The sound lose problem occured for me too, but I don't use Hybrid settings. Seems something on game side.

I fixed that by restarting the game and toggling 2-5 times sound on/off

I tried these settings and then removed them by replacing the modified file with a back-up of the original, and also putting everything back to ultra. Unfortunately, my log on screen is still purple. Is that normal? It seems like trying the settings messed something else up.

I may have to do a clean install to fix it. I highly recommend that people don't try these settings unless they are ready to spend a bunch of time troubleshooting bugs.

Not need to use clean reinstall. Just use repair and reset settings option in Battle.Net app

I just see the blades and hair of zealots when using these settings. Their bodys are invisible. Colossi are invisible too. Zerg is completely invisible (buildings and units are just shadows). Anyone got an idea how to fix thsi?

Now that the new patch is around the corner. Does anyone have a working version of the hybrid settings with the stronger team colours mod? When I use my variables.txt on the ptr server, everything is bright pink.

New patch seems to have broken it for me, the majority of the map textures are black. Any fix?

new patch is absolutely going to break stuff. I have so many projects going right now its going to have to be an effort from Existor primarily to get hybrid graphics up and running again.

I guess low will have to do for now, It feels really awkward to box stuff though ;_;
Hopefully the blizzcon stuff works out.

New patch and this seasons maps definitely broke Hybrid 2.0. The ground on a lot of maps is pitch black.

To everyone experiencing the issue with the new patch, just use the repair options again as per the original post:

The best solution to solve FPS problems and pink/black terrain is to do following steps:

Remove lighting=0 from your variables.txt
Clear cache from ProgramData / BlizzardEntertainment / StarCraft II (this folder might be hidden, google how to show hidden folders)
Turn everything in game settings to Low. Close the game.
Turn everything in game settings to Ultra. Close the game.
Turn everything in game settings to Low again. Close the game.
Make "Scan and Repair" in Battle.Net launcher (under SC2 logo Options > Scan and Repair)
Copypast Hybrid options to the end of your variables.txt
Launch the Preloader map (you may find it in the Arcade)


Works perfectly for me after doing this.

Same here, after patching using hybrid 2.0 i won't see the ground's texture, it will only be black. Still can see rocks, plants, gases and other effects, just the ground's texture is plain black.

Did you delete your cache? According to Blizzard they created their own shaders for us which could be what is causing the problem: http://eu.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/12194759375?page=1#1

Hey guys. I'll take a look closer into such problems and do some explorations/tests with it these weekends. Don't have time right now.

Also would be great of you will help me with exploring how it looks now, probably some of you will be interested in manually trying to fix Hybrid settings for yourself. SO share any of your explorations in this area and post here.
