#139 Drama Thread - Kritzkast in TF2 General Discussion

For the record, I am not equating Agro's shitty attitude and aloofness with Dashner's shit. Clearly Agro doesn't even compare. I was simply equating the argument of "yeah they're bad but what would we do without them", since it was used in his case as well, for years.

Anyone thinking that KritzKast will die from the drama in this thread is delusional, but I do hope the community taking a stand here might tip Agro off to the fact that he's actually not always in the right.

sacyou're comparing someone who chatbanned someone with a celebrity pedophile and have no answer what would happen if they are gone

KritzKast dies. Other casting orgs continue. New blood steps up to the plate. People realize they didn't need toxic manchildren to have a great experience with the game they love.

In short, competitive TF2 was inside of us the whole time.

we did it boys. we got the frames.
i was gonna argue that i get those frames in the current build of tf2 but its actually only at 745 with a 1070 i7 6700

the frames arent all that high, this is actually just a screenshot of the first linux build attempt, stuff is broken AF because of a couple known reasons, hence most models being fucked

#89 Drama Thread - Kritzkast in TF2 General Discussion
AgroYeah I often go around the low number streamers, saying "hi" and helping out if I can with audio settings and what not. Just being a human.AgroNo, you're right. I've never seen that either. Maybe the grand community would seem a friendlier place if we all made the effort to help out streamers without being afraid of being seen.

Are you intentionally not understanding what they're saying?

_KermitYou don't see enigma popping into channels as tftv or arch as essentials, just my two cents though.

honestly it would be sort of funny to see lange doing his shitposting with the toth account in a twitch stream

Those are some juicy threading changes. I'd love to see some benchmarks or frame graphs with before/after.

Not at all detailed, and only a single run of each (not a bunch of samples), but on a computer with NO background tasks, running at 1440p max ingame settings, 5930k, GTX 1080:

TC2 0.0.16 dustbowlbench: 16250 frames 86.039 seconds 188.87 fps ( 5.29 ms/f) 26.496 fps variability
TF2 8/27/20 dustbowlbench: 16250 frames 94.149 seconds 172.60 fps ( 5.79 ms/f) 14.829 fps variability

I'll be grabbing frametimes comparisons later. Those are more helpful for this sort of thing, but I just didn't have the time before.

This demo is spectating a full lobby of bots (can't remember if 24 or 32) fighting on Dustbowl's first map, until they cap the final point.

ScrewBIf this is being looked at by Valve is there any possibility of bringing mat_picmips below -1? You used to be able to read the signs on the walls with -5 and the textures had less compression artifacts. Seems to me this should be the default for ultra textures considering almost every graphics card from the last decade can run this setting with little to no performance impact.
Example:https://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/thumb/3/3b/Tf2compare1pp2.jpg/400px-Tf2compare1pp2.jpg

Mat_picmip < -1 can cause issues with some hardware and assets. The better way to handle this is to just generate those assets with proper mips in the first place, but then you're talking about asset changes as opposed to code changes, so that's kind of outside the scope of this project.

If this gains a foothold with Valve, and we're able to contribute directly to the live game, then absolutely, it's something we'll look into.
