Before by just changing everything to low and shaders to medium then proceeding to edit the Variables.txt shadows=0 shadowquality=0 it would use blob shadows but with the medium shaders. With this new patch, it isn't possible for me and I've tried a few combinations. I just noticed that shadows=0 always resets back to 1 which it didn't before patch. Anyway around this? Does anyone know how to use medium shaders with blob shadows while everything else is on low with the latest patch? Thank you

I couldn't do blob shadows with this patch but I could get rid of the shadows altogether. Although, I'd rather just play with the medium real-time shadows.

there was something about that in the patch where the client will reset any variables which would result in sub optimal settings. I think i read that somewhere.

Have you tried setting the file to read only after saving it?

Yeah, I tried that. Hopefully someone has a solution.

Can't believe this doesn't work anymore after 1.5.2.
