Great performance increase and several bugs fixed. Would like to see gesturing and unit selection fixed however...
However, brought back thememories of the old golden days of myth without all the bitmap eyesores of myth sb.
As per Ratama, maybe make sure Small.tag isn't missing? My guess is you small installed instead of full installed.

Works fine, though I do not see any evidence of the sprite buffer reduction (maybe my computer doesn't have enough trouble running it to use this feature).

Unofficial indeed. I am now unable to run Myth III. 'Small.tag is missing, please reinstall Myth III'.
