Thank you! Somehow not having the thing visable was a big pain.

I would recommend removing the "Particle Effects Remover" from the OP as it is somewhat outdated and spams errors in the console when in use (as of the gun mettle update).

Not running a toaster? Enable r_renderoverlayfragment in your general config today! Now you, too, can understand what numbered doors your team is talking about, follow the directions left by the mapper, and find healthpacks and ammo that are already taken! Never again will you be the fifth person to say "no health" on a map with three lunchboxes per atrium!

mat_antialias 0
mat_forceaniso 0

Don't set these to 0. The minimum value of these cvars is 1, and setting them to 0 will just cause a material system reload = breaking mumble overlay/increasing game startup time. Think about it: mat_antialias controls the number of samples taken per pixel on your screen. If you took 0 samples per pixel, your screen would be entirely black :P
Reading directly from the game's code, the same hardcoded minimum exists for mat_forceaniso:
pConfig->m_nForceAnisotropicLevel = max( mat_forceaniso.GetInt(), 1 );

If setting mat_antialias to 0 is harmful, why does my game tell me it's the default?

any way to being able to upscale lower resolutions to fit the screen and avoid black bars WITHOUT having to enable "Full-screen" and "perform scaling on: gpu" on the nvidia control panel settings, which have been reported as giving massive input lag?

http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/3336349969024300402/9C0B49A932DFEC668F1DCDE08EC54EEE61A54CF3/

i'm asking this because the horrible results that i desire of your "Max fps for toasters" is, if i'm not wrong, the result of the lowest resolution possible being upscaled to a much bigger one. if i try to do this with the display options that give the minimal input lag possible, the result is black bars instead of upscaling.

Something has to resample the image to display it at a different resolution, monitor or GPU. If the GPU adds too much lag, then the monitor has to do it. Check your monitor's settings somehow. This can be better or worse depending on how your monitor implements resampling in its display pipeline.

Source engine locks the aspect ratio setting behind sv_cheats in FPS titles for some reason.

You should check the input lag for yourself.

Because the values of these cvars are loaded as part of the material system config that is stored in the registry. They arent loaded and stored like normal cvars.

Dxlevel 91 does not exist.

I think it works, but it's just not as common. The most common modes are 80, 81, 90, 95, and 98. But a lot of other ones work (i THINK).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DirectX Technically nobel is right there's only Direct X 9.0, 9.0a, 9.0b, and 9.0c. But your suppose to be running dxlevel 81 for the toaster config anyways.

nobelharvardsTry putting "-w 1920 -h 1080" in your launch options instead of "w- 1920 h- 1080" in your lunch options.

If you did not get it, the dash needs to be before the launch option, not after it.

sorry its the way you wrote it ill edit my post

I also found this interesting cvar:

net_splitpacket_maxrate def. "80000" min. 1000.000000 max. 1048576.000000
"Max bytes per second when queueing splitpacket chunks"

I tried setting it to max with no noticeable effects...gonna stick with it for a bit out of curiosity. Would appreciate if anyone could identify what exactly it does.

From what I understand, this cvar controls packet splitting server-side to send more packets to the clients, to alleviate choke. I don't think it has any effect if set on the client.
