Essential improvements

Mission mods

Destination Paris is a mod that makes the game more challenging.
A modding community for the game still exists.

Custom resolution

Example of graphical glitch experienced with horizontal resolution of 1920px.
Widescreen-ready executables - Just pick the one you want, rename the old one, put the new executable and rename it to "comm2". When you start the game, choose 800x600 resolution.
Retail versions need to have 1.2 patch installed to work.
Destination Paris will not work with this.

Manual process

You need to override one (or more) of the four built-in resolution options with the custom resolution(s) you want.
Horizontal resolutions above 1440px, when playing non-tutorial missions, cause major graphical glitches and also crashes the game when zooming.
