases the res folder.
Everything, the textures are installed. Batnichek and 7za.exe can also be erased.
Many thanks to comrade poVitter for the batch file, 99% he wrote.
Thanks also to term_test, desudesudesu, and HOBOE4YDO for the suggested installation methods.
