engine
- atmospheric/environmental effects
- incremental vehicle damage: broken glass, dents, scrapes, off-centered steering, etc
- smoke: car (exhaust, tire skids), chimneys/smokestacks, train, welder torch
- sparks: car impact/scrape, steel pour, welder torch
- spray: broken fire hydrants, log mill sawdust, waterfall mist
- steam: some grates/vents and buildings, after breaking pipes from walls
- tire kick up: dirt, grass, ice, mud, snow, water

- environment mapping: cars (shadows, lights, etc)
- lighting: projected & vertex headlights, coronas, lens flare
- particle effects: explosions, fire hydrant water stream, sawdust, smoke, snow, sparks, steam, tire kickups, water drops
- physics: slippery surfaces (dirt, grass, ice, mud, snow), most pushable objects knockoverable
- shadows: tree/building shadows accurately cover cars when driving under them
- texture: bilinear filtering, mipmapping
environment
- locations: Europe: Auvergne, Italy (Corsica), Cote d'Azur, Germany (The Autobahn), France (Normandy, Pyrenees Mountains), industrial zone, Monte Carlo, Schwarzwald, Switzerland (The Alps)
- interaction
- break: crates, pipes from walls
- knockover/push: billboards, chairs, dumpsters, fire hydrants, hazard pylons & sawhorses, pipe, signs, tables, other vehicles
