It actually does make a difference. Im not sure why you think koreans play on high settings cause they dont. If you tune into any stream they play on low/medium.


No.

Some of us don't have i7/i5s, I can't get playable frame rates on medium shaders and higher.

Actually it's not true. 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.

Gonna try this out now thanks! I hate the glowing effect on the zerg creep/buildings.

Works like a charm thanks for an easy fix to a ugly low settings!

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.

I'm just wondering if there is a way to add just the animated effect to the creep? I really love these settings but I would love to see how they look with the creep animated as well.

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

Umm, you can't see a difference in the nexus build animation wether there is a mothership building or a probe. Can definitly influence how the game plays out. 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 =)

I was very confused as well, but I played on Low before and there I could clearly tell the difference. Maybe it's something with my hardware but if not it would be nice if that could be fixed (preferably without changing anything else^^).

Seems you are right. 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):

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.

Ok so riddle me this you graphics whizzes, as i can't find for shit how to adjust this.
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

I might test this to see how it looks. My computer is a beast (Core i5 @ 4.4Ghz and GTX670), so I don't need it, but it might be good for a laptop.

I apologize if this has already been answered, but adding these settings causes my in-game cam to lock-on to whatever unit I have selected. How can I remove this option?

Hybridic settings will be updated (and probably refreshed and fixed) with 1.5.0 settings somewhere around 4-5th August
