Version differences

The GOG.com and Steam versions are pre-patched with the newest patch (1.04).

Essential improvements

Patches

Patch 1.04 updates the game to the latest version.

Other Patches

SR - recompiled 32-bit executable that allows the game to run flawlessly on modern Windows and Linux systems with minimal setup. The Septerra.cfg file contains numerous settings, including windowed mode, display resolution, v-sync, and the ability to skip intro movies. If using a high DPI mouse, change "CPU_SleepMode" from "standard" to "reduced" or "nosleep" to prevent stutter.[3]
Peixoto's patch - allows nearest neighbor or xBRz scaling and has detailed instruction to correctly setup quicktime and solve issues with FMV playback
DSOAL - fixes a bug with the dialogue audio in the retail version. The bug is fixed in the GOG.com version.
