Issues fixed
Impossible Arena has no music[1]
- Impossible Arena has no music when played, this is caused by a certain typographical error within the game itself which can be fixed unofficially, to apply the fix, open Jukebox.xml within the game folder using Notepad and insert these lines just below the "Impossible Race Theme": <SONG> * Impossible Arena Theme <NAME>Impossile Theme</NAME> <HEX>94</HEX>, save the file, then open the game and go to the arena, it should have its music restored now, take note that the "Impossile Theme" should not be corrected as this is the music name for Impossible Arena
Game has major graphical glitches[2]
- Turning on Safe mode within the in-game options may help solve this issue
