Longer Messages Hack

Post by K 19 »

A few hex editing hacks were recently taught to me by a mysterious 'Mr. X'. [8D] Much thanks to this anonymous person. You have made the game much more enjoyable for me.

One of the hacks increases the yellow game messages time from 2 seconds to 4 seconds. 2 seconds is just too short in my opinion. 4 seconds at least gives you a chance to read each message before it disappears.

The other hack basically ignores 'over target area' message which centers the map on message level settings 1 or 2. This means the map won't jump around quite so much anymore, especially due to the large number of recon aircraft missions. You will still hear the engine sounds each time an aircraft is over target, but the map won't center on them anymore. But when aircraft attack or bomb ground targets, the map will still center on it. You won't miss anything important.

Anyone interested please private message me.

Maybe he can tell you other things that could/should be "fixed" regarding the EXE, worth a try.
