Essential improvements

OutRun 2 FXT

Replacement configuration tool that adds XInput rumble support, custom resolutions, windowed mode, additional camera views and more. Can be downloaded here.

Running FXTConfig.exe as admin for is required for first time use to apply its settings. Launch the game using OR2FXT.exe instead of its stock executable to ensure the modifications stick.

Before attempting to install texture replacement mods with OutRun FXT, make sure the <path-to-game>\FXTcfg\texpacks\original folder is empty and your game's files are not flagged as read-only to avoid errors.

Restore missing lens flare & bloom effects

A simple oversight with the PC conversion caused the lens flare and bloom effects from the console versions to go missing.

Instructions^[2]
Go to `<path-to-game>\Media` folder. Look for the `lens_flare_offset.bin` file and copy it. Paste this file into the `<path-to-game>\Common` folder.

Issues fixed

Run the game at screen refresh rate

Fullscreen mode defaults to 60 Hz, even if the screen refresh rate is set higher than that.

Set screen refresh rate^{[citation needed]}
Download Special K. Copy `SpecialK32.dll` to the installation folder. Rename `SpecialK32.dll` to `d3d9.dll`. Start the game and exit. Open `d3d9.ini` in the installation folder. Change `TargetFPS=0.0` to `TargetFPS=60.0`. Change `RefreshRate=-1` to `RefreshRate=0`.

OutRun 2 FXT: Overlay graphics occasionally popping up

OutRun 2 FXT includes a few new overlay graphics replacing their original counterparts, however this feature currently only works properly on fullscreen mode. Disabling Enable Overlay from the OutRun 2 FXT configuration tool may be preferable as the updated overlay graphics clashes with the stock GUI assets.^[7]
