time acceleration near ports

Zajcev · 03-24-08, 08:51 AM

Is there any way to enable time acceleration when you are near certain ports like Lorient or the British port in north west Scotland? I thought I could visit the Scottish port, I got as close as I could, but now lots of destroyers appeared so I chose to travel underwater. But time acceleration is not possible anymore, and according to the map I still need like 1.5 hours to get to the port. Obviously I don't want to wait for this long, when the port might be empty. Is there any mod or trick to enable time acceleration for such ports?

I found out it can be set in c:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\My Documents\SH3\data\cfg\main.cfg

[TIME COMPRESSION]
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=16
CriticalDamage=1
CrewEfficiency=1
AirEnemyDetected=1
SoundEffects=2
CharacterAnim=4
EnemyDetected=8
RadioReport=8
Particles=8
PrayState=8
HunterState=32
3DRender=32
Maximum=1024

LandProximity=16 means maximum time acceleration is 16 when near land, default is 1.

If you're using SH3 commander you can change the time compression from the
sh3 commander options menu so you don't need to mod any cfg files.

You can max up to x4096 on some parameters .....if you have a death wish
