Essential improvements
Alternate installer
- Allows the game to be installed from the original CD on 64-bit Windows.
- Also patches the game, rips the music from the CD, adds winmm.dll to play the music from the hard drive and removes the CD check.
Patches
- The latest version is 2.0.1. Install the 1.1 Update, 2.0 Update, and 2.0.1 Update.
- Use the Outlaws D3D Update to add Direct3D rendering and support for higher resolutions (requires the 2.0.1 Update).
Outlaws Mouse Helper
- Enables changing weapons by scrolling the mouse wheel up/down and other useful functions with the mouse wheel and the middle and right mouse buttons.
Higher quality graphics
The dgVoodoo wrapper, unlike nGlide, allows for enabling translucency effects, anisotropic filtering and antialiasing.
Use the dgVoodoo 2 wrapper[1] |

The Windows mouse pointer (or the blue, "working" circle) briefly flashes on screen while playing.
Enable Vsync[citation needed] |

Cutscenes play too fast (XP)

Software rendering mode
Using software rendering restores the game's original, full-sized HUD (with the gold bar along the bottom) and sepia effects.
Patched re-releases of the game allow software rendering only in windowed mode. The instructions below allow it in fullscreen.
(DirectX 10+) Use the dgVoodoo 2 wrapper[5] |

(DirectX 9 and earlier) Use the dgVoodoo 1.50 wrapper[5] |
