</>What does Low Graphics Mode do?
Worst Class Ever's lowest graphics preset still asks a lot of an older laptop or a PC with integrated graphics. Low Graphics Mode goes below it with three settings you control from the launcher. Render Scale draws the 3D view at 25 to 100 percent of your screen resolution and stretches it to fill the screen. At the default 70 the graphics card draws about half the pixels. The HUD and menus get softer with it at low values. Simpler Shadows draws shadows with blockier edges and only out to 30 m, the same distance as the game's own Low shadow setting. It never switches shadows off, so dark rooms and hiding spots stay as dark as they are for everyone else. Texture Quality shrinks textures to half or a quarter of their width and height to save video memory. If the game's own texture setting is already lower, it stays. Everything sits on top of your own graphics settings. The mod never writes to them, so nothing is saved, and switching it off puts every value back. Change the game's graphics menu any time and the mod applies itself again on top. It only changes your own screen, so it works in any room and other players see no difference.
</>What is Low Graphics Mode?
Turn on Low Graphics Enabled, pick a Render Scale between 25 and 100 percent in steps of 5, keep Simpler Shadows on for blockier shadows that stop at 30 m, and choose Full, Half or Quarter textures. Your choices in the game's own graphics menu stay as you set them, and shadows, darkness and lights stay in place on your screen.
</>Common questions about Low Graphics Mode
What does Low Graphics Mode do in Worst Class Ever?
Low Graphics Mode lowers how much Worst Class Ever asks of your graphics card, on top of the settings you already picked in the game's menu. Render Scale draws the 3D view with fewer pixels, Simpler Shadows makes shadows blockier and stops them at 30 m, and Texture Quality shrinks textures to save video memory. It is meant for older laptops and PCs with integrated graphics that still struggle on the game's Low preset.
Does it change or save my graphics settings?
The mod never writes to the game's graphics settings or to where the game stores them, so nothing it does is saved. While it runs it keeps the game's own values in memory and restores exactly those when you switch it off or close the mod, and the next time you start the game it opens with your own settings.
Does it remove shadows or darkness?
Simpler Shadows never switches shadows off: it only makes their edges blockier and stops them at 30 m, the game's own Low shadow distance. Lights, darkness and the game's screen effects stay as the game draws them, so dark rooms and the spots students hide in stay just as dark on your screen as on everyone else's.
Can I use it in public rooms?
Low Graphics Mode works in every room, public or private, as host or guest. It only changes the picture on your own screen and sends nothing over the network, so the match and what everyone else sees stay exactly the same.
Why does the HUD look softer?
The game draws its HUD and menus through the same camera as the 3D view, so a lower Render Scale softens the text along with the classroom. If the HUD gets hard to read, raise Render Scale in steps of 5 until it is sharp enough, and keep Simpler Shadows and Texture Quality on for the rest of the savings.
What if I change the game's graphics settings while it's on?
You can change the game's graphics menu at any time, including its quality preset and its shadow and texture settings. The game applies your new choice first and the mod applies itself on top straight after, starting from the values you just picked, so there is nothing to switch off and on again. It only ever lowers things: if the game's own texture setting is already at a quarter, or its shadows already stop at 30 m, the game's setting stays as it is. The game's menu has no render scale of its own, so the mod's Render Scale slider is the only one.
What options does Low Graphics Mode include?
Low Graphics Enabled
Turns on a lighter picture for slow PCs: the render scale, shadows and textures set below. It goes on top of your own graphics settings and never changes or saves them. Off puts every value back the way your settings have it.
Render Scale
Draws the 3D view at this percent of your screen resolution and stretches it to fill the screen, so the graphics card has far less to draw. 100 is full resolution; 70 draws about half the pixels. The HUD and menus soften with it at low values.
Simpler Shadows
Draws shadows with blockier edges and only out to 30 m, the distance the game's own Low shadow setting uses, which saves the graphics card work. Shadows are never switched off, so dark corners and hiding spots stay as dark as before. Off leaves shadows the way your graphics settings draw them.
Texture Quality
Shrinks the game's textures to half or a quarter of their width and height, which saves video memory. If the game's own texture setting is already lower, that stays. Full leaves textures the way the game has them.
Low Graphics Mode is a ProjectMods mod for Worst Class Ever that goes below the game's Low preset: a render scale from 25 to 100 percent, simpler shadows and half or quarter-size textures, on top of your own settings and without saving them.
System Requirements
What features does Low Graphics Mode include?
- Render Scale draws the 3D view at 25 to 100 percent of your screen resolution; at the default 70 the graphics card draws about half the pixels.
- Simpler Shadows draws shadows with blockier edges and stops them at 30 m, the game's own Low shadow distance.
- Shadows are never switched off, and darkness, lights and the game's screen effects stay untouched, so dark rooms stay dark.
- Texture Quality shrinks textures to half or a quarter of their width and height to save video memory, and never raises the game's own setting.
- Never writes to the game's graphics settings or to where the game stores them, so a restart opens with your own choices.
- Stays on across the main menu, the hallway and every classroom without you touching it again.
Best For
- Your laptop's integrated graphics stutters even on the game's Low preset, so you switch on Low Graphics Enabled and drop Render Scale to 60.
- Your graphics card has little video memory, so you set Texture Quality to Quarter and keep Render Scale higher for a sharper picture.
- You play on a big monitor at a high resolution and want fewer pixels to draw, so you set Render Scale to 75 and leave textures on Full.
- You want a light picture for playing and a sharp one for screenshots, so you flip Low Graphics Enabled and your own settings come straight back.
- The HUD text looks too soft at 50, so you raise Render Scale in steps of 5 until it reads well and keep the rest of the savings.

Stuck on a pillar or carried off by the teacher? Watch a teammate's game from behind them, pick who you watch with the mouse buttons, or look around the room with a slow free camera.
Self-Rescue Timer
Caught students get loose on their own after 15 to 180 seconds (60 by default) when no teammate has rescued them by then. Host the room privately or over LAN and every student in it gets it, with nothing for guests to install.
