This title has been tested on the environments listed below:

Test Entries
Revision	OS	CPU	GPU	Result	Tester
r6676	Windows 7	Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 @ 2.67 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT	Playable (30-40FPS, big freezes, small graphic artifacts)
r7250	Windows XP	Intel Pentium E2180 @ 2 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce 7100 GS	Perfect (45-50FPS)
4.0-4803	Ubuntu 14.10	Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650	Starts. At the end of the Netherrealm segment of Konquest mode the game will autosave and then load the Nexus; this autosave will corrupt and break your profile causing you to lose all progress. The game also hung on a FIFO Overflow error once as well. When it works it plays with only very minor graphical glitches at consistent 100% speed, but it's impossible to complete Konquest mode because of the save corruption. All other modes tested work fine however.	Xerxes
4.0-5078	Ubuntu 14.10	Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650	Almost perfect. I replayed the game again after deleting my save and I made it past the part where the profile corrupted before, so it must have been an isolated case. My suggestion is not to use savestates. Also Ashrah's spinning special moves with the particle effects used to make the game stutter and could cause a FIFO Overflow, but after 4.0-5070 this seems to be much more stable. The only graphical problems I noticed were Shujinko's mouth in cutscenes floating as a square in front of his face, and around some pieces of scenery I could see through the floor, but neither of these are really noticeable at native resolution and neither affect gameplay.	Xerxes
4.0-6144	Windows 7	Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300	AMD Radeon HD 7870	There are black lines on the floor under the feet of the characters circling them, especially noticeable in Konquest Mode, no options seem to fix that, but runs at a stable 60FPS and is otherwise pretty good emulated.	Pit-O-Matic
