You're welcome :)  Hey, have you checked out the Doom3 tweaks at
UpsetChaps?
http://ucguides.savagehelp.com/Doom3/Doom3Guide.htm
They have a lot of useful info there, I figure that adjusting some
settings in Doomconfig.cfg will allow you to run in 1024x768 with a few
things durned down or off, giving up just a little image quality for
faster smoother gameplay.  Especially where there are several moving
characters in a scene.  I've run across a number of speed tweaks there
while looking for lighting and LOD info.
McG.
