The Options.txt file literally keeps changing it back to 35 every time, why?

Should I change it to read only?

Thank you! This game is surprisingly playable on modern pc and os with this guide.

In reply to previous comment:
For controller support I believe you have to use something like xpadder and manually setup keys.

Where is working config for controller?

how about a mod that makes the game run at a solid 60? (30 is fine.)

Thanks, unforunately no there is a unfinished buggy one which isn't worth it, but there are lots of car mods out there.

Awesome guide thank you, are there maybe any mods that improve graphics even more?
