Hopefully not for too much longer...

Frankly, it's users not understanding the TC settings that stuff up the game. I mean, to me it's quite obvious that setting "Character animations", "Sound effects" or "Particle rendering" TC events to 1 means that those events WILL CUT OUT AT 1x TC. Even the SH3Cmdr FAQ clearly states the effects of doing this.

Unfortunately I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place here. If I allow the settings to be changed to 1, even with CLEAR warnings (it's in two places btw), players complain. If I change it so as to block changing the settings to 1 altogether, guess what, players will complain ("why can't I change this to 1, what's the point of having it if I can't change it to what I want? I'm confused.").

And there's nothing stopping players from editing the TC settings directly in main.cfg with the same results. They don't even get a warning.

All I can say is, if you don't don't what you are changing, don't change!
