Thanks, Jaesen, for being so kind, but even as you were writing, so was I. See my 'edit' above.

Oh, and I like your new manual, too. Overall a great piece of work.

Default TIP!

<muses> I really should have added a "Tips" page to SH3Cmdr...oh well.

Wolfehunter's screenshot reminded me of something that some of you may find useful.

You are not stuck with the date format of ddd, MMM d, yyyy. You can change this easily by editing a line in SH3Cmdr_**.txt:

Code:
;Date format
;If changing #250, must only use combination of d dd ddd mmm or yyyy
;All abbreviations should be the same character length - pad with '.'
;Day labels are retrieved from en_menu.txt
250=ddd, MMM d, yyyy
For example, Australians may like to use:
Code:
250=ddd d MMM yyyy
Germans may like to add periods.

And so on.

I see that you are not running with ClearType turned on (unless it's just the image compression).

I recommend that all XP users turn ClearType font smoothing on, especially those with LCD displays. Vista users need not bother - it's on by default.

Check out http://www.microsoft.com/typography/...ClearType.mspx for more info.

I'm a vista user but I disabled all those Appearance tweaks. Actually I disable explorer too when it comes to gaming, also any other backround program running. I try to gain as much of system resources as possible.

And thanks also for mentioning ClearType. Hadn't a clue about it and had been grumbling a bit since putting this lcd in. What a difference!
