dgVoodoo 2
- Removes DirectX 7 resolution limit, so the game can be played at resolutions higher than 2048x2048.
- Using dgVoodoo 2 to force higher resolution, instead of setting it in the game options menu, makes the game render the menus and mission briefing screens at higher resolutions and can be used to increase the size of in-game interface.
