Is there any way to get the game to go to 1x time compression when the last waypoint is reached in a plotted course? Can't find it in SH3cmdr settings or in the game files.

Also on a side note--my crew announcements sometimes don't sound (i.e. "ship spotted" and "last waypoint reached" etc) even when I am at 1x--is there a mod or solution for this? it would be nice to get a shout from my crew if I am not paying attention to the text bar or doing something else..

I am running with 1.4b patch, GW 1.1a with readable compass mod and SH3Cmdr 2.6 and SH3Generator Beta.6 (<---I think). Onboard AC97 audio(asus a8n-e board)...latest drivers installed as far as i know though there are a lot of different providers..nvidia,realtek,asus-- not sure which I installed..I think from asus. All my specs meet recommended otherwise.

Thanks.

Re the missing crew voices, have you read the SH3Cmdr FAQ? There's one FAQ that may be a possible solution for you:

Q: Since using SH3 Commander I can no longer hear speech or most sound effects. What sound files does SH3 Commander overwrite?
A: SH3 Commander does not overwrite any game sound files. This problem will occur if you set the "Character animations", "Sound effects" and/or "Particle rendering" Time Compression events to 1. Reset each event back to the default value and try again (a Rollback is not sufficient to reset these settings). If your problem persists, scrutinise any new mods that you have installed since you last had full sound.

I know you can edit the time compression settings in SHIII which will alter the rate it jumps to when you get close to land or spot a ship or something;

I have changed the max setting from 1024 to 2048.

Also if you're at full compression and you want to get to 1 quickly, you can press the Backspace key (top right next to your = sign) and it'll pause the game, you can then press the + key to get it to real-time.
