No night campaign starts is there a mod please.?

[Aces]

Hi chaps,

Is there either a mod or a tweak that I can do to ensure that campaign missiions always start in the day time?.

I fear that it's a random hard coded thing but if there was a mod or tweak then that would be great. It's very frustrating waiting about half an hour to load a campaign to test something and getting a night start where eveything is "black as your hat". Sometimes I get two or three night starts on the trot before I get a a day start and that wastes hours of my time when testing/tweeking.

Thanks and regards

Bump,

Anyone know if this is possible please.

I'm not sure; maybe by editing the last item in My Documents\SH3\data\cfg\Careers\<Your Name>\Patrols_0.cfg

Something like that:

[PATROL XXX]
PatrolNumber=0
StartYear=1941
StartMonth=1
StartDay=9
StartHour=4
StartMin=3
.....

That is how I do it SquareSteelBar, it works.

Excellent!!, thanks chaps, that'll save me quite a bit of time testing mods that need a campaign. I use MBFL for single mission mod testing and that's great.

Many thanks and kind regards

Glad to be of help in my own small way.

A big help thanks chaps, It's very time-consuming and tedious when testing mods such as the multi-mod compat fix or the Super Pens that require a campaign start to wait all evening for the game to load a day mission only to have to tweek something and start over again. This "little" thing can save me quite literally hours of waiting.

Another possibility was -> TC :03:

Hi mate,

Yes but in the pens it won't TC fast enough (:

The TC limitations can be edited [e.g. for modding purposes] in My Docs\SH3\data\cfg\main.cfg... ;)
