Hi,

I'm just getting back into XWA after maybe the early 2000s, and I have forgotten the keyboard command for increasing/decreasing game speed. I recall it being like a fast forward command where you can go 2x, 4x, 8x, and you can use it to speed through parts of the mission (e.g. when there's a lull in action).

This command doesn't seem to be in the keyboard map, so either I'm imagining things, or it was from a different game (TIE Fighter maybe?) or it was an unpublished command I found out from elsewhere. Google is also not helping me right now.

Thanks for your help!

Mhm.. can't remember that there was a speed-up command for XWA. I think I do remember it being in Tie Fighter but not in XWA. Could be wrong though. Certainly been a while since I last played it.

I concur, that command was only available for TIE Fighter, X-W, XVT and XWA did not have one
