xg2pc.exe to the game installation folder and replace the existing file.

- The executables in the attachment are based on the retail US version which was already hex edited to prevent crashing on Windows XP and later.

- Open
xg2pc.exe with a hex editor such as HxD.
- Press Ctrl+G and go to one of the following offsets and change the values:
000CA480 - FOV (default value is 60 or 00 00 70 42 )
000CA487 - draw distance (default value is 1 or 00 00 80 3F )
000C3D3D - fog distance (default value is 0.2 or CD CC 4C 3E )
- Example:
- Increase FOV value from 60 to 120:
00 00 70 42 => 00 00 F0 42
- Increase draw distance value from 1 to 3:
00 00 80 3F => 00 00 40 40
- Decrease fog distance value from 0.2 to 0.1:
CD CC 4C 3E => CD CC CC 3D
