#47 Why use P-REC over integrated demo support? in TF2 General Discussion

Another small bug - I can't get TF2 to generate "_events.txt" for killstreak logging when the demo output folder is /tf/. The individual json files for each demo are still created, but not the txt file. It's a bit annoying because I like to use the console autocomplete to find demos. (Making the autocomplete work within subfolders would also be a nice fix but I have no idea how hard that would be.)

For clarity, the commands I'm using:

ds_dir ""
demos are saved to /tf/, txt file is not present

ds_dir "demos"
txt file is correctly generated inside /demos along with the demo files. Also works with any other custom folder name.

#53 new valve hero shooter - Deadlock in Off Topic

I thought it looked terrible from the leak, but since I got an invite I've been absolutely proven wrong. I'm impressed with how many of the fun parts of Dota they managed to adapt to this format. I hope the initial impression doesn't put people off from giving it a good try - it does take a while to get to grips with it, but I've found it to be very rewarding and a lot of fun.

EU servers are now also live which makes a big difference. Many more EU players are now getting invited which means a lot of brand new players on the servers, so a good time to give it a try for anyone worried about learning the game.

#778 TF2 benchmarks in TF2 General Discussion
jp_mat_picmip 3 was the issue. I thought worse texture quality was suppose to help with FPS

can confirm has been the case for me since even before 64bit, mat_picmip -10 gives the most FPS by far on my benchmarks

these results made me wonder why 64bit was faster on Win11 but not Win10.
it's because I forgot that it would be a new exe; on Win10 I use process lasso to set the core affinity of hl2.exe so that it doesn't try to use E-cores, and I also disable core 0 since that guy is always up to no good.

Windows 10 re-tested

3267 frames 8.557 seconds 381.81 fps ( 2.62 ms/f) 37.040 fps variability

Looks incredibly promising, core utilisation looks so much better, much more like the performance of TC2

On Win10, manually setting affinity is still a huge boost (as with 32bit).
Win11 already has good scheduling - I did test process lasso, showed no benefit

and the benchmark demo if anyone wants to try it

#10 rahThread: AI players in TF2 General Discussion

just got done training the neural network on roamer. based on what im seeing here it looks like every mid you should bomb the medic and hit him with two direct rockets. when the scout jumps at you direct him as well. and then when both the soldiers bomb airshot both of them. the demoman is gonna be there as well so you might as well hit him with three directs
