As part of the usual debugging text, full filenames for every source file were included.Debug text from before has been replaced/supplemented with weirder debug text.Graphics options still exist via hacking, but the resolution is locked at 640×480 and cannot be changed.F10 pauses the game until next keypress (dings when key is struck) unless you hit Enter, which acts like pressing Alt + Space. Draw distance cap seems to have been removed for F1 and F2, meaning you can set the draw distance to absurdly high levels without needing a memory or hex editor. No visible graphics options but F-keys still work.Otherwise, graphics files are completely unchanged. This is likely for the new text "2004 edition" in the credits screen.
It's slightly more bearable to listen to.
EXE parameters have been added, presumably for debugging purposes.All the resources for the old DirectX test menu have been removed.Also, the controls work on modern systems without needing a DirectX windower. It no longer crashes on high-speed CPUs, either. It does not crash when Windows is switched to Security Desktop (locked screen/UAC).As such, all 8-bit bitmaps were also removed. DirectDraw support was dropped only Direct3D is supported. The 2004 version requires DirectX 9+, whereas the old version only needed DirectX 6+.Unlike the old version where the game was fully set up ready to go on the disk and was simply copied on installation, the 2004 version embeds the program files in an InstallShield installer. The program cannot be run directly from the disc.They are "Randomization tables" used for unknown reasons. New files "/bin/randtab.bin" and "/bin/randtab2.bin" were added.
