Actually, that's a really good point. If we do end up having to move away from b.net onto private servers/shield battery, whats the point of using remastered over the original client? SD graphics are just fine in 1.16.1 and the new graphics do have some flaws (worse visibility, all graphics being slightly off centered etc.). We know how to get 1.16.1 to run just fine on Windows 10, so even that advantage of remastered is null and void. | ||

perfect would be that you can use them with full screen also since that's allowed with the new graphics, but need to render them properly. if nobody can full screen then w/e i guess. I mean theres an issue anyway due to the bottom UI being drawn in 4:3 lul but anyway need proper render t_t i've been having some fun playing 3v3s 4v4s with friends lately, nice that you can pick colors now however honestly there are a few colors that look way too close to each other so that's kinda dumb, can barely tell the difference between gray and black zeals or tan and white and a few others even on minimap that's kinda dumb. I mean the original game doesn't have that issue. I think that may be made worse by the new graphics actually idk cause then it wouldn't be an issue on minimap also hey it's something ICCup has always missed is that it was only counting ladder games but you couldn't play like 3v3s and get stats for it that was missing you know : D i love to play 3v3 with some mix of premade vs whoever and it's just nice to get a stat count for it everyone likes that i think | ||

This is doubly true because you not only don't want to estrange the people who grew used to RM graphics, but also because RM is free and legal to DL from Blizzard while 1.16 is abandonware for years at this point. Expecting people to have 1.16 is essentially shutting the door on legal and accessible options for new players, which is always bad. Add this to the fact that many viewers/casuals imaginable prefer RM graphics, I believe that RM is the only choice for SB and y'all are wasting your time discussing 1.16 in this context. | ||

Yep, 100% this. Fixing how Remastered renders SD graphics is on my planned roadmap, definitely not the highest priority thing though. | ||

If your vertical screen resolution is 1440 or higher, I believe 2560 * 1440 will also work fine. | ||

however i can confirm even using my old CRT on remaster it still wasn't drawing the SD graphics properly (that CRT was running the 640*480 like all CRT can do) i mean have you tried wimpwimpwimp? cause it doesn't work here, SC:R switches to its own resolution which you can't pick, if I set my screen to 1280*1024 i get my input lag and lower refresh rate on desktop, run SC:R the resolution switches for it and the SD graphics are drawn badly as always besides you want to be able to pick that resolution from within the game so it starts it up automatically and not switch your desktop resolution every time you run the game | ||

No changes to your resolution are gonna fix that. Yep, him and me paid 15 € for that dogshit, or for worse graphics than before. | ||

Really seems like a very minor loss of quality but maybe it is due to my setup(s). Nah i dont notice it every day to, its just upsetting to have paid for that downgrade as a matter of principle. | ||
