• SDL1 support is reinstated
• API calls not accessible on older Windows are either removed or made optional
• Added extra settings that could improve performance at the cost of visual quality
  • Hardware cursor option moved to settings
  • Font hinting mode moved to settings

Currently supported targets:

• Windows 95-XP, i486-compatible CPU

Known limitations:

• Some hardware may not be able to run more complex games. If the game runs too slow, you can try disabling fading, music, or using lower resolution;
  • Reasonable performance achievable on Pentium 3 or faster CPU;
  • Alpha-transparency is particularly slow, since it's done on the CPU; Games extensively using that will be slow;
• Only software rendering is available.
