Mouse smoothing and mouse sensitivity applies to keyboard and gamepad turning.

Field of view range from 70 to 120. At anything higher than 100, texture loading may begin to exhibit odd behaviour; While this should not dramatically impact performance, it might look pretty weird.

Vsync and antialiasing are off by default and recommended to be off for performance.

Certain transitions and shader effects may produce rapidly flashing lights or changing colours; if you have a history of photosensitivity, seizures etc., please proceed with caution.

Only tested on Windows 7. Monitors with aspect ratios other than 16:9 may experience odd bar effects in fullscreen mode.
Game prioritizes Xbox-controllers over Dualshock etc.; if you wish to play on Dualshock or other controller, please unplug or deactivate your active Xbox-controllers.
