Basically i achieved thicker better shadows which makes buildings more round and 3d, better color, also i like the way the mini map looks after, easy to see and read. Also the pixels really show in war2, whole point was to soften it up. I mean if someone really fined tuned these effects you could get a killer upgrade on warcraft 2, time is just not of the essence for me atm. Game feels and looks better with softer colors and more cartoon looking.
