How can I enable the 3d character model in a custom hud that isn't using it?

And is it possible to customize it? (i.e. change it's position and size)

After the Halloween update, whenever I launch TF2, the menu loads and then the screen goes black, then the main menu appears again. Whenever I have mumble overlay enabled, I can see my overlay working for a fraction of a second before the black screen, then the names become permanently highlighted (http://puu.sh/57x7n). Sometimes, the screen just stays black and I have to open Task Manager, then tab back into TF2 in order to play.

If anyone can help me to get mumble overlay working again, I'd appreciate it. :>

Edit: Mumble Settings: http://puu.sh/57xbI
I've tried using both "blacklist" and "whitelist" and still no luck. The overlay works in Path of Exile, but not TF2.

If reinstalling and running without any of your custom stuff, AND starting the game with -autoconfig as a launch option (remember to back up) doesn't fix it, try doing a basic reinstall steam. To do this without having to reinstall every game you have, exit steam, then delete everything in your steam folder besides steam.exe, steamapps, and userdata. Then run steam and let it do its thing.

Sadly it didn't work, didn't change anything in my game :(

in your performance config, find "mat_antialias 0" and comment it out (add two slashes // at the beginning). then below it add this: "mat_trilinear 0" (no quotes).

Reserve shooter is banned because it mini crits medics who jump a foot off the ground. You don't actually have to shoot an "airborne" target for it to completely wreck someone, essentially.

I've always been kind of confused by pauses in casts. The way I understand it is

- STV is 90 seconds behind
- Game is paused, at say 11:30 in
- STV pauses in real-time, so at 10:00 in
- Game unpaused, at say 12:00 in
- HUD is broken until STV passes 12:00 mark

Is this right, or have I just had some sort of delusional imaginings?

There's been a question asked about moving ammo and health. I have a similar question

I use broesel hud and when I spectate a tournament match, players come up on my left. How do I move this?

So the method of toggling a hud crosshair using the 3d playermodel method has been buggy for me for a while now; it works when i switch class/ i can toggle it when I'm dead but not when I'm alive. Is this expected behavior or am I doing something wrong?

This is what I did. Thanks to omp for telling me.

- HUD is broken until STV passes 12:00 mark

Is this right, or have I just had some sort of delusional imaginings?

From what I know it would actually work out like this:

Game Time: 11:30 (Pause), 12:00 (Unpause)

STV Time: 10:00 (Pause), 10:30 (Unpause), 11:00 (HUD Works)

It is the length of the pause that the hud is broken.

NeoziusI've made a separate thread for this problem but it couldn't hurt to post it here.

When the Scream Fortress 2013 update came out yesterday my TF2 was fine, but today my TF2 is now giving me 20 frames or less on every map I go on and I'm out of ideas on how to fix the issue.

So far i've tried: verifying my game cache, re-installing the game, running the game without my HUD and configs, disabled and enabled multicore rendering, run in dx8 and 9 (9 is what I run the game in by default anyway), running in windowed mode, checked dx levels 80-98, changed all my graphics settings in options from the reccomended settings to the ones on the fps config aswell as changing options on the nvidia control panel, enabled and disabled vsync, running in windowed mode, tried out every fps config from chris, defragging the TF2 files.

None of these fixes have worked for me so far. So if anyone can give me some suggestions i'd be very grateful.

Should also note that before this error I was getting around 200-400 frames but now I get around 100 on spawn then as I head outside into battlements/rest of the map my frames get lower than 20

This is better suited for its own thread. It'd be easier to help that way.
