I didn't take a pot shot at you. But now you're starting to piss me off by making this about you.

I'll say this once. And hope it sinks in, because I'm tired of you reacting to me like this every time I point out you've got a foot in your mouth.

The world, okay? It don't revolve 'round you. Stop being such a damn pretentious, opinionated, self-centered prima donna and learn to live with the people around you. Nobody here, especially me, now, cares that much about you that they would go to THESE lengths to annoy, insult or otherwise ruffle your sensitive feathers.

For your information, I did read the entire post. You still formulated yourself in such a way that your main walking sprocket was inserted into your oral cavity. Hence my comment that some people feel more strongly about something that you, twice, commented on was not an important aspect of life. Which is fine! I respect your opinion! But I do not respect the way you belittle a man's efforts towards achieving something he loves. In this case, a game. And you did belittle them. If that was not your intention, then it would be enough to say so. But you don't. You go out of your way to make this about how I'm attacking you instead.
Now, if you truly feel about games the way LeStat and myself do, then learn to construct a proper english sentence and convey your opinions in a more easily understood manner. I tell you this so you can avoid feeling like someone took pot shots at you.

Do not feel attacked. The huns are not at the gates. I'm merely telling you that you sometimes speak with two faces, i.e. that you say one thing and later go out of your way to convince people you meant the polar opposite. If that's your way of being sarcastic or ironic, that's fine, but at least when people call you on it, don't write a 5000-word essay on how you're the victim.

On to the main topic, I hope your efforts are progressing, LeStat!

Fine Fred, whatever you say... I'm not gonna continually be drawn in by you, like you do on many occasions... I'm well aware of your thoughts and feelings towards me, you made them quite clear about 10 months ago and have done so ever since in one way or another...

Enjoy Your Game...

See what you did Lestat! You started community war! lol

On a side note, running Grim in XP/Vista was probably not the hardest part... getting the damn hardware acceleration was! I have not fully tried out this solution yet, but Fred, if this enables me to use proper hardware acceleration with the game (so I can get rid of those god awful lo-res characters textures and geometry jaggies), then you my friend are a GOD!

-Cub. =o)

I'm certain the answers lie in the directx settings.

I've noticed that about you, you seem to change your Avatar and Sig quite often... Nothing wrong with Change, Change is usually a good thing... I know about 90% of America is hoping Change is a good thing...

Step 8 (that's EIGHT!) In the Display tab - disable Directdraw Acceleration (which also should disable Direct 3D Acceleration. If not, disable Direct 3D Acceleration)

Step 9) In the Sound tab, reduce the Hardware Sound Acceleration Level from Full Acceleration to Standard Acceleration.
Actually Cub, these steps turn off the acceleration.......
