#9 TF2 update for 6/7/18 in TF2 General Discussion

New cvars point to what was fixed:

sv_max_dropped_packets_to_process        : 10       :                  : Max dropped packets to process. Lower settings prevent lagged players from simulating too far in the past. Setting of 0 disables cap.

Fixes timeshift hack

sv_max_usercmd_move_magnitude            : 1000     : , "sv"           : Maximum move magnitude that can be requested by client.

Fixes players moving too fast (most of the time due to accumulating movement from lagging)

sv_quota_stringcmdspersecond             : 40       :                  : How many string commands per second clients are allowed to submit, 0 to disallow all string commands

Fixes a DoS attack

sv_signon_dos_disconnect                 : 20       :                  : Number of extra signon state confirmations required to disconnect a misbehaving client.

Fixes another DoS attack

They also changed tf_autobalance_dead_candidates_maxtime from 20 seconds to 15 seconds, which means it will wait 5 seconds less for people to die before forcibly switching autobalance candidates.

Twiggyso what's a screen overlay?

A screen overlay is a texture that is put on your whole screen. Think jarate or afterburn. This command was used by server mods to do some screen effects, but some of them tried to clear the screen using 0 which didn't do anything, instead of using off. Now, 0 also works so the mods don't have to be updated to properly clear the screen.

They also added some GDPR stuff to the protocol and added more rate limits internally (to prevent DoS attacks).

#1416 mastercomfig - fps/customization config in Customization
mattTMy launch options: -novid -nojoy -nosteamcontroller -noff -softparticlesdefaultoff -reuse

I'm on dxlevel 95 currently, but I've tried switching to 92 and 98 and the problem persists

I have r_pixelfog 1 in my custom.cfg, but it didn't seem to change anything when I added it

Could you launch TF2 with the -condebug +cvarlist launch options? Then send me your console.log in the tf folder.

Comangliawhat does -noassert do?

Disables a few debug systems.

brycewhen do you think it'll be out, or is it something like you literally don't have internet for a week at a time?

I'm expecting it to be out about 3 days after this Internet outage is resolved and I am expecting it to be resolved on Thursday. So if everything goes to plan, June 10th.

It's very possible that mastercomfig 7 will not be releasing on June 7 due to an Internet outage. Sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused you.

#1405 mastercomfig - fps/customization config in Customization

Today I am releasing mastercomfig 6.8.0b1. This is a prerelease which has extensive configuration changes that need to be tested in preparation for their release in mastercomfig 7.

I would love to get your feedback on the performance of the config to ensure mastercomfig 7's release is as smooth as possible.

zfnDoes the "-particles" launch option still exist for TF2?

It doesn't do anything for TF2.

#13 How true is this? in Videos

The unity example in the video is very misleading because most PC games factor in delta time when running updates or run at a fixed rate. The beneficial effects of it come from polling multiple times, leading to higher responsiveness, not faster movement.

sageis triple buffer worse than normal vsync
i had that thing enabled as a kid bcuz i thought it soudned cool

yes, it has 3 separate frames instead of 2 so theres more delay from what your gpu last rendered

also Dota 2 has a an experimental option to reorder logic to prevent latency from vsync: https://dev.dota2.com/showthread.php?t=184108

#8 Audio roaring and cutting out in Q/A Help

Probably raise your snd_mixahead slightly and make sure you enable async sound

snd_async_fullyasync 1
snd_mix_async 1

(also I'd recommend using my config :) https://mastercomfig.com/)

#1401 mastercomfig - fps/customization config in Customization
gemmdoes the ultra preset take advantage of any sv_cheats 1 commands? just wondering since i was using it as a casting config rather than a playing config

no, but I'm considering adding some

EevoveWon't 240 fps have an effect on your refresh rate? For instance if you have 144hz or higher, you should stay on at least 286 fps for it to be optimal?

For 144, I would recommend 288.
