Is there a way to set time compression greater than 1024?

Also, where do we set the automatic time compressions for events? Like 'drop to time compression 1 when ship is spotted'?

edit: Thanks in advance!

download and install "SH3 Commander"

it allows you to make various tweaks just as you have mentioned.

Steam version is exactly the same as CD, you can mod it to oblivion and you can still play. Just make sure you make a back-up, so you don't have to redownload the game. Don't move the file outside of the steamapps folder and don't rename it. Mine is working fine, and I've got mod borscht.

Or you can go to your MyDocuments folder Like this MyDocuments\SH3\Data\Cfg

Now find the file called {main} and open it. Second group down on the list is time compresion. change it to what you want. click file/save .....done!

Thanks everyone, SH3commander works on steam versions. It's a really useful tool, I just wish the 'start out of port' option would work.

Anyway, thanks again.

SH3 Commander allows an increase of up to x4096.....not advised unless your machine is of a high enough spec to cope.

I set myself a 128x TC limit. Kinda slow, but gives me a slight idea of all that waiting the real guys did.

I've found that it's a good idea to set the "when enemy plane/ship spotted" time compression settings to 1. Damage can accrue very quickly & before you can do anything about it you're sunk...

On a par with SH4

Can't imagine any need to go higher.

But then, Mr Gates did once say that 640K ought to be enough for anybody...

bigboywooly · 01-24-09, 07:42 PM

Phah what would he know
Doubt he has ever played SH series
LMAO

8192 is more than enough
Esp when you drop to 1 TC with a DD 300mtr away
