Issues unresolved
High mouse DPI causes erratic aiming
- The game uses a grid system for aiming which, when using the keyboard and mouse, relies on the standard 72 DPI for mice. Higher DPI breaks this system, resulting in erratic aiming and camera movement.[2]
| Use EDF 5 Mod Loader |

Notes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
- File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data.
- Games with Steam Cloud support may also store data in
~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/1007040/. - Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (1007040) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
- See the glossary page for details on Windows data paths.
