Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 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>/99120/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (99120) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.

    Attempted to raise the frame-rate cap to 120 FPS on a 60Hz display caused mouse cursor movement to move slowly whereas mouse movement worked fine at 60 FPS. Cannot be certain if this is true for 120Hz displays with a 120 FPS cap.
