Issues fixed

Loading freezes on Windows 8 and later

Freezes on loading screens on Windows 8 and later. The workaround for this is running the game in windowed mode and setting the executable to run in Windows 98 compatibility mode so that it only uses a single CPU core.[citation needed] This workaround is reported to not be perfect, though, and may not work for all players.
