- You can disable the Digital Music to increase speed.
- You can turn the sound off completely.
-
-
- ** We've balanced the game's speed for slow and fast video cards.
- However, it is unavoidable that the game will be very difficult on
- blazing fast video cards.
-
-
- Video Cards:
- Stealth VRAM -- You need the latest drivers
- or you'll lose mouse control.

- Stereo is disabled on shipping Demo and Release !!!!
- You must either Run F18NFZ, press F2 and Change it, exit F18NFZ and Run

-
- NOTE: Stereo is a speed decrease in the game's performance;
- you can press F2 and lower the detail options to compensate.
- Or play the game in mono-sound.
- You can also turn the digital music off.
-
- Stereo is also a memory hog.
