i tried playing with only the lighting=0 tag and it seems to be fine, I will now start going through each line and try to see if I can reproduce it

EDIT: ok, i have no idea what i did wrong, i re-copied everything and am not having any issues anymore but i'm still pretty sure it was something i did to the variables.txt, so if you're an idiot like me, you can cause your computer to freeze (just in case i'm not the only one)

Other lines are just ingame settings. Only lighting=0 parameter differs standard game settings from hybrid ones

@Existor okay I am really sorry I might just be completely retarded but how do I download this LotV hybrid settings? I see a lot of customizability, but what should I put into the variables.txt if I want it to be as close as it was in HotS? In HotS you just "nobrain copy-pasted" big chunk of text but now I am lost T_T >.>

1. Open game settings
2. Set as it says in 1st post
3. Close sc2 game
4. open variables.txt and put code from 1st post to the end of variables.txt

I just played my first game using Hybrid 3.0 and had an issue that (sometimes?) the green circle under selected units was not visible. Any idea what may be the problem?

Try to remove lighting=0 parameter from variables and check green circles in game again.

Thanks, this is great !

Question, is there any variables.txt setting that will disable the stupid noob tooltips ? I hate Blizzard for forcing me to play with these

I tried with gametooltips=1 to 0, but game just resets variable.txt file.

So no, there is no way to disable these tooltips :\

Which one is better if I'm playing a zerg or terran race in terms of visibility?

What do people generally use to make it the easiest to see burrowed and cloaked units?

Creep look was modified and improved on low settings in 3.1.0 patch. Due to that change I removed paragraphs about creep holes and animation.

is there a setting within variables.txt that i could change to keep "show units behind buildings" shader without changing the in-game Shaders setting to medium+ ?

this is the feature that i mean:
[image loading]

it seems i can only get this while setting Shaders to > medium. my pc is as low end as it gets and it doesnt seem to run at its best with medium shaders on.
terrible, terrible, damage

I am using these but I noticed my frames are dropping to 45 fps in battles, despite my CPU and GPU's being no where near 50% usage. Any reason that Hybrid settings could be causing this?

It works just fine for me. However I did notice that on Ruins of Endion it'ss really difficult to spot differences in terrain height with the lighting=0 modifier. Ramps and elevated terran just blends in a bit too easy with the rest.

Yep, seems like the "lighting=0" isn't doing anything with the latest patch.

Hi, quick question, does it work on fullscreen only? whenever i tried in widowed fullscreen just goes to low graphics with some changes, but isn't bright as should be.
Luck is the last dying wish of those who wanna believe that winning can happen by accident, sweat on the other hand is for those who know its a choice
