game stuck on paused

This is caused by a corruption of the main.cfg file in either the SH3 folder in My Documents or the main.cfg file in SilentHunterIII/data/Cfg. What usually happens is this section is missing in one of them.

[TIME COMPRESSION]
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=128
CriticalDamage=1
CrewEfficiency=1

SoundEffects=2
CharacterAnim=4
EnemyDetected=8
RadioReport=8

The fix is to copy the good one and paste it over/replace the bad one and save.
