Issues fixed
3D Acceleration problems
Running the game with 3D acceleration turned on may cause crashes or graphics problems on some modern machines. If you experience problems, try the following steps (you may have to do this every time you launch the game):

Menu/cutscenes run in a window even when game is set to fullscreen
If you run the game with the -windowgui command line parameter, or if you have the Steam version, all menus and cutscenes will run in a window, even if the game is set to fullscreen. This is normal.
If you get a black screen instead of the menu, Alt+Tab ↹ away from the game and back. Alternatively, run the game with the -windowgui
command line parameter.
Resolution issues
Running the game in a widescreen resolution is not recommended. The horizontal FOV is locked to a 4:3 aspect ratio, so running the game in widescreen will make everything look stretched horizontally.
The game's HUD and on-screen messages do not scale based on resolution; running the game at high resolutions may make them too small to see.
Changing the resolution in mid-mission is not recommended.
HUD does not appear, or screen has black border
Press - and = to adjust the screen size. Ideally it should be 9.
Miscellaneous fixes
On Windows Vista and 7, try setting JK.exe (JKM.exe for MOTS) to run in XP SP2 compatibility mode, with visual themes and desktop composition disabled.
If you are using an nVidia graphics card and the game crashes, try disabling Antialiasing, Texture Antialiasing, and Conformant Texture Clamp for JK.exe (JKM.exe for MOTS) in your graphics card settings.
