Question Vmcg

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

Can anyone tell me if crosswind componants and wet runways taken into consideration when calculating Vmcg? Is it a wet and dry figure?

JAR25.149(e) states:
'This is the minimum control speed on the ground and is the CAS, at which, when the critical engine is suddenly made inoperative during the take-off run and with its propeller, if applicable, in the position it automatically takes, it is possible to maintain control with the use of primary aerodynamic controls alone (without the use of nosewheel steering) to enable the take-off to be safely continued using normal piloting skill. The path of the aeroplane from the point of engine failure to the point at which recovery to a direction parallel to the centre line of the runway is attained may not deviate by more than 30ft laterally from the centre line at any point.'

All the other speeds I can cope with!!!!!!
