Revision as of 17:05, 5 May 2021 by 2a01:cb11:3e1:1000:f488:68bd:db2a:3daf (talk) (I just played through it and to my surprise it was running at 60 FPS. Last time was two years ago and it was still 30, I have no idea what changed since then. If that's relevant, I was forcing the "Fast" synch through the NV panel, and the widescreen mod.)
