i'm sorry but this still bugs me. do we keep -dxlevel 81 on the launch properties or not?

no

Depends on the definition of "significant" and the only things I know of would affect a whole lot more than just your viewmodels.

Your choice really, some people have alt+tab issues with it in, some don't and from my experience leaving it in gives tf2 more consistent FPS if you rarely restart your PC.

This will make alt tabbing very slow. Set mat_antialias and mat_forceaniso to 1 in your config and *make sure there are no duplicate entries of this cvar in any of your configs*

I mean, what are my options?

Whenever I shoot using (e.g shotgun), I don't see the bullet flying out of the gun. How do I enable to bullet visual again?

maybe r_drawtracers_firstperson
set it to 1

if you add -nod3d9ex to launch options, are the following cvars irrelevant? (or are they irrelevant anyways?)

mat_supports_d3d9ex
mat_disable_d3d9ex

Yo, I've noticed since the gun mettle update (maybe before?) that sometimes I get this strange mouse lag. For example, when doing flicks shots or even just strafing, it somethimes feels as though my sensitive has been halved. I remember noticing something when playing on a pub about a week ago. I thought it was related to the subpar fps I was getting (due to the recent update) so I changed back from dx90 to dx81. However I noticed yesterday it was happening again when I was doing my snowplow contract. I also set cl_ejectbrass to 1, but I can't remember if I did it because of the mouse lag or because my TF2 sometimes stutters, so could that potentially be the problem? I also thought vertical sync could have been the problem, but it's set to 0 in my config and my video setting confirm that its disabled.

Might be a stupid question, but still. I'm about to switch from a 60 Hz 1680x1050 monitor to a 144 Hz 1920x1080. Right now I'm getting around 144 FPS (via benchmark) with your config. Would I lose FPS when I switch to a higher resolution and if yes, how much would it be? What else could I do to increase it a bit more?

You'll likely lose FPS do to the different Aspect Ratio. You're currently on 16:10 and are moving to 16:9. So you'll see a small fps drop, but on the bright side you'll have a higher FOV.

^this

so i clicked the link and copied and pasted all of the code into notepad++ but i have no idea what to call it when i save it or where to put it.

(c:) > program files(x86) > steam > steamapps > common > Team Fortress 2 > tf > cfg

thanks for telling me where to put it but do i name it autoexec or something else?

I have a detailed step by step guide on that thread.

I've beet putting autoexec in ...>common>Team Fortress 2>tf>custom>Configuration>cfg since steampipe. Am I doing it wrong?

No. This is exactly how I do it.

Pls move to this thread.
http://www.teamfortress.tv/thread/25328/comanglia-s-config-fps-guide

no yours is correct. what cme posted is wrong and is similar to how it used to be pre-steampipe.

idk it works for me

it's not wrong, but it's still dumb. No reason to use those files when they would work just fine in custom, and the custom ones get priority.

Dumb question where do I put this in. Launch options or do I have to do something else? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/92187841/gfx.cfg

hi,i recently use ur config,but i found the consle keeping showing this"Attemped to precache unknown particle system "grenade_smoke_cycle" which makes me keep laggy,how can i deal with this?currently i am using dx81 and if i chnge to dx90,it doesn't happen but more lag, at the same time, i amusing the MOD and script suggested here https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/1mb8tq/,plz solve my problem,thx m8

the lag is not even cauise by the mod,i have tried deleting them and just use the config,lag is still here and caused by the "Attemped to precache unknown particle system "grenade_smoke_cycle" ,as this sentence get out , my char will freeze

I've been trying to turn sprays back on. I just wanna have it on for pubs and what not, but I cant seem to figure it out lmao. Im new to configs and what not aha. Can someone tell me how? Thanks

im using the mid tier comp one.

This thread is not the official thread anymore, his is stickied.

Also, Comanglia has everything and tidy and neat and organized. If you had opened your autoexec, you'd see this in it:
