Time Compression

DareDevil · 11-24-11, 12:45 PM

Hi Uboat Sailors

Yesterday i started a new campaign and since i have this pc i cant increase TC when close to shallow water. I know ive made it possible in the past but i dont remember which mod i used for that.

I have SH3 with GWX 3.0 installed atm.

Hopefully someone can give me a hint

Settings can be made in SH3 Commander for TC,and welcome to SubSim,

You can also edit main.cfg or basic.cfg in the installation folders if you don't want to use SH3 Commander but I definitely recommend SH3 Commander it's excellent.

Something else that you may like which I'm just looking into now is hot-keying certain time compressions to keys.
This would save you repeatably hitting increase all the time when say a message resets it to 1x.

Good idea. I did this a while ago, (setting up a single key to move to max TC in one stroke). It certainly saves a lot of repetition, and for me at least, I find it very handy.

Could you tell me how to set the hot key for max time compression as I could only find the code for hot-keying to "normal"

I really need to figure this one out because like you said it's very repetitive.
I'm sick of hitting that plus key.

This is from a post a couple of years ago by a member called Fr8monkey.

Set max TC with one single hit?

Goto (C:\programs)\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Cfg\Com mands_en.cfg and open with Notepad/Editor.

Scroll to [Cmd5] and add

Key1=0x6A,R,"Npad *"

It shall look like this:

[Cmd5]
Name=Time_compr_increase
Ctxt=1,2,6,9
MnID=0x3F010001
Key0=0x6B,,"Npad +"
Key1=0x6A,R,"Npad *"

Save your changes!

This will make it so hitting the (*) key will bump you instantly to max TC.

Worked like a charm! Thanks again!

I guess Steve's just too quick for me today...

Glad you're sorted and good hunting!

It truth I suspect it's a matter of right place, right time.
