Two Technical Questions

[tylerhink]

Hey everyone! I'm new to HoI3 but a veteran to the series (and other Paradox games). I'm playing on a Mac and I was wondering if there is a keyboard shortcut to increase/decrease speed on a Mac. Second, I was wondering if there is a way to make all military units display their 3d icons (like those found in HoI2) instead of the boxed unit icons. Thanks!

You can choose in the option whether to use counters (NATO box symbols) or pretty little soldiers and tanks.
As for the Mac, I'm not familiar with that. On IBM keyboards it's just [+] and [-].

I think you can choose to turn the counters on or off in the settings, hit escape and look around over there.
I wouldnt know about a Mac.

+ to increase speed, - to decrease. Same as on the PC.

No keyboard shortcut for toggling counters and sprites -- you need to open the "options" menu, select the "Video" tab, and remove or add the checkmark next to "Use Counters."
