Thanks for all the info on various time zones. However, as I have said many times, this is NOT a time zone issue. Time zones are all off an even number of hours. I am on mission 3 and have had 36 hours and 41 minutes straight of darkness in AN26 and AN16, east of England. It sucks when your clock says it is 11:16 (on 24 hour military cycle) and it is still pitch black out so you can't see ships in the scope.

And, no, I am not running any mods, as I said initially. It is a plain version from Steam.

I do not run compression higher than 128 times - ever, and most of the time I stay at 32 or 64.

I have checked the file validation on Steam and there are no issues.

I have saved games when I was unable to locate a ship after trying for 8 hours to get a shot, and restarted at an earlier time to try again. I can'[t imagine that this would cause the clock problem.

Again, when you hover the mouse over the clock, it says "Local Time". Maybe the mods some of you are using say "GMT". I wish that the issue was time zones, because then it would make sense.

I never claimed AI purchased the game from SUBSIM. Do they even sell the game?

This site was recommended to me on Steam.

I have read ALL the documentation many times and there is nothing that helps with this issue. I did not have this issue when playing the game in 2005.

Why are you criticizing me for trying to get help from people who supposedly know all the details about this game? The issues I am having are real and I need helpful suggestions, not trash.

There is nothing to buy.. you just have to download the mod... then unzip it... create a shortcut on your desktop eventually..that's all..!!
Really read the doc provided... read rather than want to go faster... and not understand anything it becomes tiring to go around the same subjects without stopping... here on the forum.. in the docs.... everything is clear... it's incredible you ramble like grandpas... the cause: everyone wanting to 'eat' without taking the time to understand..that's the today's internet world...everyone devours videos...faster...faster...but I don't read it's too tiring...then I ask someone like that I have nothing to do. ..lol anything.."LOL"

I add @les green01 if it is to provide this kind of response I would abstain in your place besides your posts here and elsewhere it is the same with you...help stop telling your life story..

For someone who has been hanging around for 15 years, you don't shine with your work...
at no time do you provide help here... as I said, tell your life story and give random answers that have nothing to do with what is being asked is your specialty... what do I smoke..?? ? you... you should smoke you would be less stupid...
the controversy will stop here.. I don't discuss with stupid people they might become intelligent.. I will abstain with you and resume what animates us here.. don't insist thank you..!!!

He plays Onealex mod there is no steam...it's one of the easiest mods to install...I seem to have given plenty of explanations as well as "doolar" so if it's not clear it stops the computer. ..people don't understand.. he doesn't read.. he has a machine that he doesn't master.. he doesn't know how to adjust it very often he buys a machine without understanding the technology he uses..besides his PC and so fast that he doesn't have time to see daylight in his countryside...

Thank you for the help. Yes, saving, exiting and then reloading does not fix the clock issue, which gets worse as the mission goes longer. Once I saved and exited at around 21:50 and the sun was just starting to set. When I reloaded to continue the next day it was the same time, only it was pitch black out with stars in the sky.

I have a really fast computer that I use for video editing and wonder if that is the problem.

Very could be with this being a old game but I hope you get it figured out and enjoy your game
