#7 Is 'Placebo' Bad? in Customization

"1. The original makes me feel disoriented"

Not really placebo now that I think about it, the rockets come from a different origin

"2. I can't hit things with the original."

Not really placebo now that I think about it, the rockets come from a different origin so aiming wouldn't be "exactly the same"

"3. Raw Input makes me aim feel different vs Windows 10 + MarkC Mousefix (http://donewmouseaccel.blogspot.com/2010/03/markc-windows-7-mouse-acceleration-fix.html)
NOTE: I have heard that there is some evidence pointing to the fact that Valve's raw input has unavoidable smoothing, this one may actually not be placebo."

Raw Input between 7 / 8 / 10 isn't different, so Placebo. Your Note is true though.

"4. Toggling my viewmodels on and off changes my scout gameplay"

Somewhat placebo, turning them off allows you to see more, having them on brings your eyes toward a point to focus (usually). So personal preference, but not placebo.

"5. m0re's config feels a lot smoother to me than chris/comanglia's."

Might be placebo (their's so many things going on here that it's really hard to say)

"6. Placing my forearm on the edge of the table and keeping my arm straight gives me better reaction time and higher APM than resting my palm on a palmrest/the table."

This has a lot more to do with sensitivity settings. People with low sens really shouldn't have a constant palm rest, also it's bad on your wrist if you have a palm rest.

"7. Claw grip gives me way faster reaction times"

Depends on "Way faster" 5-10ms sure (it easier to reach the actuation force necessary from a claw grip than from a palm grip), but much more than that is definitely placebo.

"8. The Null-Void Movement Cancel script when used in a certain way is a game-changer for scout. The movement patterns I create with this allow me to play on-par with and sometimes even beat scouts in DM and MGE gamemodes with hundreds of hours more than me, despite only having 30 Hours on scout."

Placebo, honestly I think the null-void movement scrips actually makes scout slightly more linear. You completely loose the ability to stop instantly, which can be a bad thing.

#7 Eagle scouts? in Off Topic

Life Scout as well, only had to do my project to get Eagle. I was going to build a utility shed for a local camp ground, I had already selected dates and had plenty of volunteers, had all the information for supplies, and reached 60-70% of the money I needed to do it. I then had a abscessed tooth, that I got blood poisoning from. Was put on anti-biotics for 2 weeks while being basically bed ridden, which I then had a bad reaction to and was in/out of the hospital for another 2-3 weeks, then I had a root-canal. By the time that was all said and done I didn't have anymore time to do the actual work of the Eagle project.

Looking back I'm not even mad about it, I did basically everything to be an Eagle Scout and learned a lot from it. That and it was pretty much my fault for waiting until the last 3-4 months before my 18th birthday.

#39 Danpixed's MaxFPS compilation in Customization
R4ndomI just did a quick compare / merge on notepad++ using plugins and this is what this came out with.
I compared m0re's cfg, Comanglia's cfg and yours.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/pupnrts6dqmw9f2/r4ndom.txt?dl=0

Lots of cvars that were on m0re that weren't on neither of yours or Comanglia's.

Not all cvars actually effect FPS, or most the game in a noticeable way at all.

#15 Selling a gaming laptop? in Hardware
HallowCan you connect it to a 120hz monitor? (and have it produce 120hz obviously)HallowPretty sure you need either a recent version of HDMI or displayport.

HDMI 1.4b which was released in 2011 is most likely the port on this, as HDMI 2.0 didn't come out until April this year. 1080p 120Hz should be possible on it.

Conversely you can also use a CRT monitor over the VGA port, and use 120Hz assuming you can find a CRT that supports it.

KrocketKarmaComangliaA bit unrelated, but this reminded my of a BF4 frag video I saw.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKOw_SgNg20

Dude has some horrifyingly impressive twitch aim.
Jesus christ it almost seems like an aimbot at some points. He flicks so fast I can't tell if he has a 1" 360 or is flailing is arm across his desk.

Dude has hand cams for alot of his shit, I'd believe he's legit. Or he uses a triggerbot, but he stops dead on them and doesn't flick wildly so probably not.

Dude has some horrifyingly impressive twitch aim.

it looks like he has a really high sens so when he actually lands the flicks it looks more impressive, but I bet he isn't nearly as consistent as somebody with low sens. also those team comms sound like cancer, jesus.

edit jk he says it's about 8.5 per 360 which is only fairly high.

8.5 is about average imo, but I think this dude is probably fairly consistent.

