7. Technical Environment and System Requirements

The Game is designed to operate exclusively on compatible personal computer hardware that meets or exceeds the minimum and recommended system requirements published i.a. on the Steam product page. These requirements form an integral part of this EULA and must be reviewed and understood prior to downloading, installing, or using the Game. The graphics quality in the Game may differ depending on your settings or hardware capabilities. Raving Bots does not guarantee compatibility with hardware, operating systems, or drivers that fall outside these specifications or that are modified beyond standard configurations.7.2. You are solely responsible for maintaining a secure and functional environment for running the Game. This includes ensuring that antivirus software, system Updates, drivers, firmware, and other software components installed on your device do not conflict with or impair the Game’s operation.

7.3. Raving Bots reserves the right to update technical requirements where necessary due to evolving operating system support, graphics driver changes, or hardware deprecations. Such modifications shall not obligate Raving Bots to ensure backward compatibility with outdated hardware or legacy environments.

8.1. Raving Bots may from time to time develop and release Updates to the Game. Raving Bots will decide on the content and timing of Updates, taking into account the nature of the Game and technical feasibility.

We do not guarantee that every feature or functionality will remain available unchanged over time.

Raving Bots shall not be liable for damages resulting from refusal or inability to install Updates.
8.4. You acknowledge that Updates may require additional system resources, including but not limited to increased disk space, memory, processor requirements, or driver compatibility.

8.5. Updates are made available through the same distribution channel through which you downloaded the Game and are provided at no additional charge but without warranty or obligation. We do not promise continued development or long-term support of the Game, and the availability of an Update does not by itself create an obligation to provide future Updates or to add new features.
8.6. Nothing in this section limits any mandatory rights you may have under applicable consumer law.

