For the ears thing I would recommend yawning a bunch while taking off and while descending. I've heard chewing gum also helps but I have no idea about that.

Firstly the console is very angry at me.

I'm no map expert, but I feel like the map as a whole is extremely big. It almost feels like a jump map. There is an absurd amount of ground to cover to get from spawn to the point, making it in general difficult to rotate as a team. The maze-like nature of the mansion and the several dropdowns exacerbate this.

And the area around the point is massive, yielding sightlines such as these ones from the roof thing. Also backing up from the point, there is only one easy exit if you're not explosive jumping. Scouts can reach the top-left part but that requires them to get past a jumping puzzle in the form of crates. The right-side snowbank is deceivingly difficult to climb up, which means the roof is only a real escape route if you're already on the snowbank.

Also there's that entire underground rocket area, not sure what to say about that. The sign that says "<= ROCKET" probably means there's a rocket in that vault, but honestly it just confused me for a few seconds as I turned left and ran into a wall. I'd prefer a sign that directs me to the control point -- maybe I'm just stupid but the first time I navigated the underground area I ended up in the other team's base and had no clue where the point was.

Other miscellaneous things:
Not sure how I feel about being able to jump over this
I can imagine these things becoming a nuisance

I think the command is

ds_dir <your tf folder>

First time I remember him casting was when he replaced Hafficool after Hafficool refused to say more than two words at a time. That was an interesting cast.

I modified the script in the OP a bit to add an animation, zoom, and lowered sensitivity because I thought it would be cool. The main thing is that the animation uses the "wait" command so it wouldn't work unless sv_allow_wait_command was on.

I had this problem for the longest time, whenever I closed TF2, config.cfg would just reset to however far back it wanted; I'm guessing it has something to do with Steam Cloud. I just ended up putting anything I wanted changed in my autoexec so at least my changes would be applied while I was playing.

I think I fixed it a few days ago by deleting everything in my cfg folder (back up your important configs of course), then starting TF2 with -autoconfig (and then remove -autoconfig after this), and then just manually changing all my settings to how I want them.

Seven minutes of Scout lines but couldn't get some grunts for the Shortstop FailFish

Gotta record pre-match frags...

id color format! ShaderAPIDX8::CreateD3DTexture: Invalid color format!

I've had this problem since the beta and I didn't know what it was. I also didn't know anyone else who had it. Is there any workaround to it?

Well the OP said FPS games which I assume in this case means first-person shooters but if you mention Frets on Fire I think I should mention Phase Shift which is pretty much FoF except better (it has drums and stuff).

Not sure performance-wise but it definitely runs a lot better for me than TF2.
