Additional Comments

There are some gotchas: 1) Installation If pwd is not CD's root, setup.exe won't find files. 2) Configuration If you don't have any ddraw hardware acceleration (including if you set DirectDrawRenderer to gdi), configuration tool will get stuck in an infinite loop, displaying error dialog after error dialog. 3) Running Performance is very poor on current Debian sid nvidia proprietary drivers (275.28) - oprofile shows half of cpu user time being spent in libnvidia-glcore.so.275.28, and 30% of overall CPU being spent in kernel (supposedly in nvidia.ko). Setting the following registry key improves the situation up to the game being playable on my machine, although not perfectly fluent: OffscreenRenderingMode: backbuffer Lastly, there are some occasional physics bugs, where a car (bot- or player-controlled) gets blown sky-high or falls in the world. Some tracks suffer from this bug more than others.
