Version 3 runs a little slowly here at 1024x768 32 bit, what I'd consider the "right" speed at 1024x768 16-bit, and almost too fast at 800x600 16-bit: 1.4 GHz Athlon, GeForce 3 Ti 200. I agree that the viewpoint seems a little high. Very nice otherwise, with the lightmaps, headbob, etc. Good luck getting into the course!
