    44* sound settings value should probably be remapped to a 0-10 (or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_to_eleven 11] for some fun :) scale both in options menu and all config files; the engine should then remap this values to its internal values (it may be that current values already have meaning in the scale 0-10? or are percentage with a maximum of 1.0 as their initial value between 0.2 and 0.9 suggests?);
    55* sound settings should eventually use a slider or a combo box rather than text field (currently it is not clear what is the range);
     6* some options as such Graphics Quality and Windowed Mode could support on the fly change without restart.

    910Finally some options are only effective if other are already enabled. E.g. "Shadow filtering" is effective only if "Shadows" is already enabled. Eventually those options should be "greyed out" or only appears if the required option is not set. But probably this is not so useful and also requires some more logic to make sure everything works OK even when manually editing options in the config files.
