Essential improvements
Windows 95 Restoration Pack
This official patch adds the Windows 95 version of the game, alongside the DOS version.
The Windows 95 version allows the game to run at a higher native resolution and with higher frame rates. However, it is not as stable as the DOS version (some AMD/ATI cards have issues running it) and has poor multiplayer support.
It can be found here.

~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/282010/in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (282010) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
