Try the following:

- Uninstall the game from steam.
- Exit steam from the system tray
- Delete the directory in c:\Program Files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\
- Delete the directory in c:\Program Files (x86)\steam\steamapps\temp
- Delete the directory in c:\Program Files (x86)\steam\steamapps\downloading
- Remove the folder in the registry location "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\Source\tf\Settings"
- Reboot
- install steam via steam://install/440
- verify that the game installed correctly via steam://validate/440

Thanks for the archive links when i checked this earlier they failed to load properly, seems to be resolved now.

Have you checked the basic stuff like what clock speed the CPU running at, what the power settings are, what the temps are, etc.

Hello all,

I'm working on rebuilding the bball.tf website and server base. Servers are back up and running but the website needs some work. According to damon he doesn't have any of the source code of the original site so i'm starting from scratch. i'd like to see if anyone happened to get their hands on the original code or has photos of how the website was originally. Screenshots or video snippets would be extremely appreciated to help me get a base for what i should be looking to recreate. Any logos or other assets of the site would also be extremely useful!

Regards.
Burning

I'll be working on something to make registering for events/tournaments easier in the future through the bball.tf website. I'll let you all know when its ready.

Can someone pm me his ip address so I can add it to a blacklist for the servers I manage? (I'm doubtful it will do very much since he likely has a dynamic ip as most home users do) (Please send attached to an rcon status output to show its the correct ip address i'm blacklisting.)

Just buy a samsung 850 evo or buy the pro variant if you want something a bit faster (+20MIB) with a longer warranty. (10 year over the 5 year of the evo model) Reasoning is they are simply solidly built ssd drives. I'd recommend skipping any of that cheap budget ssd crap if you can. Reasoning is that most of them use shitty flash and degrade quickly over the span of a few years.

There are some other good quality ssd's out there so just look around.

As for NVME. Your unlikely to notice the diffrence day to day. It only really comes into play in heavy read/write/io operations. (Basically you'd know if you needed it.)

Linux is great and I highly recommend it to those who are willing to sit down and learn it. It has a learning curve to get used to. (Such as command line for package installs and maintenance.) I personally consider it to be far better with its efficiency from day to day use and performance under heavy applications that can benefit from it. Things like being able to update EVERYTHING with a simple alias command, not having pop ups telling you to restart for updates. No waiting 10-30 minutes for your computer to install updates. (Seriously how is Microsoft STILL doing this???) The ability to truly have ownership over your operating system. It does what you tell it to, not the other way around.

However you must keep this in mind. It can't run exe applications. While there are compatibility applications out there like wine it can't all of them. If you play esea your shit outta luck as the client only works under Windows.

Tf2 runs flawlessly under my system.

Add me if you want help switching to it or dual booting.

So I am finally going over my demo archive to make a frag movie for some fun. I have some demos from about a year ago. however on cp_Badlands demos they all crash about half way through. No crash logs or anything. When going to the tick specified it locks up half way through the demo then crashes. It seems that only certain cp_badlands demos are affected.

Has anyone here had this issue and how did you solve it?

Regards

Yes it was plugged in through power during our testing. Will test temperatures once we get him up and running with Antergos. [Currently running into a problem with the optimums graphics driver. Working on resolving it.]

Its a brand new computer, with a fresh copy of Windows 10 on it.

Here are the steps I have done for him prior to having him put Linux on the computer. (Since it plain works better in a lot of ways)

Fresh install of windows 10 (I never trust the factory installs ever)
Removal of all windows 10 junkware. (Stuff like the xbox app and cortana)
Adjusting power settings for high performance
Setting the Nvidia GPU as default for global and game specific settings.
Adjustment of Windows services and startup checks
Default tf2 install. (Never head back the results of this though so im not sure if he did it or not)
Removal of Windows 10 spyware junk

We ran into problems with both games and overall system performance being sluggish. Will report back once I find out how the Antergos LInux install goes for him.

I find it odd since his old computer ran better and had lower end specifications.
