PREFDRIVER = ""
PREFMODENAME = ""

Just replace these two with the ones in the Neocron.ini of your current normal Neocron installation. I'd provide you with mine, but it'd probably mess up since it's using the Dutch names for the generic driver, and not the English one.

Edit: They should be the third and fourth lines (In your normal Neocron installation), replace the two directly below "//Grafik Optionen" with those (In the demo installation).

Just a thought wouldn't this be cool if plaza looked like that when BDOY comes out like say you get it and say the people who log on during the first 24 hours of it being loaded up play through the war say TG and DOY forces break through into neocron and have bombed plaza and are attempting to take over neocron and you log on and there are no safe zones but the city is in ruins and copbots and stormbots are fighting tg and doy forces i can imagine that.
