Second time I put this here.

When spies are not fully invis for example:
*Cloak ran out
*You are on fire while cloaked
*You are cloaked and get bumped by someone

My game just, explodes(lelno), it just drops fps, really hard (from ~120 to 30 or less). What causes this?
Doesnt matter where on earth is that spy, if its on the same server I'm on, I drop fps.

Could you post your system details and pastebin configs used?

Also it's a great anti spy measure had a guy on my team once who had this issue but me as med was pretty happy cause we always knew when there were spies on the field lmao.

Most people have told me that its great to have an actual spy checker, I used to play pyro in HL and people just wouldnt try to help me because they said I was supposed to spycheck.

I didnt try to argue with them but dropping fps is not good at all, also 1 spy is bad, imagine 2 on a HL game, or possible 10 on a pub (okno).

I use maxframes by chris
low particles
I changed the explosions.

As someone with that issue, you can know the approximate location of a spy on the map depending on how many fps you drop. If he is close, your fps drop more, if he fainted on the other part of the map, you drop less.
