All right, I have extended them with the software renderer verisons of 
the same shots (*_SWR.jpg).
Here are it's settings (a bit tweaked by me):

[SoftDrv.SoftwareRenderDevice]
Translucency=True
VolumetricLighting=True
ShinySurfaces=True
Coronas=True
HighDetailActors=True
HighResTextureSmooth=True
LowResTextureSmooth=True
FastTranslucency=False
DetailTextures=True


So, as an alternative, you can still write a software renderer instead 
of using D3D or OGL at all. Good luck :)
(BTW, who sais that UT doesn't have a decent software renderer? - It 
makes 20 FPS at least...)
(Celeron 433 running at 540 MHz, 256 MB RAM, GeForce2 MX400 32MB)

Have fun!
