In any case, there is a common problem with ATI and NVidia cards where it crashes on entry, right after the "Connecting" window pops up. This crash occurs regardless of the API setting. It will eventually clear itself, if you keep trying; or you can accelerate the process by removing the game_options.txt files.

There is still a bug on test as well as on live with the graphic options window. I for one can verify it that some of us have no way to save any change made on this panel. In other words we don't have the continue button to save the change. Though it was reported early on in test nothing was ever done about it.
As for the changes manually I agree, and have been posting that several places. Same path as these other directions, but the game_api file is where pandagl needs to be changed to pandadx9.
As if it is a ati or nvidia card issue, that is a good possibility, though it was never actually stated. In any case these things above should hopefully straighten some of these problems out for people.
