Preloading file goes in the mastercoms folder like how it is.

I meant "magically" sarcastically. Most of the time it claims that it is going to just boost CPU performance, but the Windows CPU scheduler is smarter than some third party program. Of course, there are some inefficiencies with it, but especially with the complexities of hyperthreading, I don't think any program will just work.

That being said, I'd like to see comparisons to see how much FPS you're gaining.

Could you please share your specs please? I could recommend something based on how bad your CPU and GPU are.

Thank you for the benchmarks, sage! Did you get a chance to play with these launch options and see if they made the game "feel" different in actual play?

Thanks!! <3

Map backgrounds are no longer needed on PC as the engine intelligently preloads assets itself.

setting to 0 will increase fps

thx so much!!!!<3

no i dont have a donate link right now but if you could just donate it to a charity, preferably one for cute animals or helping the unfortunate that would mean a llot to me <3

Hi all,

would appreciate it if people with strong GPUs could do a benchmark with r_occlusion 0/1 and r_fastzreject 0/1 individually and together.

r_renderoverlayfragment 1

Try out these network settings:

cl_cmdrate 66
cl_updaterate 66
cl_interp_ratio 2
cl_smooth 1
cl_smoothtime 0.15
net_splitrate 2
rate 167580
net_maxcleartime 0.5
net_maxpacketdrop 100
net_splitpacket_maxrate 167581

Could you please tell me your specs, and also share tf\log.txt from doing con_logfile log.txt cvarlist.

Most of these programs that magically handle your CPU better (like core unparker, and process lasso) are made by people who aren't informed as much as the OS and firmware devs who actually know what they're doing.

At least they seem to be in the tail end of development. But knowing Valve, finishing a product seems to always be the hardest part for them. They love to look back and review their finished product and realize new things they can do to improve and polish it before release.

I'm interested in the case changes: they will make for some even rarer unusuals with the changing shared unusual effects.

Well I meant did you set it to "net_splitrate 3" or "net_splitrate to 3"? It should be "net_splitrate 3".

Depends on how many cores you have, how strong those cores are and how well your OS can manage the network threading using your CPU. I would only recommend it on a 4 core CPU at the very least, so the i7 seems to be fine for that.

Are you using a config? What are your net settings?
