I used dgVoodoo & ReShade.Now BW supports 1080P and owns customized graphic effects.

This one only used dgVoodo.
[image loading]

This one added ReShade effects,AdaptiveSharpen+Colourfulness,you can compare it with above.(The border is made by myself)
[image loading]

Next three used AdaptiveSharpen+Colourfulness+CA for my BW mod.

I am trying to make a little BW enhanced mod named "StarCraft Caprice",here are some features I thought:
1. graphic HD enhancement
2. music quality enhancement (use BW remaster music in SC2)
3. some bugs and glitches fix (icon,sound,etc)
4. slight game balance change

So, what do you think?

Bottom three are a little oversatured imo but that can be fixed in-game and is more of a personal preference. Can I get a DL link? This is awesome, I'd love to contribute to this.

But as for balance, I think that should be left untouched. That's the one thing nobody ever wants touched.

Not entirely true. But it is true that of the ppl who want even slight balance changes, they can never seem to agree on what those should be.

So, Blizzard would have to make any of those type of changes.

The last time Blizzard made balance changes based on the meta or player feedback it killed SC2.

Anything starcraft related, I like... so there's somewhat of a bias. This though, I likey. I would try to gear more towards sharpness of graphics versus color enhancement, in my opinion(if that's possible(is that possible(triple parenthesis))).

I don't think color enhancements are useful. Default color settings in BW are easy on the eyes. Sure, some people might like brighter colors, but that's it.

Perhaps if you added a way for people with bad eyesight to change color settings, that would be useful to some players.

I like this, I think it should have a settings file where you can turn each of these off and on however you want.
Note, I have no idea if that's actually feasible, as I haven't programmed for BW specifically before (nor do I plan to in the future)

As others pointed out, colors are too saturated.

I like what you did to the edges. But the colors, I have to be honest and say that the originals are more comfortable to my eyes.

edit: except the minerals, they look even more precious now :3

Whoever says he wants balance changes, is clueless. I might have argued to buff some units like ghost or scouts myself, but I would never actually want any changes at all. Yes there are some units that are under-used like the scout, ghost, queen, infested terran, but I'd rather have perfect balance than force units into the game.

I've never cared for Reshade or similar software, increasing contrast and saturation seldom make games look any better, many times it feels like you're actually loosing image information.

It's only really good for removing piss filters etc. from games that have it, but a game like SC is colorful enough as it is with its neutral color palate.

I like how sharp they are rendered but the color looks like you're viewing it on an old CRT monitor with color problems.

ehh when i think about balance i dont think of making the less units used more automatically, in fact that might just be bad, if i want balance for bw it should be about more core things than getting underused units being used more..

If scout got used more(lets say ground attack higher), it would probably remove the gameplay ALOT.

Pretty dope. Make sure you enable users to pick their own images and it will be very popular. Oh, and the higher contrast is appealing to me as well, but it's hard to tell without testing that it wouldn't just make us turn contrast down on monitor eventually etc. Bright colors can hurt eyes However, with that being said, again, I personally think it looks pretty cool atm.

If I had to change something, I'd buff Dark Archons, Queens and Ghosts a bit, soo that they saw SOME competative play. Those units might as well not exist in the competative sense.

Increase starting energy of all those units by 50. Increase Ghosts HP by a bit, don't see this having a negative impact on the game, worst case scenario Queens become legit option in lategame PvZ

I kinda like Scout doing shit damage versus ground units it already does insane damage versus air, how about we gave scouts insane damage versus buildings, but have them be just as shit versus ground troops, maybe they'd end up useful in a PvZ, and you'd add in a scout to snipe spores
