Ahoy...
Just a bit of a... status update.
To date, have taken just the base SH3... & put it on a diet.
Went through & found doc's... that on inspection, were not related to SH3 in playing. (Testbedded it on culling those out & it booted up, just fine.

) which, was good news indeed.
Took it to stage 2... in the sounds dept., culled out en voices... & on culling them... test bed launched it... & as before... booted up... & seemed to do so, a lot faster.
Am now looking to further put it on a diet... with the text confirm messages & such... (for Me, that would translate down to the de or german text files & such in that category...

wanting to keep the en or english side of that part... as I don't read german.

though I do enjoy hearing orders given in it, though.) such as when giving an order of say... speed 1/3 ahead... but, could use a bit of... a spot light on where to look for that, exactly... so, any info on that... thanks.