#161 TF2 benchmarks in TF2 General Discussion
guyystComangliaI know this is bit of a necro, but I'm kinda curious if anyone has the capability of showing benchmarks of

Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10

I already benchmarked Windows 7 and 10 (Don't have an installation of 8) for another thread, and didn't find a noticable difference.
But since the other test only had an average of 2 benchmarks I decided to do it again with an average of 6.
And oh boy was I wrong before...

Windows 10

Comanglia's Max FPS for Potatoes and Toasters config and dxlevel 81
2639 frames 16.865 seconds 155.49 fps ( 6.61 ms/f) 8.321 fps variability
Chris' dx9frames config and dxlevel 95
2639 frames 19.329 seconds 132.22 fps ( 7.21 ms/f) 6.176 fps variability

Windows 7

Comanglia's Max FPS for Potatoes and Toasters config and dxlevel 81
2639 frames 13.611 seconds 192.02 fps ( 5.19 ms/f) 10.046 fps variability
Chris' dx9frames config and dxlevel 95
2639 frames 17.757 seconds 148.58 fps ( 6.57 ms/f) 6.909 fps variability

This would mean that, with a potatoe configuration, we are looking at differnce of 23.5% between Windows 7 and Windows 10.
With dx9frames for both OS's it's "only" 12.3%.

CPU and overclock: 4930K @ 4.4 GHz
Graphics Card: 780

Driver version: 353.62
Resolution: 1920x1080 (Native)
Full-screen or windowed: Full-screen

I wonder if such a big difference in performance only applies to my setup, so maybe someone else can weigh in on this data.

Interesting, it might be related to driver support, since a difference between the 2 OS's to that extent doesn't seem right. Also you have a awfully good PC to be using my Potato/Toaster cfg.

#158 TF2 benchmarks in TF2 General Discussion

I know this is bit of a necro, but I'm kinda curious if anyone has the capability of showing benchmarks of

Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10 (might not be feasible for some if they don't have updated drivers for the new OS)

All of them using high performance options, and the same config.

I know from some tests I did about a year ago Windows 8.1 did about 5% better than 7, but not sure how Windows 10 compares.

#19 120hz vs 140hz at 120fps in Hardware
Setsul#1
You can set a 144Hz monitor to 120Hz.
Getting a monitor that can do 120Hz but not 144Hz will be difficult.
Behold: 120Hz monitors
How many of those are available? A grand total of ZERO.
>=144Hz monitors
How many are available? All except 3 that have been replaced by newer models and the monoprice one.

To add to this most 120Hz monitors (where 120Hz is the highest refresh rate) are a bit old, and don't have nearly as good color quality and/or gtg response times.

#223 My FPS config in Customization
rage1Might be a stupid question, but still. I'm about to switch from a 60 Hz 1680x1050 monitor to a 144 Hz 1920x1080. Right now I'm getting around 144 FPS (via benchmark) with your config. Would I lose FPS when I switch to a higher resolution and if yes, how much would it be? What else could I do to increase it a bit more?

You'll likely lose FPS do to the different Aspect Ratio. You're currently on 16:10 and are moving to 16:9. So you'll see a small fps drop, but on the bright side you'll have a higher FOV.

#33 Newbie Mix Coaching Incentives in TF2 General Discussion
BenroadsEDIT: a general checklist before playing would also be a nice thing to have, having 3 or 4 people with 75 FOV is pretty depressing as it pretty much physically hurts me to watch them play with it. Having a video or simple installer for configs would be nice as I remember when I started playing I was super afraid to do anything with my configs or HUD as I was paranoid about fucking my game up.

I'd love to help out with this.

Also if anyone knows how to setup ragdolls to disappear after 2-3s that would be great, so far I can only do default settings, insta-disappear, and never disappear. Please send me a message on how to do it, I'd really like to make a noob friendly fps cfg.

#30 Newbie Mix Coaching Incentives in TF2 General Discussion
mustardoverlord Then there's the hardware/game customization stuff, it's really important that we make tutorials and the like about that as well so people know that someone with 10 fps prolly won't be amazing at this game.

I guess I could make a video about installing my cfg (or any config for that matter). I don't know though I never seem to have enough time/want to do it though. Plus the video really shouldn't be much longer than like 3 minutes. Problem is though if I make a video, it would be for windows 7; tech illiterate people who use MACs and any other version of windows will be confused. Would be a lot of easier to just learn to make an installer probably.
