Effects=2 causes pink FlaK-Puffs and flickering 3D-smoke

Specular=3 has no effect, as there is only 0,1,2 supported to my knowledge, but I'd be glad if you can show me a link that defines the difference.
I don't have such problems, probably you have installed an old or too new driver
-->artifacts on water=4

Since patch 4.03:
2 = this mode corresponds Water = 3, however it runs also on ATI graphics cards with chipsets 9800, X800, X1800 and later models
3 = quick Render mode with vertex shader 3.0
4 = improved display quality with vert Shader 3.0

forests=3: "barely any visual difference" true
effects=2: immense difference in the explosions, very recommendable!
specular=3: the game doesn't alter "specular" 3 to 2 as it is always the case if anyone enters unacceptable values, therefore, there is specular 3
