Notes
The aforementioned widescreen fix (15:9, 16:9, 16:10, 21:9 and 25:16 aspect ratios are supported) is divided into three levels:
- Low - basic widescreen fix, which corrects 3D image, but leaves HUD stretched;
- Medium - fixes width of the HUD elements at the bottom right, but slightly corrupts service area;
- High - adjusts width of almost all HUD elements, but besides the distorted service area, it decreases the text quality, because the fonts textures had to be narrowed. Also, the font textures come from ENG/GER/FRA/ITA/SPA version and may not function correctly with other language versions.

Issues unresolved
- PC version lacks dynamic music themes change in menus. It's working only in Singleplayer Demo, both Multiplayer Demo and finished game (both 1.0 and 1.01 versions) hasn't this feature, despite music files weren't changed from Singleplayer Demo. Probably, it's some bug in game executable, that was made very late in development.
Issues fixed
Vsync setting not applied
The Vsync option doesn't take effect until I exit the game and open it again.
