Checked in Polish version:

* there is an unused function for displaying FPS, this could be re-enabled with some magic
** call this function in rendering function
** it takes FPS value from one uint32_t which is always 0, so we would need to update it too
*** there is unused value that counts all frames
* there is function setting version string in memory, that string is never used anywhere, but can be read in Cheat Engine
** my Polish version says <code>Version: Jun 7 2001 - 14:42:11</code>
* V-sync is always on, surfaces are created in DirectDraw both for D3D and Glide, framerate is set to 0 forcing v-sync
** Game can run on any framerate just fine
** <code>disable framerate correction</code> assumes the monitor refresh rate is 60Hz, time delta is locked(?), so on 120Hz display everything will be 2 times faster
* <code>UV fix</code> is only used in D3D, I don't know what it does
* wads/fonts.wad: <code>graphics24/fonts/index.txt</code> - uses ISO-8859-1 encoding (tested in Polish version, YMMV)
** Although it seems that only <code>graphics24/fontsP</code> is used and not <code>graphics24/fonts</code>, fontsP stores text in UTF-16
* It was compiled with Visual C++ 6.0, so it was made probably in Visual Studio 6.0
* There are exported functions with names that would imply usage of IBM Rational Purify debugger, however they don't do much except for incrementing one variable after being called.
* <code>game.cfg</code> stores path to game assets in <code>GAMELOCATION</code> key. By default it's set to installation path, e.g. <code>C:\Team17\SGP</code>, but it can also be set to dot (<code>.</code>) to allow for portable version of the game. The path still might require no spaces in it to run
