Try turning Blood level and Detail and any other big numbers (besides Screen height and Screenwidth) down. If that doesn't work, contact David. turning down screensize could screw up play altogether.

Also, turn on VBl sync. It should theoretically make performance better (message for everyone).

VBL (vertical blanking line) sync may actually make it slower; you may be thinking of VBO (vertex buffer objects). VBL synchronization basically caps your fps at a factor of the monitor refresh rate to prevent "tearing" (displaying the display buffer while it is between frames). VBL sync will make it appear smoother if you have a higher fps than your refresh rate, but otherwise it may make it run slower.

yea, i tried using simpletext and it still didn't work. when i try and open the game it opens with some of the music, and the red screen and then it quits. should i just download it again and use the same registration code to get my full version back? or does anyone else have any suggestions before i have to start all over again?

You can re-install and use your same serial number.
