First of all: These graphics are really beautiful.

I love them so much and was playing with them without a problem for the past week and a half. Yesterday I upgraded my CPU and Memory and formatted my computer. After re-installing Starcraft I found that my terrain is now black. I have tried the fixes but when I remove lighting=0 the shiny effect obviously come back. I am confused why it would have worked before and what could have changed. Is there another work around to get the reduced shininess without using lighting=0?

Use low shaders or medium (or higher) with lighting=0

There were other ways to turn off shiny effect, but they were turned off with patch 1.5.0 and/or patch 2.0.0

Is there another way to get lighting=0 to work without the black terrian effect?

Edit: Nvm I am completely awful at using a computer. Cleared the wrong cache. Sorry for wasting your time. My game looks beautiful now

Glad it works now Sometimes repeating cache clearing helps too. Just do it 2-3 times.

Found another top-player/streamer with Hybrid settings - Nathanias. Streaming right now

It looks great! Thanks a ton... I was tired of lowest everything but sometimes medium slows me down.

Can u also use these settings with effects on low?
Because even with a 3.6Ghz Ivy I5 the Fps drops below 30
in a 140 army supply Ling Baneling vs Marine fight.
I like Zerglings... and Banelings... and also Roaches... well, i like ZERG

Yea, Effects on low is not a problem. You lose the ability to know when a moco vs probe is building but aside from that you're fine.

That sounds like you are bottlecapped by cpu and so changing graphics won't change your fps.

Try this: Clear cache from ProgramData / BlizzardEntertainment / StarCraft II (this folder might be hidden, google how to show hidden folders)
Also, install latest video drivers from manufacturer's website.
It helped me.

What wishr said:

This is usually what solves the problem. Sometimes you have to do it multiple times (no idea why, but it usually works).
