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.

  1. Go to <path-to-game>\Media folder.
  2. Look for the lens_flare_offset.bin file and copy it.
  3. Paste this file into the <path-to-game>\Common folder.

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.[5]

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
  2. 2.0 2.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/4730/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (4730) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.

    "All this art is great, but without an engine to power it, it’s not going to be much of a game. To this end we’ve been using our in-house Sunshine engine to make it all whizz around at high speed. If you’ve played our OutRun conversions, VT3 or Sega Superstars Tennis, you’ve already played with Sunshine!"
