I would but I have no idea how honestly

I did that for my own config. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faNeipYH4cw

I apologize for my awful gameplay, the overlay was displayed while I played, so I couldn't see anything :(

That's really cool, could you do that with the benchmark demo? Should give you a very good comparison of the 2 configs. My suspicion is yours well have a lot less variance while mine will have a higher average.

Sure, but it will take me some time to get it out though since I now use a Nvidia card and only AMD cards have this feature on Linux. I'm building a new PC (with Vega) in around December since this i7 870 is falling off now.

Isn't r_lod 0 the highest value?

r_lod -1 uses automatic LOD, i.e, uses r_rootlod and fades through different LODs. Using anything other than -1 is not recommended (unless you're using 0 to force best quality), because if you try to use r_lod to force a lower LOD, you might not be using the ideal LOD (performance-wise) for that distance.

My Launch Options:

I have some custom particles, a killsound, and a hud. If I open up a menu while playing I can see the game though.

Interesting. Most fps configs use r_lod 2 even comanglia's config.

Does your HUD have transparent viewmodels?

Well if a model has a lower LOD level than 2, it won't ever be used. r_rootlod sets the highest LOD level that can be used, so while r_lod 2 will always use LOD level 2, r_rootlod 2 will start at LOD level 2, and fade to even lower LODs if needed.

yah, i forgot to add the cmds lol
edit: actually that didn't fix anything

Try using building_cubemaps 0.

Still no change :(

:( I'll try out transparent viewmodels and see what the problem is. Could I use your HUD (for consistency)?

Why not upload your entire custom folder?

i use omphud-redux. here is custom folder

your igpu isn't the problem my man

There are a few config options that the comments suggest setting based on if you have a weak GPU and weak CPU. Try setting those. Also, I haven't investigated a lot of the visual settings that will boost FPS on these potato computers.

Even with that, I feel like FPS only gives part of the story. What about load times, stuttering, etc?

Thanks. I'll investigate soon.

In addition to adding more options to make the graphics less taxing on weak computers, I'm also planning on revamping the comments. Right now, the purpose of comments aren't very well defined, so I wanted to have each comment both explain the CVar, as well as why I chose a certain value for that CVar to be the default for the config. However, I'm not entirely sure how to organize the text for that. So, anyone have ideas on what they would prefer for comment formatting?

Also, I've been thinking for a while now about adding presets/versions for my config for different setups (kind of like what Comanglia did for their config). However, the problem that's been making me hesitant to do that is that there isn't really a one size fits all for some of these CVars (eg maxframes) and that's why I've only added comments suggesting to change values in certain cases. I'm turning to the community for feedback as to what I should do for this problem about varying values being optimal for different PCs.

So I just installed this config and there's a few issues I've encountered so far.

Whenever I join my own local server, I just get stuck in respawn, cannot move and can't shoot, the fire sound just laps and no projectiles or scatters come out.

Also another thing I've noticed is that whenever I try and change my settings or even change a crosshair while in a casual game, when I press ok it disconnects me out of the game? Very strange

Also what is the reasoning on having mat_trilinear 0

check page 1 for ur first problem

should I use this or comang high / 7700k r9 390

MORE FIXES!

BUG FIX:
- Fixed being able to leave the map
- Fixed two spots where you were able to stand on rooves
- Fixed a spot where you could stand in the middle of nothing
- Fixed a couple of graphical errors
- Hopefully fixed the HUD issues(?) (The settings were on default in hammer editor but I think my custom HUD might have something to do with it…)

Shoutout to carn for helping me!

host_thread_mode 0 breaks local servers but apparently helps when you're online. You can just make a toggle-bind for it.

TF2 defaults to mat_dxlevel 81, so changing this to 90 fix's it
