Thanks for the advice, I think we're gonna do really well in steel this year (we're scrimming silver teams and doing well. After this season I think we'll move on to silver, at which point I'll suggest open

But at this point I'm with a really great team (not just good players, good people) and we work really well together, but I don't think that some of them would be ready to commit to open (you have to pay for esea as well, correct?)

But ever since I've started playing competitive I've always wanted to try and get really good at tf2. I mean, I think I'm going down the right track to someday play in open or even IM, I'm just not sure how many seasons of UGC I should play prior

What would you guys compare ESEA open to in UGC? I'm playing steel 6's now, and after a couple of seasons I'm hoping to be able to join ESEA open, but when is the best time?

Ok, thanks so much

Ok, I'm trying to start editing a fragmovie for my team. Basically getting the clips isn't an issue, but recording them with the settings I want is. I wanna record without HUD, but I still wanna see the killfeed. Every movie I've ever seen does this, but how? Do I have to download a custom HUD, or are there console commands that I should use

cl_ragdoll_forcefade 1

This disables all gibs, also PUT THIS INTO YOUR AUTOEXEC FILE. How to make an autoexec? Go into your tf folder, click on the cfg folder, and then copy one of the files that is a CFG type file. Paste it back into your cfg folder, and then rename it to autoexe.cfg. Be sure to leave the original file (the one that you copied) or you're gonna be screwed. Then open up the file using notepad (I would download notepad ++, it saves tons of time trying to change settings in your hud) and delete all the text in it. Then copy and paste any commands you want into the cfg file, and then save using notepad. Open/reopen your game, and you'll have whatever autoexec files you wanted put into your game. Enjoy!

I also use net_graph 1 so i can see my ping and fps
