Bugs in original game

There are some known bugs in the original game:

Engine

  • The game files are stored with up to 8 bits per channel. However, all textures seem to be converted to A4R4G4B4 or A1R5G5B5 during loading (which reduces the visual quality)
  • Right clicking a main menu item will leave that menu, when re-entering the menu, the menus hover effect is missing until it's clicked again
  • Hitting enter on selected menu item always goes forward, even if "Cancel" is selected
  • When one engine exploded, the other one is shown inside out (bad culling)
  • Sometimes re-spawns you directly infront of an obstacle you can't pass because you can't even accelerate enough
  • "Lens flares" and "Smoke and dust" will silently be disabled if they are not supported on the system, no warning/error is emitted
  • Best times are not saved on fast PCs
  • Various issues at high framerates
  • Texture filter which (probably) should only invert color (and preserve alpha) always sets alpha to 0xF (100%)

Courses

Abyss

Aquilaris
