Key points
- Gameplay locked to 30 FPS, cutscenes locked to 15 FPS. Requires mod to change cutscenes to 30FPS.
- Max resolution locked to 1280 x 960. Requires modding to increase to widescreen 1920x1080 or 1920x1200. FMVs are stretched, though there are not a lot of FMVs in the game anyway.
- Only supports Dinput for controllers and default bindings are awkward. Controls should be adjusted. No true analog support.
- It is highly recommended to adjust the default brightness and contrast. Brightness = 3, Contrast = 8, default gamma looks fine.