11.7. Raving Bots may discontinue making the Game available or providing Updates where reasonably necessary (e.g. legal, regulatory, security, or technical reasons). Where required by law, we will provide prior notice. This does not affect any mandatory consumer rights.
12. External Accessories and Third-Party Hardware
12.1. The Game may allow or support the use of external third-party accessories or hardware devices (including but not limited to steering wheels, controllers, pedals, motion sensors, motion platforms, motion system controllers, VR equipment, and similar peripherals). Such accessories or hardware devices are not provided, manufactured, or endorsed by Raving Bots. Raving Bots does not warrant that any specific third-party accessory or hardware devices will be compatible with the Game or will function without errors. Compatibility with such devices may depend on third-party drivers, software, or communication protocols that are outside Raving Bots’ control. The Game does not provide access to any assistance systems. . The use of VR or other external devices is optional and may be subject to limitations or technical issues beyond Raving Bots’ control.12.2. Where the Game communicates with a motion platform or other motion system, the Game may transmit vehicle telemetry or other approximate force-related signals for compatibility purposes only. Although the Game aims to generate realistic data, such data may from time to time be unexpected, amplified, erroneous, incomplete, delayed, or otherwise unsafe, and may be incorrectly interpreted, converted, or reproduced by the connected hardware or its controller. This may result in sudden, violent, erratic, or otherwise dangerous movement of the connected equipment.
12.3. You are responsible for ensuring that any accessories or hardware devices you use are installed, configured, and operated in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, safety guidelines, and operational recommendations. In the case of any motion platform or motion system, the controller of such system must independently filter, limit, and eliminate unsafe signals received from the Game, and the system must be equipped with effective internal safety mechanisms, which must remain active at all times during setup, calibration, and gameplay. Any testing, setup, or calibration of a motion platform or motion system for use with the Game must be carried out by a qualified professional, where applicable, or otherwise in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and safety procedures. Raving Bots does not provide technical support for third-party accessories or hardware devices.
12.4. Use of third-party accessories or hardware devices may involve risks, including but not limited to physical injury, equipment malfunction, or property damage. You should use such accessories or hardware devices safely, take breaks when needed, and stop use if you experience adverse symptoms.
12.5. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Raving Bots will not be liable for any injury, damage, loss, or harm (whether to person or property) arising out of or relating to your use, misuse, installation, or operation of any third-party accessories or hardware devices in connection with the Game. This includes any injuries occurring during gameplay while using such devices in particular where such injury, damage, loss, or harm results from the movement, malfunction, misconfiguration, signal processing, signal conversion, or insufficient safety protections of any motion platform or motion system connected to the Game, including cases where such hardware reacts to telemetry or other data generated by the Game in an unexpected or unsafe manner.
13. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
13.1. This EULA, its formation, interpretation, performance, and any disputes arising out of or in connection with it shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the laws of Poland, without giving effect to any principles relating to conflict of laws or international private law that would result in the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.13.2. If you are a consumer residing in the European Union, you may additionally benefit from mandatory statutory protections within your Member State of residence, as required by applicable EU consumer protection law. No provision of this EULA is intended to limit such rights, and where a provision would conflict with mandatory consumer law of your country of residence, that provision shall be interpreted in the manner most consistent with such mandatory protections.
13.3. Nothing in this EULA shall restrict Raving Bots from seeking provisional or injunctive measures in any jurisdiction where such relief is necessary to protect its intellectual property or other legal rights.
13.4. This EULA does not invoke or incorporate the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG), and that convention is expressly excluded from application.
13.5. Raving Bots encourages you to contact its support team to resolve any issues, questions, or concerns related to the Game before initiating any formal dispute proceedings. In case of defects or non-compliance of the Game please contact Raving Bots at contact@ravingbots.com. If you have a dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or related to this EULA or your use of the Game (hereinafter: “Dispute”), and informal resolution has not succeeded within thirty (30) days after the first communication of the issue, then the following rules apply:
Users Residing in the European Union
13.6. If you are a consumer habitually residing in the European Union, you may submit your Dispute to a competent out‑of‑court dispute resolution body certified in your Member State. You may also choose to use any applicable online dispute resolution platform provided under EU law. These options are intended to facilitate faster and more accessible resolution of consumer disputes.13.7. Regardless of participation in such mechanisms, you retain the right to bring claims in the courts of your country of residence or Poland.
13.8. These options exist in parallel, and nothing in this EULA limits your right to access mandatory consumer adjudication mechanisms.
Users Outside the European Union
13.9. If you are not a consumer subject to EU law, any Dispute shall be submitted exclusively to the competent courts located in Poland. This provision does not affect any mandatory jurisdiction rights available to consumers under applicable law.13.10. You agree that, subject to any mandatory consumer protection laws, the courts of Poland shall have jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or in connection with this EULA. Nothing in this provision limits any rights you may have to bring proceedings before the courts of your country of residence where such rights are granted under applicable consumer law.
14. Changes to the EULA
14.1. Raving Bots may from time to time amend, revise, update, or replace this EULA where reasonably necessary to reflect changes in law, technical requirements, Game Updates, new functionalities, consumer protection obligations, or business considerations.14.2. Raving Bots will provide notice of changes, in particular by publishing the updated EULA on the Game’s Steam product page or on its official website. Raving Bots shall not be obligated to provide individualized notice, unless mandatory law requires it. The updated EULA shall supersede all prior versions upon publication.
14.3. Continued use of the Game after such Updates have been published constitutes your acceptance of the revised EULA, unless mandatory law requires acceptance. If you do not agree to the amended terms, you must discontinue use of the Game and uninstall all copies.
15. Severability and Entire Agreement
15.1. If any provision of this EULA is determined by a competent authority to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severed from this EULA, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. Where possible, the invalid provision shall be replaced with a lawful one that most closely achieves the commercial, legal, and functional intent of the original clause.15.2. This EULA constitutes the entire agreement between you and Raving Bots relating to the Game and supersedes all prior written or oral agreements, representations, understandings, or communications concerning the Game or the License. No additional statements, promotional materials, or communications shall be construed as modifying or supplementing this EULA.
