Ackdavis, I've tried hacking the .cfg files also with no joy. Soon as I load the save game, the .cfg is reset to what I started my patrol with. I figure there is another file somewhere with the "patrol settings" and it automatically overwrites the main.cfg when you load the saved game. |
Are you using the main.cfg found in the My Documents/SH4 folder? The one in the install directory is only read once and does not control your settings. I've made other changes in the .cfg and had them take effect. Just the event camera variable doesn't seem to work. I suspect the sim doesn't actually read the event camera setting from the main.cfg, but from another file.
For mid-patrol, you might try changing it in one of the various gameplaysettings.cfg files in My Documents/SH4. One of those should be for you current campaign.
