Has the game been fixed or is it still bugged / broken as posts from 2021 suggest?

1. The game needs to be capped to 30 FPS (e.g. using RTSS), else the physics calculations will be off--things get weirder as FPS increases beyond 30 FPS.

2. In order to enable widescreen resolutions, some guesswork must currently be performed in the Registry (see above link for details).

3. I also mention a possible fix for Alt+Tab crashes, which utilises dgVoodoo 2 (again, see above link).

4. There also seems to be an issue with save file pathing, when the user's Documents directory is not found on drive C. The executable is literally hardcoded to the following path: "C:\Documents and Settings\%s\My Documents\SCi\DesertStorm". One would have to create a Junction (or perhaps a SymLink) from this hypothetical location to the actual desired location in one's system.

For example (via PowerShell):

New-Item -Path "C:\Documents and Settings\$env:USERNAME\My Documents" -Name "SCi\DesertStorm" -ItemType Junction -Target "D:\Users\$env:USERNAME\Documents\SCi\DesertStorm"

Note: Modify "-Target" path, as required.

With all of the above accounted for, the game appears to be working just fine on Windows 10.
