So maybe with a shorter name for the personality, 8 characters or so, it should work! But if Pro Deo cannot find a proper personality file on that line it is replaced with an older one that is weaker than Pro Deo 1.1 default, it plays a little bit different than the default. I hope you get the Pro Deo engine up and running! Eelco
