Ingame Quality Settings not recognized

Hey,

I´ve a problem with the Unity builtin Quality settings(Edit>>Project Settings>> Quality).

I disabled the standart Resolution dialog at the start and moved the things I want to control to a Guibox that is controlled via Playerprefs. There you can choose between the three builtin Quality settings(fastest, good, fantastic)and save these settings to a PlayerPrefs Key.

Here is a snippet that shows how the settings are passed to PlayerPrefs:

     if (GUI.Toggle (Rect (325, 500, 125, 25),(PlayerPrefs.GetInt("quality") == 2), GUIContent("High"), "button")) {
         QualitySettings.currentLevel = QualityLevel.Fantastic;
         PlayerPrefs.SetInt("quality", 2);
     }

The first scene of the game is an Introscene, this Introscene has a qualitysettings_start_script that checks for the Quality Settings that a user has choosen or use the defaults, this system worked all fine.

Here is a snippet that shows how the settings are read from the registry at startup:

 function Awake() {
     if (!PlayerPrefs.HasKey("quality")) { // set to default settings on first run!}
     .....
     else {
       QualitySettings.currentLevel = QualityLevel.Fantastic;
      }

 

Then I made little changes under Edit>>Project Settings>>Quality tab, like using 16xAA in the Fantastic settings, and after that change the qualitysettings_start_script and its values are ignored at startup, but defenitly saved to the registry.

If I do not change the values in the builtin Qualitysettings all work fine, but if I change only one thing there,like on the screenshot it is not longer working.

I have reproduced this several times and really do not know what is the problem here....
