#16 low fps :( in Q/A Help
maniacalI added the resolution launch options a while back when I used dx8 and it would automatically use the lowest 16:9 resolution. I’m still not sure as to what is causing this performance decrease.

But what about the -threads option?

Also, resolution changes if you keep the -dxlevel option in, instead of adding it for first launch and then removing it.

i usually don't use net_graph or cl_showfps, i put it on for the screenshot

Don't use -threads at all, as it's only useful if you have 6 cores or more. -threads specifies the number of worker threads, which are additional threads to the 2 threads the engine already uses. By using -threads 4, you are telling the engine to use a total of 6 threads, which will overwork your CPU. Using any value below -threads 4 is useless, as the engine automatically allocates up to 3 additional threads according to your hardware, so just remove the launch option.

Also, I would recommend setting your resolution inside the game's video settings and removing -w and -h, as they are known to mess with the material system's performance.

#8 Windows 10 update messing my aim? in TF2 General Discussion

You can try m_limitedcapture_workaround 1.

What are your launch options? Also, keep in mind that the net_graph reduces your FPS. A less intensive option for measuring FPS would be cl_showfps 1.

#9 low fps :( in Q/A Help
maniacalI am using Mastercoms’s config with no preset, which is basically default settings excluding mat_phong 0 (I don’t prefer shiny objects).

What version of the config are you using?

Veccidk if this'll fix it but it works for me

go into yr sound folder in tf2 and delete sound.cache

whenever i start dropping frames I do that and it seems to fix it for some reason

All_Over_RSyep it's the most downvoted reddit post by over 600k downvotes

https://www.reddit.com/r/ListOfComments/wiki/downvoted

I'd also like to note that EA has gotten more downvotes than someone who literally asked for them, a game dev who publicly wished a player would die and then didn't apologize, a presidential candidate who misunderstood nuclear energy, and the reddit CEO admitting to abusing his powers and manually editing comments, all combined, times 10.

Good job EA. Excelling where it counts for you.

alec_the real tragedy with this game is the random spread and inaccuracy on the guns

The tragedy is the bland, uninspired combat with practically no enemy variation which becomes repetitive and boring after 1 hour. Oh yeah, and almost instantly regenerating health and infinite ammo.

#737 mastercomfig - fps/customization config in Customization
sagedo the r_ambient commands not work in dx81 ? i feel like they dont make any difference there.
btw theres a line for r_lod 63 but console says this
] r_lod 63
sv_cheats=0 prevented changing r_lod outside of the range [-1,2] (was 63).

Sorry, this was accidentally left after a test. Fix will be in the next release.

About r_ambient commands, I'm not sure, maybe it's your r_worldlights setting.

May not work, but try alt tabbing and then pressing the console key a few times.

#12 combat text batching, yes or no??? in TF2 General Discussion

depends on whether or not you wanna say demos so lit because you cant do the math quickly or if you wanna say how much health he actually lost

#735 mastercomfig - fps/customization config in Customization
MalkrazSpeaking of that thread can anyone make sense of these posts:Valve servers run at below minimum of comp interlop speed. BY adjusting the cmdrate and update rate to 67 the game will:
-Run smoother
-Boot up faster
-Target acquisition is faster and much easier to obtain
>When a shitpost who knows nothing about source and server time intervals trys to shitpost at you but fails to understand that the advantage is about 67% faster. Valve servers can update up to 970 ticks per interval but since 970/67=1.34 you get about 1.3 seconds faster updates.I had no idea what this meant when he was blabbing at me and still have no clue where he's getting "970 ticks per interval" from.

I saw that too. I couldn't stop laughing. Servers limit your cmdrate and updaterate to 66 by default, so 67 just gets capped to 66. Even if it was allowed and TF2 had a tickrate higher than 66, you would just be getting 1 more network tick, not 970 ticks. Also, they have no idea what cmdrate and updaterate controls. It doesn't affect "boot time" (which I assume means server load time). Not sure what they mean by "run smoother" and "target acquisition".

N0umThank you so much, master! everything works like a charm now :)

Yay :), but btw, my preferred shortname is coms, because master sounds weird to me.

AeMost custom HUD need to disable the floating health box to show the name/health number (target ID).

Ohh ok. Thanks for pointing that out.

I just read some 4chan archives and got a kick out of people arguing about my config. If anyone from 4chan is reading this, thank you for the entertainment.
