Someone mentioned you can change the distance to land that tiem acceleration is adjusted. What file is this in?

Actually I want to do time compression when enemies are sitting on me. Any way I can get it up from 1?

Easily. Go to "My Documents/SH3/data/cfg" and edit main.cfg's max TC settings. Make sure they're in powers of 2 though, just to avoid problems.

Which one do I edit so I can increase time compression when an enemy is sitting on top of me?

PrayState.

HunterState is for when you've sighted an enemy, but they haven't seen you yet.

Ok this is strange. My praystate=8 but I cannot accelerate time at all when the enemy is above me.

Hmm? Not even to 8?

That's strange. The only time I've seen this is when I had LandProximity set to 1, and I was near the bottom while the enemy was above.

Maybe it's the critical damage TC kicking in?

This is how mine looks right now (what do you suggest I change)?

[TIME COMPRESSION]
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=4
CriticalDamage=1
CrewEfficiency=1
AirEnemyDetected=1
SoundEffects=2
CharacterAnim=4
EnemyDetected=8
RadioReport=8
Particles=8
PrayState=8
HunterState=32
3DRender=32
Maximum=1024

There's an easier way: use Wolfie's tweak pack and change "land proximity" to 64, for example

Just by curiosity, how close to the bottom are you ?

Seems there is something else than the preystate involved.

The most obvious seems to be the land proximity,
but also could be your crew efficiency ?


And for the suggestion

* i've tried over it but got my sub badly damaged, and even stranded" (if it's the right word to say i got it on the beach ;))
** tried higher value but not worth the risk when the Airplane start to be realy dangerous. You must have the time to react.

***64 or 128 are nice values if your computer can manage it

**** 1024, 2048 or 4096 same as before, depend if your computer can manage it. 4096 seems to be the maximum value, don't get over it.

Those are my value , but they are also adapted to the way i play.
