I have found this entry in the main.cfg file placed in

data\Cfg:

(...)

[TIME COMPRESSION]
; The first value is the default one, the second value is used when 'travel mode' is activated.
; The two values should be separated by a comma.
; If only one value is specified, that value is used for both default and travel mode.
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=8,8192
CriticalDamage=1,1024
CrewEfficiency=128
AirEnemyDetected=1,8
SoundEffects=2
CharacterAnim=32
FriendDetected=32,8192
EnemyDetected=8,64
RadioReport=32,8192
Particles=32
PrayState=8,32
HunterState=8,32
3DRender=32
Maximum=8192
---------------------------


This setting seems to be ok, but it doesn't work in my game. Any idea why, and is this related at all?


I'm using TDW NewUIs 7_5_0, OHII v.2.5 in my modlist.



Thanks,
Hi XenonSurf!
The .cfg file you need to modify to have TC=1 is not in: Silent Hunter 5\data\CFG\main.cfg, ie in the installation folder, but in this path:

C:\Users\MyName\Documents\SH5\data\cfg\main.cfg

and in my opinion you can change the TC in this way:

[TIME COMPRESSION]
; The first value is the default one, the second value is used when 'travel mode' is activated.
; The two values should be separated by a comma.
; If only one value is specified, that value is used for both default and travel mode.
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=1.64
CriticalDamage=1
CrewEfficiency=1024
AirEnemyDetected=1
Soundeffects=2
CharacterAnim=64
FriendDetected=8
EnemyDetected=1
RadioReport=1
Particles=32
PrayState=1
HunterState=1
3Drender=1024
Maximum=1024

the values in AirEnemyDetected and in EnemyDetected are =1 to have time to take the necessary countermeasures, as was the case in reality where the TC does not exist!
Remember to make a backup of main.cfg that you modified, because TWoS, if you use this supermod, change each time the existing main.cfg file with its main.cfg which has a completely different TC.
Sorry for my bad English!
