0 Frags +

I've searched and tinkered for many hours trying to find the best FPS setup, now that I've found it, I'm willing to share. Credit to Povohat, Chris, Harbl, Insaneicide, JarateKing, Rhapsody, Comanglia, R4ndom, Rage1, Ray, and Stabby for some of the best bits. Installation instructions are located in README.txt at the root of the download. ENJOY
EDIT: Quick word of warning, works with quadcore processors, works only partially if you don't own an Nvidia graphics card.

FEATURES:
> R4ndom's config
> Diminished Explosions (sv_pure 1 compatible)
> No rocket trails (sv_pure 2 compatible)
> No hats (sv_pure 2 compatible)
> No soundscapes (sv_pure 1 compatible)
> Low Particle Count (sv_pure 2 compatible)
> No blood (sv_pure 2 compatible)
> No material impact particles (sv_pure 1 compatible)
> Low res textures (sv_pure 1 compatible)
> Ray'sHud
> Razer Cortex
> Timer Resolution
> Pov-Record 2.0.5 audio fix!

Benchmarking doesn't represent the full capabilities of my setup. I use quite a few scripts that aren't loaded in this demo, sorry guys D:

Might have done it wrong, I'll look into getting this fixed. I might be able to post a comparison tomorrow, bare with me. Very busy.

So your download has an autoexec which contains Rhapsody's performance config, if we don't want to use that is there anything else in there we need?

Epic post, even more epic that you used Rhapsody's config.

I don't think people give it the credit it deserves. His config is one of the only that gives me great FPS, while keeping the game not looking like crap. I would only consider ditching it if someone updated m0re's.

did you add anything from m0re's?
I remember in the past, I've tried some of m0re's individual settings that can't be found in other configs (mostly lighting) ,and by the looks of it, they did increase fps quite a bit. Too bad I can't remember any of the settings.

Before you ask any more questions Mighty, download the pack and look into the autoexec yourself. If it's missing something let me know and I'll update.

I remember testing the command that makes everything look blocky (I can't remember the name) and determining it makes no difference whatsoever for FPS, although I have never been GPU bound in tf2 which is really the only possible way I could see it benefiting fps.

He's got quite a number of different functions that neither comanglia or rhapsody have used in their configs, I'll test them later.

I'm sorry if I alarmed you guys but I assure you that there is NO virus, also, Stoge is the one that gave me the Nvidia inspector.

KrocketKarmaWhat's the command to not make it look grainy and blurry?

set your game to 1920x1080, all menus and utilities will run at high resolution while the gameplay runs at half that.
EDIT: If you would prefer to use a constant resolution change to mat_viewportscale 1

saamSo your download has an autoexec which contains Rhapsody's performance config, if we don't want to use that is there anything else in there we need?

You can run any other autoexec.cfg file, but for the extra features you would need to add "exec autoexec2.cfg"
I've changed Rhapsody's config slightly, it should run most if not all functions found in Comanglia cfg and others.

just fyi: most things that make the game look awful don't change fps. you should probably benchmark this before getting too excited.
