Is there anybody out there

Hi guys , and girls

I really need your help this time

1).
In the SH3 "Main " file , there is something called
ParticleDensity= 100.000000" so I adjust it to "200" (instead of 100)

I did the same in "My Documents" sh3 , can I see some change:hmm:

2). If I go to Murmansk , can I run into convoys:hmm: or not

Thanks for all help

I would think that you probably would run into convoys up there as I've read about other people sinking vessels in that general area. I don't know anything about your first question though.

Waitwaitwait.......

You just go into the main file and change things without knowing what they do? Doesn't that work out badly on occasion?

Exactly,don't touch what you don't understand is my motto

If you have to tinker,ask the clever bods here first,most of them have forgot more than we will ever know,don't waste the fountain of experience and knowledge that rests within these forum pages

Hey! I fiddle with things I don't understand two or three times a week!

Of course, from my recent posts you all know that I also re-install my whole game two or three times a week!
:rotfl:

No, they're right: if you don't want to re-install as much as I do, don't touch anything until you know what it does.

OK particle density should not be more than 100.0000etc. This is set using the menu. It will most likely make your machine crawl a bit more or if you have a high end machine reduce your framerate.

IIRC it's actually a percentage so I'm not sure if 200 will do anything. My advice; leave that setting alone unless you know what it does. Mind you, report back and tell us what it does, unless it makes molten slag of your GFX card.

If you look in the game under the options/video settings screen, you will see a slider called particle density that goes from 0 to 100%, that is what you are messing with in the main cfg file. I would suggest you put it back to 100.
