RCP 9.2 will be here soon.
Do not worry, I have not forgotten.
New version of RCP Manager is ready and first compatibility packages (RCV's) for 9.2 will roll out tomorrow. (Without making 9.1-9.2 old ones simply won't work).
For following reasons RCV's will be rolled with delays between them, proceeding from most recent (9.1-9.2) to oldest (7.1-7.2).
- saturating net with seeds/webseeds (RCP will be released via torrent and web hostings).
- testing, there is always some to do.
- patching, it always comes after testing.
- minor updates to Manager.
- my bandwidth.
- my time.

RCP release delayed until 9.2 rolls out.
Tittle pretty much sums it up.
Although I could rush RCP 9.1 before 9.2 release, it have little sense.
Instead I will use this time to polish up new RCP manager and correct some bugs in previous releases. As of now full 8.x chain is complete.
I guess I can share some info on new form of upcoming RCP release:
- same awesome cascade RCC system as before, but tuned up a few notches.
- full 7.x and 8.x support will be released in parts. I pretty much have it ready, but preparing such amount of data for release gonna take a while so I'll just share it in parts.
- third generation RCPmanager utility (with drag&drop).
- no more RCPdownloader, instead RCP will be released via torrent boosted by webseed (direct download). At some point I will add update notifier to RCPm utility.
- increasing size - RCP system uses files from original game, which means it gets fatter together with WoT (recently mostly due to graphic changes). However average amount of data RCP requires per versions is still around 1GB.
- RCP manager will not provide support for Windows XP anymore. As of now minimal requirements are same as those of .NET 4.5. If you are still fanatically worshiping obsolete technology you may attempt to use Mono, however have in mind that I will provide no support at all for issues with it.

RCPm Package manager
RCPm Package manager
Why it exists?
It is part of new project: "RCP Tools", which will replace RCP Manager, which was just an experiment. One of parts of RCP Tools will be RCPm v2.0, which will be just combination of all tools.
That way whole project became easier to manage and much more pleasant to create.
What it does?
As name implies, it manages packages, user have direct control only over RCC packages, RCV handling is automated.
Is it complicated?
Nope. It is as simple as I could make it without limiting its capabilities.
Is it dangerous?
Not any more than RCP itself.

What it does?
It (re)creates Paths.xml and launcher .bat files and stores selected paths (in Registry) for next use.
Is it complicated?
Nope. Two text fields provided with default values you do not have to touch and three buttons with two of them necessary only if you installed game and/or RCP in non-default directory.
Is is dangerous?
Not any more than RCP itself.

RCP download links
New version of Manager will be released "soon", it will use same files as posted here.
RCC packages are usable in current (ugly and bugged) release of Manager. (paste it manually and use Manager to re-generate paths.xml.
You may notice that host for files was changed to Ubuntu One. Reasons are as following:
Of course there are some issues:
RCV Tools
RCV core packages
RCC 0.8.8 packages
RCC 0.8.7 packages
RCC 0.8.6 packages
RCC 0.8.5 packages
RCC packages are usable in current (ugly and bugged) release of Manager. (paste it manually and use Manager to re-generate paths.xml.
You may notice that host for files was changed to Ubuntu One. Reasons are as following:
- Direct download without any issues. Google Drive sucks at it.
- Implicit allowance for use as host for installation software. Google Drive was rather against that.
- Good download speed, not as good as Google Drive, but still "civilized".
- "Hi-tech" GUI. I like it.
Of course there are some issues:
- No one-click list of direct download links. So I made my own.
- Limited space (5GB? I am not sure), so yeah. Boost RCP account on Ubuntu One by registering via this link, one referee will add enough space for ~half of RCS of one version.
RCV Tools
RCV core packages
RCC 0.8.8 packages
RCC 0.8.7 packages

I am still alive.
Due to reasons you have no reason to know I was away from RCP project for some time.

Update for sake of updating. Yes. I am still alive.
It appears that few fellow tankers started to doubt in me. But I am still alive and RCP 8.8 project is active.
However, RCP 8.8 is temporary suspended in favor of another little project. That project is also RCP related.
Yup. That's RCP manager. As you can see, screenshot was made just when I was testing download RCV 8.7 with it.

RCP 8.8
Replay Compatibility Pack
For WoT 8.8
Remember that requirements are in cascade.
For example, for RCS 8.5 you need RCS 8.6, which means you also need RCS 8.7.
So download (and install) from top to bottom until you reach desired version
Downloads:
RCS 8.7@8.8 ~220MB.
Requirements: as clean as possible World Of Tanks 8.8 (res_mods can be trashed as much as you want)
Note: it is quick and rather dirty release. Better solution will follow up soon.
.
Rest will come later.

Separating WoT mods for ease of management.
As with every update, some mods stopped working properly.
But how to tell which mod is causing game to not load?
And even if you find out, how will you distinguish its files from parts of other mods?
Even then, what about mods that overwrite each other files?
Its hell.
So here is simple solution I just implemented in my copy of 8.8:

Idea and purpose of Comment Section on RCP blog.
If you followed my RCP threads on craptastic NA forum, I often attempted to turn them into knowledge base, fully answering to all properly asked RCP related questions even if it meant repeating myself (which I do not like to do).
After migrating to Blog I limited my RCP related activity on official forum to bare minimum because moderators gone crazy.
You can find me on WotLabs forum and communicate with me in corresponding RCP thread, but mind that moderation on that forum is very good and not forgiving. Idiots tend to disappear very quickly.
