Metro Last Light Character Graphics Glitch Fix Intel HD 3000

For those of you who have glitchy looking characters on Metro Last Light, here is a fix. There aren't many posts on the internet about this but this fixes it.
Detailed solution:
1. Open up 'Run' by pressing windows key+R
2. type C:\users\your name\appdata\local\4a games\metro LL
3. open up the folder consisting of a bunch of numbers and letters
4. open 'users' file
5. change r_api 1(or 2) to r_api 0
6. save changes and set file to 'read only'. Hit apply
Hope this helps. Comment if it doesn't

    Saw someone who said this is because DX. With Redux this happened to me and the only way to solve was upgrade the graphics to run with DX11.

    Now, finaly, AFTER trying out both Redux versions which have bug on intel hd which makes the game unplayable, and 2033 which won't even start, this works. I get this spiky characters, i find this video, and poof, i still have other problem. Do you have any idea if something resolution related changes after switching to dx9, like refresh rate... does it switch from 60 to 140mhz or something like that, cuz my monitor is ancient and supports up to 800x600 60Mhz and it won't run res properly after switching to dx9. I put resolution on 800x600 in ini file and put it on read only, and double checked, by switching back to r_api 1 it works, the resolution, so it's that setting that breaks it. Any suggestions?

    +TomahawkeTimothy (Tomahawke) 2033 Redux has Better lighting/textures/models (better graphics), , mask wiping feauture that was only in last light, I don't think you have the timed things for how long you can use the mask anymore, more opened areas that were previously ends in the original, and the spartan difficulty, which gives you decent ammo and items to make it feel more like a run and gun like last light did. DEFINATELY a better choice. I don't think I've ever seen this much effort go into a re release before.
