    [​IMG] Now, I know that there is an in-game-clock that decides when romance dialogues should "pop-up". The "clock" reacts with a real-time system which counts the amount of time you've spent in front of the computer.
    I was wondering if anyone out (t)here knows a way to alter/edit this "clock" so that you don't need to wait A WHOLE HOUR for the next dialogue to appear. Any help will be appreciated...

    And IIRC, you just put a number of seconds to advance instead of x.

    [EDIT]
    Are you sure you want to move the clock actually? It will affect everything that depends on real time, not only romances. You could do the same thing with setting only timers.

    The most important thing about romances is that their progress depends on the time you spend in front of your PC. The real time – not ingame time. About every 30 mins to an hour of playing, the next romance dialog will appear (not exactly true – depends on chapters, locations and NPC you are romancing). . The more time you spend – the more chance that you’ll successfully finish the romance. Generally each love dialog that is not triggered by the rest button should appear after a same amount of real time has passed. Of course, if you are in dungeon for all of that time, the dialog will appear as soon as you exit the dungeon. Also, some dialogs will appear only when certain creatures are spoken to. Anyway, the timers are different for each NPC and there is a “delay” timer that is used when first timer expires. So I was wondering if any of you guys know a way to edit/alter the "dialogue time" and the "delay time", not through the console, but by editing the FILE which is used to control the romance dialogues. Sorry if I am too much trouble, but any help will be helpful.

    Wow I must spend hourse on my PC, I get about ten Romance Dialogs a time without cheating (Thanks for the code Extremist I need that to test something)

    Fatigue doesn't count on real time it counts on ingame time
