No

Wie can't lie about our abilities. It may fix those 3 games, but then  
20 other games will start using the broken functionality and break.

As for a registry key, I don't want this to become a mess-with-the- 
registry-fest. Things should work without requiring custom registry  
keys(or DLL overrides for that matter). This may sound cruel, but  
sometimes keeping things broken is the best way to motivate people to  
fix it.

Unfortunately as you say, this vertex pipeline replacement stuff is a  
quite advanced topic, and D3D is pretty advanced by now so there are  
very few bugs that are an easy job for beginners to fix There are  
certainly no weekend jobs left.
