Mouse cursor trails in Encyclopedia
Launch the Encyclopedia from within the game instead of directly; the mouse cursor will then display normally.
Very poor performance, blocky textures, grey colors / distortion, poor particle effects
Delete any copies of the files vidcard.csv
and badcard.csv
in your MC2 folder.
