#18 Sage's Linux FPS guide in TF2 General Discussion

FireIsnt it generally a bad idea to allow sudo powers without a password ?

This only allows a single user to avoid the prompt on a specific program.

newDiGiTOne common problem that I would like to ask regarding the gamma though. changing the brightness slider in settings does not change the actual brightness in game, and I have already set fullscreen. Is there a solution for it?

I can change it when I first start the game, but if I change it after joining a server it doesn't do anything until I restart the game.

#15 Sage's Linux FPS guide in TF2 General Discussion

If anyone is testing different settings and wants an less tedious method to benchmark, here's a bash script I made when I was testing what worked well on my machine. It runs a demo 3 times, tries to scrape the settings used, along with the system specs and then appends the results to a file after the game closes. It's not exactly pretty, but it works.

Results look like this

Also here's a script that can change the governor to performance if any of the listed processes are running, and sets it to powersave if they're no longer running. However, you need cpupower to be exempted in the /etc/sudoers file so it can be elevated without a prompt. You can do that by adding something like this to the end of the file

your_username_here ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/cpupower

#17 Felik's config // Chris' config replacement in Customization

Thanks for the work you put into this fx. I noticed there's no anti-aliasing cvar in your config, is that intentional?

You can change colours around and there's also a vector flag theme and image embedding script in the description. Hope you enjoy, let me know if you have any suggestions.

#19 Linux users: How's tf2 running? in TF2 General Discussion

I regularly switch between Arch and Windows 7, so I have a fair bit of recent play time on both platforms. I personally don't notice any differences between them, they perform similarly.

 OS: Arch Linux 
 Kernel: x86_64 Linux 4.4.6-1-ck
 Resolution: 3840x1080
 DE: XFCE4
 WM: Xfwm4
 CPU: Intel Core i5-3570K CPU @ 3.8GHz
 GPU: GeForce GTX 760 361.28
 RAM: 7875MiB

I use the ck patched kernel and proprietary NVIDIA drivers. I set CPU policy to SCHED_ISO when running TF2, and the CPU governor to Performance. I use an unaltered cowmanglia's gfx.cfg and run the game at 1920x1080.
Running this "benchmark demo" gives me the following:

2639 frames 18.378 seconds 143.60 fps ( 6.96 ms/f) 11.731 fps variability

Windows with same cfg for comparison

2639 frames 19.202 seconds 137.44 fps ( 7.28 ms/f) 10.304 fps variability # dxlevel 95
2639 frames 19.222 seconds 137.29 fps ( 7.28 ms/f) 10.262 fps variability # dxlevel 90
2639 frames 16.815 seconds 156.95 fps ( 6.37 ms/f) 11.132 fps variability # dxlevel 81

CHERRYbastia question for you linux users than if i got this thread here already.
if you played on winows before that do you notice any differences in mouse speed? even when i was 100% sure that my drivers were working correctly, my mouse felt about 1.5 times as fast even on desktop while not ingame.There's no raw input afaik and some distros have mouse acceleration so this would be my bet

There is raw input, it's simply bugged. TF2 has a bugged version of a library that doubles the raw sensitivity. Using half your Windows sensitivity should be identical.
Disabling mouse acceleration is always good though.
