Most Koreans play on High/Ultra and are better than 99.9% of the world - it fucking doesn't make a difference! Some of us don't have i7/i5s, I can't get playable frame rates on medium shaders and higher. | ||

The majority of pro gamers play on medium/low graphic to be used to it, because if they move to a lan and the computer is pretty shitty but they are used to fancy graphics, they will have 15 fps. | ||

Чthats why I did those hybridic settings. They dont take much fos and they're still clean and less distracts like high or standart medium settings. Most players play on low or medium because they dont know about variables.txt editing, its easier for them to go to options and do one click with changing everything to low, not looking at worse sides of low settings, like unvisible force fields, less noticeable zerg units on dark maps or no unit model for warpins for protoss, or the ugly brick creep spread animation that is similar to sc1 or wc3 undead creep. In sc2 creep spreads very nicely and smoothly, and it's nicer from aesthetics side. Sc2 on low settings looks more worse than sc1, because in sc1 you had sharper textures (in sc2 they are smooth like in wow or wc3, maube more smooth), sharper shadows under units, nicer animation. My hybridic settings at same time are very similar to sc1 graphic with SOME small animation and some graphic. And it's still clean and readable for players like sc1. | ||

If you can point out the variable (or that there isn't one) I would appreciate it a lot. | ||

I actually cancelt a half way done mothership because I thought it was a probe and wanted to start the mothership immidiatly :/ Otherwise I love these settings Are you sure? I thought these settings were supposed to have all the fancy effects of High+, applied to Low models. I can even see the difference on Low settings between Mothership and Probe so I am surprised by this. I'll try it =) | ||

Maybe it's something with my hardware but if not it would be nice if that could be fixed (preferably without changing anything else^^). | ||

I also didn't see the effect around the top of the Nexus with these Hybrid settings either >_> For reference to people who might want to figure out how to restore the effect, we are talking about this (Low settings): ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/pLTA9.jpg) | ||

Actually if you stream you need a pretty beefy computer to stream @ 720p+ 60FPS as well as having 60FPS with High or Ultra settings. Even for my computer which is pretty good, I have to turn it down to mediumish. I7 3.2GHZ w/ Nvidia 470. | ||

On Medium settings, the box that you make ( when you box workers, units etc ... ) is not very transparent and is pretty full coloured, but when switching to High and Ultra, the box becomes very transparent and i find it a little hard to see on some maps, especially those with a light colour palette. I got the computer to run on Ultra, but i hate the boxing transparency. Small gripe i know, but i figured i might as well ask. Can provide a screeny of what i mean if needed ^_^ EDIT: spelling | ||
