I tried changing everything but couldn't notice a difference in fps from normal low to the changed variable.txt both we're around 240-250 frames. Well, I think everything above 100 fps is not really noticable anymore. | ||

With the new patch, I'm starting games at 40-50 fps and never going below 20 even in the endgame. I have no idea what was changed by the patch but it got a lot more out of my comp. I didn't change any graphics settings myself by the way. | ||

Not changing this to enGB would give you a language pack error as you tried to play unless you are on a US version of the game. To answer your question: Yes it would be enough to change enUS to enGB to make boomudead's settings work on an English EU client. | ||

I really dislike what this does to cloaked units and the FPS gain didn't seem that overwhelming to me. yeah i know. this is the only problem too and it sucks.hard to see cloak units unless theyre attacking. i have to always put up 1 turrets in TvP incase of dt. banshee are easy to detect tho once u get use to it. however the setting helps a lot in TvZ when roaches/infestors burrow move u can easily see the ground mark and spot them. the problem is that the ground is too simple and so u cant see the blurred from cloaked units unless theyre atacking. | ||

Im experimenting with variables.txt to see if I can get an FPS boost, one thing I've noticed with low textures is creep becomes very vague, is there any way to make the edges harder? u can change terraintexturesize from what i had was 6. change it to 8. makes creep edge sharper. or even 10 if u want. i had it at 6 cuz i can still see creep and with better fps than 10 or higher. | ||
