But with spec=1 everything is much more shiny rather than matte, especially zerg buildings and creep are very shiny and I do not like it. I prefer a more matte look. Anybody have any other ideas for settings I should mess with? | ||

When i wanted to leave a custom game with computer I pressed Surrender and it took about 2-3 seconds before i actually left the game. Also there seems to be a lot of situations when the game just freezes for a second or two. My PC: Intel E8400 @ 3.0GHz AMD 4890 1GB (o/c) 4GB ram 7200rpm hdd I never had any problems like that with all settings set to maximum Same issue here. I've been using the settings from the original post before the patch with great success, but post 1.5 and updating the variables.txt I'm getting super long loading times and in-game freezes of up to 3 seconds. | ||

It's ok for me after 4-5 games (first some games I had huge freezes and long loading times too) T.T I had the sickest freezes today, I really hope you can magically come up with a solution, because I would miss your settings a lot. | ||

It worked normally via next 3 parameters: - pixellight - spec - normalmap (this one only makes better quality for shiny effect) Now these parameters can work a bit different in different combinations (like one turned off and other turned on). You can experiment with these 3 parameters | ||

So I tried again, and this time I erased everyithing in the .txt document and then pasted the commands from this thread, saved, and started the game. It's working wonders now. TL;DR Removing all commands before you paste in the new ones fixed the freezing for my game. | ||

TL;DR Removing all commands before you paste in the new ones fixed the freezing for my game. I just wanted to ask wether the hybrid variables are meant to be added to the others in the file or to replace them. Could OP clarify please? I just got a new computer and so I'm free to choose my settings, but I'm used to playing on low and find high/ultra distracting. So this providing a reasonable middle ground looks very interesting. | ||
