Essential improvements
Patches
The 3dfx-patch and the Voodoo2-patch (requires the former) can be downloaded at soggi.org.
Windows 95 Restoration Pack
The Unofficial Max Pack 95 Restoration Project Pack adds the Windows 95 version of the game, alongside the DOS version.
The Windows 95 version allows the game to run at a higher native resolution and with higher frame rates. However, it is not as stable as the DOS version (some AMD/ATI cards have issues running it) and has poor multiplayer support.[4]
