Recluse, thank you for the timely reply.
I looked thru the CA.ini file , but didn't see any mention about the "cussing". Can't use special features until someone reveals the proper commands. I am going to try the video tweaks in the ini files first, then I will patch the game and probably use the DGVooDoo wrapper. If the wrapper fails, I can fall back to the D3D patch.
I'll report back on the progress.
