|gameinfo          = As cars became more and more common on city streets, the Trotmobile came into being. This two-legged, walking metal vehicle could be adapted to a variety of road conditions and purposes: agriculture, civil engineering, and transportation. The industrial revolution continued, increasing the Trotmobile's popularity. People placed their hopes and dreams on the backs of these wonderful machines, marching toward a better life just beyond their reach. Vanilla Beans wakes up to find himself lying on a sun-drenched beach. How did he get there? And, who in the world is the girl standing above him? The girl soon introduces herself as Connie, and Vanilla begins the first busy day of a grand adventure. He'll take Connie home, meet the other members of her band (the Garland Globetrotters), and explore the town of Nefroburg. At the end of this busy day, Vanilla relaxes in the town square where the Globetrotters are performing only to witness a gang of bandits overrunning the town! How things go from here is up to the player. Will Vanilla join the Garland Globetrotters? Or, will he join the Killer Elephant gang? The choices Vanilla makes, the Trotmobiles he builds, and the friends hekeeps are all up to gamers who take part in Steambot Chronicles.

|Comments=Steambot Chronicles is a very CPU-Intensive game, it runs at full speed in HW Mode for me with OpenGL. CRC Hack - Agressive. But it will display glitches and overall missing effects. Something that doesn't happen in Software Mode. So I run it in Software Mode, these are the settings I use to get it to a steady 60FPS. AVX2 Plugin must be set, it gives 1-2 extra frames. Opengl Software Mode (It doesn't really change while using DirectX so it's up to you. Rendering Threads 6 - Yes it must be 6. Or test it out for yourself, see if you get more frames, I tested 2,3,4,5 and 6 and I got a steady with 6. MTVU on or off it doesn't matter, you will get the same fps. I know the CPU is up there, so keep in mind you might not get a steady, however using these settings should help you gain more in Software Mode.
