Is there a way to manually set the graphic options. They seem to be saved in a video.scr-file. Does anybody know how to open these files? I'd like to disable shadows and post-processing.
Thanks in advance
I forgot...
www.tweakguides.com/COJ_8.html tells u the procedure for coj1 but I can't open the file.

Yep. Sure thing:
Assuming XP (vista in similar though), the location of the file is:
~drive~:\Documents and Settings\~username~\My Documents\Call of Juarez - Bound in Blood\Out\Settings\
The file is .scr, and this is the same extension windows uses for it's screensaver filetypes. It handles them in a certain way, and you won't get an 'Open' option; just options like 'Test', 'Install' etc.
So to open it, you can either install a better text editor than notepad/wordpad; so something like Ultraedit or Editplus would be good. These will give you an edit option in the right-click menu.
Alternatively, you can open up notepad or wordpad first and then drag and drop the file into that window. That will force it to open in there. Then you will see the various graphics options. The game even comments the bits for you! Make the changes then save, just as above.
Hope that get's you going. I believe you can edit all those options from in-game though once logged into your player profile

i figured it out. but i still can't disable shadows, only set them to low.
In which case you probably can't then. It's obviously an integral part of the game
