Fullscreen installer
- During installation, the installer goes fullscreen like many 90's era installers did. An error message sometimes appearsbehind the full screen installer background. The error itself isn't a problem, but clicking 'OK' requires using alt+tab or ctrl+alt+delete (and enter task manager) to be able to see said error. This might take a few tries since it's such a wonky process.
- This game is from an era where PC games asked what graphics card you had, and the list is very small and outdated. Pick the card that looks and runs best on your machine.
- Do not force anti-aliasing, it will create some long black line artifacts. Only tested with MSAA so far.
