On the Options page on my copy it prints V 0.1.0000 at the bottom left of the screen.

Mainly the level Magnachem Mayhem which seems to lack any level graphics whatsoever (I'd enclose a screen-grab but I haven't figured out how to do that in Linux). It's not a major problem as you can play around it, but it's sure annoying. I've also noticed that occasionlly you'll find an indestructable opponent and can only comlete the race by the boring method of being first across the finish-line.

I definitely took corners with more ease on the original MS-DOS version. Carmageddon has always been one of my favourite games. I just find the carnage to be somewhat stress-relieving.

I've had a cursory look though the files and while I found the Models.ini where I can change the handling of the cars, fixing the gravity might sort the problem out globally.
