Yeah I have the same problem, seems that Blizzard removed the workaround to the auto-reset of Variables.txt in 1.5.3, the Account/xyz/Variables.txt gets reset too

For now I've just deleted both variables.txt files (to reset all the settings) and am running on standard medium graphics until OP updates his post

I share your pain . Please someone post on US servers that we need better visible forcefields on low settings (shouldn't be that hard to do, just stronger edges) . Thats the only thing what matters for me. Unfortunately I can't post on US Battlenet forums.

sorry if this was already asked, but is there a way to change the settings to be highest or lowest but still have the green selection box setting of medium? What i mean is when you box something in game on lowest or highest it is mostly clear but if you do it on medium there is a distinct green highlight throughout the box

Hey Existor,

Awesome job with this "find" \ "guide"!
Any update on the 1.5.3 version?

Thanks in advance!

I'd like to know about a possible update as well! Even though I already changed everything back to medium settings, it's just obvious that something is missing.

Is there a command that just puts decals for terran buildings and units, without changing anything else? I kind of want to see the decals that I and my opponents have earned, I hope it won't make the game lag that much, but if I change the whole shaders setting, it makes it too laggy and bad to play.

Updated first post. but this time it's a red update.

[image loading]


These settings will not work good with patch 1.5.3 or later.
You can reset your graphics settings by deleting both variables.txt


The explanation of stoped working Hybrid setting is simply and short. Blizzard added settings checker into Accounts/variables too, what means, that now you can't add custom settings into account variables and override some default graphical settings. So for now with patch 1.5.3 (or later) it's not possible to use Hybridic settings anymore. I have no idea how to bring non-shiny effect with hdr and visible force-fields, you can continue experiment with both variables, because some parameters still working (like switching on/off alternate low textures).

Here are closest and similar settings to Hybridic ones. The difference is old shiny effect and higher resolution of shadows, also some other slighty differences like sharper edges of creep.

  • All settings to Low
  • Textures - Medium
  • Shaders - Medium
  • Models - High
  • Terrain - Medium (if you want animated creep)

Models to High makes terran decals visible

Nope... And it really, really sucks. I'd pay a small fee to have low settings with high models, easy to see FF and simplified cloaking turned off.

Ummm - I just did this again because I noticed my SC2 had to patch when I loaded it and one of the patch notes was "brought back altlowtextures" or something like that. Is this just wishful thinking?

Edit - Oh right - also I checked the variables.txt file and the settings have not reverted. Can someone confirm this please?
Now witness their attempts to fly from tree to tree. Notice they do not so much fly as plummet.

How good a graphics card would that set of settings approximately require?
