Changes from v1.1 to v1.11 (12 March 2001)
- GFI should no longer exit if it can't find a sound card. This means that people with no sound cards can play GFI (with no sound of course!).
- The menus now have sound! Also the sound code has been rewritten so it should be a little smoother.
- GFI will now pick an appropriate video driver for you rather than forcing DirectX. Hopefully this should allow GFI to work on more PCs (some people have reported problems when GFI attempts to set the default 640 by 480 DirextX video mode).
