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.

Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/278080/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (278080) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
