Time compression

SOH-CM-2023
Had to search back for info on this and came across the following. Is it still the case?


Can anybody help me with ETO Time Compression? The(-time) and (Ctrl+Shift+E)(Ctrl+Shift+R)works for original CFS3 but not for ETO. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.





UPDATE: I managed to figure it out: Edit the "MASTERETOSTARTUP.bat" file in the "CFS3 ETO Expansion" directory, uncheck the read only. Add "-time" after cfs3.exe and save the file.
See Below

@ECHO OFF
CLS
CALL ETOEraSwapper.bat
CD "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\CFS3 ETO Expansion\global_layer"
CALL ETOGLSwapper.bat
START cfs3.exe -time
 
UPDATE!

1. CFS3 ETO Expansion and associated installs does work as advised above.

2. My Non CFS3 ETO Expansion TOW installs needed a new shortcut added.
Make a new cfs3.exe shortcut. Under 'properties add to 'target' -time, as in "C:\C TOW Pt.1 1940-1942\cfs3.exe" -time or whatever. Other properties remain the same but use this shortcut to open the install.

(Ctrl+Shift+E) time compression x2,3,8, etc.
(Ctrl+Shift+R) reverses compression respectively
