SetsulYou don't like brightness, you don't like the contrast and you're probably just telling yourself the colours are better. That ICC profile is useless for you. Borrow a colorimeter and make a proper ICC profile that actually improves things. Or tweak the OSD settings manually, you can actually get acceptable results with this monitor.
I've turned up the brightness beyond what they've suggested, and turned the contrast to what feels good. The colors from the profile are better than the out of the box colors, but they're still horrible, honestly. They piss me off all the time. I just don't have access to a colorimeter.
I've tweaked the OSD beyond what it told me, and while I'm okay with some colors, darkness has a tint to it and I can never get low blacks. That's actually a "feature" that I can't disable, meant to improve visiblity in games with low light. Why the fuck can't I disable it?
I use the 2420Z @ 144, I just use the color profile from here
I think the color is ass from this profile (for my own panel) but I haven't really been bothered to make it better. It's far better than the best I could get out of the box. Fuck I hate the contrast and low light settings it forces on you. But man, dat 144Hz.
It was alright. Not my cup of tea, and I felt it kind of droned on for a little long. It feels like lots of songs mashed together. Still alright though.
ManSkirtDude101because it takes time to make these.....
I'm pretty sure he means on the items themselves.
DamnEasyWhy do you put the price under it? Makes it worse tbh
Dunno, not exactly hard to remove. I'm making up an example soldier one right now using TF2's item hover template rather than Watch Dogs'.
Hey, so I was coming up with a new loadout in SFM when I got the inspiration to make a little clip showing the final one off.

Would anyone be interested in having something similar to this made for their own loadout? I'm not sure how much I would charge, probably only like a key for a minute of animation.

also apparently brings back the upside-down viewmodels with fov_desired 180

noooo now valve will fix it
anyway I found it's super easy to do this with the laugh taunt but really hard with most other taunts, so good luck trying to do this in comp unless you're running the etf2l config which doesn't ban taunts

i couldn't pick any in particular but here's my top 9
edit: the number of people that downvote without having actually listened to these songs
Snow Patrol's "The Lightning Strike", Coldplay's "Death and All His Friends", and Foo's "I Am A River" are probably my top 3 in that order
hooliyou can achieve any fov you want by creating a custom resolution
nvidia instructions
create a custom resolution, if you want 120 fov use 1920x 830 assuming you use fov_desired 90. You don't have to be using this resolution as your desktop resolution you just need to have it saved as a custom resolution. after that just put -w 1920 -h 830 (or w/e res you want) in your launch options
ex http://www.twitch.tv/hoolitv/b/638161380
The point is that this trick is aspect ratio-independent, and gives you a fov_desired of 120, which means at 1920x830 you'd have an even higher fov than 120.
BurningAlso the FOV is reset when you go through a teleporter, and there are probably some other things that reset it as well. I don't see this as being very useful as it is very hard to do. Oh well.
Anything that pops the camera out from your viewmodel or alters your FOV in any way - going into third person, spectating someone, taunting, using a teleporter, scoping in, probably altering your field of view normally.
BurningI'm pretty sure I know why this happens.
I don't think so. Remember, it happened to me while simply congaing, not using a tele. I think it's very situational and was probably exacerbated by a recent patch. I've played TF2 for years and I've never seen this happen before.
For the record though, Burning, I was able to reproduce it the way you said.
GiraffeI randomly ran into the commands that explain this the other day. It's built into tf2 that after teleporting your fov is increased to 120 and descales back to what you had before over a period of 0.5 second. Maybe alt-tabbing at the exact time causes it to get stuck at 120 fov.
It's not alt tabbing, though that could have caused it too if someone used fullscreen. I run in borderless windowed. It was probably the taunting that messed it up.
I know this is going to be patched within a few days now that we've narrowed it down, but please Valve, at least increase the FOV to 100. I understand the spy argument, and 120 isn't necessary, but at least give us 100, even if only through cvars ;_;
Anyway, I've managed to reproduce it a couple of times with the teleporter taunt. Something interesting to note is that while in this bugged mode, fov_desired does absolutely nothing. You can set your FOV to 75 and everything is still at a high FOV. Taunting does not revert it, but taking a tele, dying, and scoping in do.
It happened again in my next round of MvM
I was congaing pre-game and came out of it and suddenly 120fov
Air_why were you taunting robots
I did the laugh taunt pre-game after coming out of a teleporter in reaction to something the medic did
