+#### Useful notes
+
+* Some modes are not functional
+* Some modes may generate broken savefiles. Proceed with caution.
+* `GAME_MODE_MAP` – starts the game with heaps money and EXP, in a Dodge, with heaps of other vehicles. However, the game start in the map at the invalid location. To escape it without crashing, zoom in to a road and select a road to teleport to. Then, make sure to buy a house (or multiple houses) to store your vehicles. If you do not, you are guaranteed to generate a broken savefile.
+
+### Select map – `AddLevel`
+
+```
+AddLevel				= "HAWAI"			// Level Choose
+//LoadIGE					= "KOMO MAI"	// load ige from file (created by gme)
+```
+
+Possibly allows you to access test maps.
+
+### Edit traffic – (multiple variables)
+
+```
+// VehicleMaxCount is the hard limit of simultaneous AI vehicles
+// But you can set TrafficMaxCount+ParkedMaxCount > VehicleMaxCount
+// Example: vehicle=16 traffic=16 parked=8
+//  -> you can spawn up to 16 traffic if no parked vehicles on the area,
+//     but only spawn up to 8 traffic if 8 parked are here
+//     and 0 parked cars if 16 traffic cars are already spawned
+//
+VehicleMaxCount		=	4 //4	//2	//16
+TrafficMaxCount		=	5 //4	//1	//14
+ParkedMaxCount		=	0 	//1	//8
+```
+
+and
+
+```
+// Maximum count of Traffic AI that will be physics enabled at the same time
+PhysicsMaxCount			=	4
+```
+
+and
+
+```
+PoliceMaxCount			=	0			// between 0 & 16 
+										// NB : TrafficMaxCount + ParkedMaxCount + PoliceMaxCount must be <= 15
+										// if PoliceMaxCount > 0
+```
+
+It is all in the comments
+
+### Change difficulty – `OpponentDifficulty`
+
+```
+OpponentDifficulty		=	1.0			// between 0.0f & 1.0f
+```
+
+normally, the game runs at max difficulty.
+
+### Enable debugging – `RemoteDebugger`
+
+```
+RemoteDebugger		=	0
+```
+
+### Tune cars and edit houses data – `[CarStateConfig]`
+
+```
+[CarStateConfig]
+```
+
+The entire section
+
+### Online global multiplayer capabilities – `[Online]`
+
+Test Drive Unlimited servers were shut down. However, if someone can re-create a server, a global-scale multiplayer game can be made a reality!
+
+```
+[Online]
+```
+
+The entire section. Look at, for example,
+
+```
+				// Database Server	SERVER PORT
+//Server			"192.168.0.87"		4501
+//Server				"tdu1"		4501
+//Server				"62.39.158.22"		4501
+//Server				"none"		none
+Server				"none"		none
+
+				// Database Login	Database Pass
+//DefaultLogin			"none"			"edenpwd"
+DefaultLogin			"amh-retail"	""
+
+				// Server address , none = LAN discovery
+
+// INTERNET / LAN
+//Lobbying			"tdu.testdriveunlimited.com"
+//Lobbying			"tdu1"
+Lobbying 			"none"
+```
+
+### Unexplored – (multiple variables)
+
+```
+GrassAsTarmac		=	0
+
+ArtPreviewCars 0
+
+TRACETIMINGTEXT 1 
+NET_CORRECTION_DISTRIBUTION		"CCCCPPCPPP"
+```
+
+
+## SYSPSP.INI
+
+### Set timer (time of day?) – `SetTimer`
+
+Sets time of day?
+
+```
+[System]
+SetTimer		= FIXED_TIME	//  REAL_TIME, refresh rate is realt time
+								//  FIXED_TIME, refresh rate is fixed to video system
+```
+
+### Video settings – `[Video]`
+
+Can possibly improve quality.  
+
+```
+[Video]
+SetVideo		= NTSC			// PAL50 or PAL60 or NTSC or NTSCJ
+SetWindowed		= TRUE			// Window or FullScreen ?
+```
