Steel Panthers World at War Speed

Post by DaveLogan »

Hi. When I run SP:WAW all of the grey message pop up boxes are here and gone like lightning. It makes it a little hard to know if I'm doing anything when I fire on something. Is there a way to fix this? I'm running 8.20.

What is the speed of your video card, machine & amount of installed memory?

In preferences, set your "Live Delay" to a small number such as 10 and set your "Message Delay" to a large number such as 100.
These are the settings I use.

Live Delay is the time you wait for the message to appear and Message Delay is the time the message is shown on the screen

Whenever you delete the steel.prf file they default to 200 and 10 respectively.

If you want the game to move faster, set them both to XXX
They struggled with a ferocity that was to be expected of brave men fighting with forlorn hope against an enemy who had the advantage of position......knowing that courage was the one thing that would save them.
