#1517 mastercomfig - fps/customization config in Customization

ZetosThe guys mentioned earlier r_renderoverlayfragment 0 and r_staticprop_lod 0 in order to keep the decals from popping in/out depending on the distance, but that removed them from showing altogether. Is there a way to lock them on (while using Medium preset, regardless of quality, just keep them existent)?

And everytime I open my TF2, the backpack doesn't have colored borders, regardless of cl_showbackpackrarities 1 on custom.cfg. I tried using that "bug fixing technique" of repeating the cvar with 0/1 on the cfg, but still starts off everytime.

Is there another cvar that relates to this, and the medium preset enforces it? So having cl_showbackpackrarities 1 is overruled?

With the latest version, there is a custom setting called Art decal fade. You can turn it off to disable fading.

Not sure about backpack borders. Will look into it.

HrblsHow do you manage your addons with the .exe, or do you continue to DL them separately?

Addons from 6.7.0 are generally not compatible with 7.0.0.

Here's the state of porting addons to 7.0.0:

* No Extra Models: Included with 7.0.0 currently. Will be made part of the world detail setting.
* No Footsteps: Not available for 7.0.0. 6.7.0 VPK is compatible. Will be a sound setting.
* No Pyroland: Not available for 7.0.0. 6.7.0 VPK is compatible. Will be a world detail setting.
* No Soundscapes: Not available for 7.0.0. 6.7.0 VPK is compatible. Will be a sound setting.
* No Tutorial: Not available for 7.0.0. 6.7.0 VPK is not compatible. Will be a HUD setting soon.
* Mouse Tweaks: Not available for 7.0.0. 6.7.0 VPK is not compatible. Settings from mouse tweaks will be available to be changed in the input category coming soon. The specific values will be shared by me as a config addon on mastercomfig community.
* Transparent Viewmodels: Not available for 7.0.0. 6.7.0 VPK is not compatible. Will be shared by me as a config addon on mastercomfig community.
* Bad GPU: Available through the app's hardware autodetect.
* Bad CPU: Not available for 7.0.0. 6.7.0 VPK is not compatible. Will be available through the app's hardware autodetect soon.

zfnI'd be more than happy to throw a donation your way or something like that if you had a donation link set up, but I'd rather that be a one-time payment rather than a monthly fee for exclusive benefits.

Yeah, and that's fine. You'll be able to donate and get one month of the benefits.

zfnWhat sort of costs would be involved in setting something like this up?

Machine learning infrastructure.

ZetosBesides what zfn said, if the idea to use premium is to fine-tune based on hardware and internet, I believe most people would require it the same way some use bp.tf's premium search. They subscribe for a month, get the info they need and just cancel the subscription. Unless they're a PC junkie that frequently upgrades stuff, a one-time check is all they need. Sure, there could be "future updates to those recommendations as the service learns more", but if people feel like they're missing out on something, they might cater to something else. Or just stick to whatever they can get for free.

I'm not concerned about people doing that since they're paying for a month of service, so they get a month of service. If they want to support the config and get the service for longer, then they will subscribe for longer. I don't think it's a big deal if people find themselves happy with one month or choose to only get it once in a while to update themselves when they need to.

ZetosI feel like a donation page would be more objective and not hinder whatever optimization the app can provide. Albeit I guess it'd raise less money.

It wouldn't be hindering anything the app could provide as it wouldn't be feasible to maintain this as a non-paid service.

zfnWhile the whole machine learning thing sounds pretty cool, I think it's clear from the survey that the majority of players aren't interested in paying for a config.

All I want in a config is to remove as much visual clutter as possible, and a nice performance boost, which I can already do thanks to the efforts yourself and others before you have put in. Paying a monthly fee just to "fine-tune specific values" just seems a little unnecessary and over the top in my opinion.

Yeah that's why I had the survey. But keep in mind that it's not just fine tuning values for your specific system configuration but also giving you recommendations on what quality levels to choose based on your specified quality/performance preference and it gives you estimates for the performance impact of different quality levels.

Also, the only thing you subscribe to is the service, not the values you obtain from it. So you could totally subscribe for just a month to get the optimal values and adjust quality levels with the recommendation engine, but you wouldn't get future updates to those recommendations as the service learns more.

However, this is primarily just supposed to be a donation (which a lot of people expressed wanting to do), so I think it's good to consider that instead of just the raw benefit.

#8 What config right now gives the highest fps? in Q/A Help

You should be able to adjust and add whatever you want using the custom.cfg and you're able to make those changes without having to redo them every time the config updates.

#6 What config right now gives the highest fps? in Q/A Help

Well isn't it just one VPK? And the comfig.cfg file has everything you need. https://github.com/mastercoms/mastercomfig/blob/release/config/mastercomfig/cfg/comfig.cfg

#4 What config right now gives the highest fps? in Q/A Help

vulcMastercoms also edited comanglias config to make comangliacoms. It gives me about the same fps as mastercoms and it’s easier to manage

I never edited Comanglia's config. Sage made comangliacoms. Also what do you find hard to manage with mastercomfig?

Don't exec autoexec. That executes mastercomfig all over again. Make a separate binds.cfg or something if you'd like to have base settings.

As for AELai, I'm not sure why yours is not working. Perhaps there's an alias that's causing a loop? Could you show me all your alias definitions (like vmflip).

Today I am announcing mastercomfig community. A whole new way to create, experiment and share. Coming soon.

With mastercomfig community, you'll be able to share custom presets, scripts and settings (globally and per-class)!

With the framework from mastercomfig community, you'll also be able to sync your mastercomfig across devices, with profile options to make sure you sync the right settings to the right devices.

Finally, I'd like to announce mastercomfig+! It's in the early stages of development, but I'd like to hear from you about a premium, subscription-based version of mastercomfig!

Survey: https://goo.gl/forms/oG2nVpvNvZVQcwOf1

Once you've taken the mastercomfig+ survey, if you'd like to give more thoughts about it, feel free to share them here. I'm also available on Steam and Discord.

What's your hardware, config, and do you have fullscreen optimizations enabled?

#1495 mastercomfig - fps/customization config in Customization

No extra models is included in the config but will be an option later.

Make sure you're looking at the source code for the beta branch. MSAA is preferred over CSAA, so any AA level that can be accomplished by MSAA will be used instead of CSAA. The only thing you can't achieve is 16x MSAA so for that CSAA is used at 2x with 8x MSAA. If you prefer the look of CSAA, the custom options coming soon should help you set the values you prefer.

More information to help you choose a module level, inckuding visuals, is coming eventually.

I can add a button to reset module level choices.
