In the Options Window, under the Graphics and Audio tab, the last two seeings in the first section (Graphics) are Advanced Graphics Settings (a toggle that can be Enabled/Disabled) and Graphics Quality (a slider with five options). If you choose one of these five options and then enable Advanced Graphics settings, you can change the settings associated with that set of "defaults". If you at any time disable Advanced Graphics Settings, you will be returned to the defaults for your selection on the Graphics Quality slider- any changes you have made will be lost if you Apply the settings. These are the settings associated with each of those default sets.
For explanations of each of these settings, see the Options Window page, in the "Graphics and Audio Options" section.
Note: As the settings listed under "Ultra Mode Options" are duplicated under "Advanced Graphics Settings", only the latter are listed. No settings other than those revealed by enabling Advanced Graphics Settings are listed, as they are not affected by the slider.
