Hello, I posted a thread concerning the window mode and now I have a problem with the game not unpausing. When it loads up it says "Game Paused" and when I press the backspace key, it doesnt become unpaused.
This is a first for me and I havent made any changes to the game.

I play sh3, gwx2.0, and sh3 commander(not 3.0, but the older one)

Have you tried the enter or/and plus key on the numpad?

Ok
Check the Main cfg again
But this time the one in MyDocuments\SH3\data\cfg

Check ALL the lines below present

[TIME COMPRESSION]
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=128
CriticalDamage=1
CrewEfficiency=1
AirEnemyDetected=1
SoundEffects=2
CharacterAnim=4
EnemyDetected=8
RadioReport=8
Particles=32
PrayState=8
HunterState=32
3DRender=32
Maximum=4096

IIRC you should have one line maybe 2 missing

Thank you for your help. I tried the + and - keys on the numpad to no avail. My computer has run sh3GWX2.0 and sh3 commander fine until recently, last night.
I'll try the main cfg files tonight and see if I cant nail this down.
Again, many thanks for your help and support.

Sometimes the whole TIME COMPRESSION section is missing or, you might find that RealTime=1 says RealTime=0 instead. If the whole section is missing just copy the one from the game file and paste it in and save. If it is RealTime=0, just change it to RealTime=1 and save.

Thanks to all for the help. For some reason my sh3 did a hiccup and changed some of the values itself, unless I was drinking to much and did something, which is doubtful.
In sh3 commander where you change the values for Time Compression, my values had changed. Weird. But I changed them back to my settings and everything runs fine now. The problem started when the game would load up in windowmode. I fixed that by selecting Full Screen and the german language selection had also changed. It was as if I had deleted My sh3 in my documents. How rude of my computer to pull such a prank!
But anyway, thanks for all the info and help.
Problem fixed!:D
