 Known bugs/issues:
 * Serial support doesn't work. (UDP and IPX networking does)
-* Movies (unlikely ever to be supported)
 * Sound glitches (due to stuff I haven't implemented)
 * The mouse support is at the same level as it was in d1x (as in, it
   kind of works)
-* Something went screwy with the control config system, it kinda got "d1xed"...
-* OpenGL leaks memory like it is going out of fashion. It leaked about
-  64meg in a few minutes for me. I need to debug this =)
 
 
 MS-DOS:
 =======
 
+Dos support isn't a high priority right now, so things may be a little

 Required tools:
 * DJGPP v2
 The following DJGPP packages are ALL REQUIRED (newer versions are ok)!
