Could you please add me on Steam and share the actual file with me?

The addons are checked based on which preset you select.

It will help, yes, since you have an iGPU.

For textures_low, yes. For lighting_medium, no. You can just use mat_filterlightmaps 1.

The default value is 1.0. The value is determined from the aspect ratio and the zoom multiplier of the Sniper Rifle.

You shouldn't have a ZIP folder. The mastercomfig VPKs should be in tf/custom, and your cfg files should be in tf/cfg.

I wanted to provide greater customizability for the config. Some people wanted no soundscapes and no pyroland for other presets besides Low and Very Low, but I knew some people would have not welcomed those changes. Now, these options are separated from these presets and can be selected for any preset.

As for No Extra Models, it is not ticked by default for Ultra. Again, I wanted to provide more choice for users.

I've seen a 20FPS boost on most dedicated graphics cards with textures_high, though it may help on integrated graphics. You'll need around 3.4GB of free RAM for TF2, and around 1.6GB of free vRAM. This usually means you need around 8GB of total system RAM and 2GB of total vRAM. I honestly couldn't tell for sure what caused this performance boost, but it probably has something to do with the mip scaling system they use for lower texture qualities.

You can use textures_low to get rid of the pixelated textures, and lighting_medium to get rid of the pixelated lighting. The visibility bug that you will notice the most is dark lighting on characters on some map areas, which makes their team hard to distinguish sometimes.

VPKs are used to improve loading times and make installing the config easier.

I don't think that's within the scope of my config to customize explosion effects.

Impact effects are already disabled with comnmands.

What are the contents of your class cfgs?

Hi, net_maxcleartime is set at 4 by default so the Source Engine uses rate instead for clear time calculations. net_maxcleartime is basically an upper limit on the time delay between packets uploaded calculated from rate. Past the max rate of 1048576 bytes per second, you will need to set the upper limit to an effective value in order to force a higher effective rate. 1288 is the maximum packet size that can be sent in Source, so this is used to get the time needed to send a packet at a higher effective rate. Of course, this has a side effect of having smaller packets being sent a slower effective rate, but the safety here is needed to ensure large packets don't get sent faster than something your Internet connection can handle.

net_splitpacket_maxrate was the rate + 1 because I wanted to slightly bias the cap towards sending split packets that limited the overall rate if too many were sent.

It was then changed to be equal to rate because it didn't make much of a difference at +1, and larger values would actually be detrimental, since it would lead split packets to hogging the rate, especially in cases where many split packets were sent in a short time, usually with net_splitrate being set to high values.

This was still a problem with net_splitpacket_maxrate being equal to rate, so it was set to half to ensure split packets had an effective cap before they contributed to the overall rate limit.

Also, I would recommend using the upload rate tool for calculations, as it is easier than doing it yourself. https://mastercoms.github.io/mastercomfig/upload

The no preset VPK did not disable network related modules. You can add disabling them easily enough within your own modules.cfg by following the pattern that was done for all the other modules.

No short circuit? I want my balanced beach ball.

I've seen confusion with the previous names as well, and I think having the names be non specific and the descriptions actually describe the presets will work out slightly better.

and thanks!

6.7.0 released with a reworked modules system, new addons, renamed presets, an enhanced download page, bug fixes and documentation updates.

Please reread the Modules wiki page introduction for instructions on how to use the new modules system. https://github.com/mastercoms/mastercomfig/wiki/Modules

Also, if you're confused about all the new preset names, you can check the changelog to figure out what was renamed to what. https://github.com/mastercoms/mastercomfig/releases/tag/6.7.0

(also wooo, 200 upfrags!! thanks guys.)

It was actually this patch: http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=14353

if (pOwner->m_nButtons & IN_ATTACK2) DoClassSpecialSkill()

DoClassSpecialSkill() is already called in ItemBusyFrame().

Could someone explain the bug to me? I'm not entirely sure what it is, as I haven't been able to reproduce it from what I've read on these forums. I can detonate stickies while switching and while reloading the grenade launcher.

The push issue was because Nightfall and Pipeline don't have setup time on a certain stage, so the fix where you can't do an objective during setup time was applied to the whole round for those maps.

A similar bug happened to these maps when the Uber build rate was set to be faster during setup time.

Don't use -swapcores or -full. Try removing -limitvsconst and see if it's actually doing anything for you. Also try the same thing with -nouserclip.

What launch options are you all using?

sv_allow_point_servercommand always

It disables color correction entities: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Color_correction_(entity) so that color correction can only be affected by color correction volumes.

Color correction affects FPS very very minimally. So it depends on if you want more natural colors or not.

Hi, I would remove the following lines from your custom.cfg:

snd_async_fullyasync 1                 
snd_mixahead 0.1
snd_mix_async 1 

also, you can remove these lines if you use the no tutorial addon:

cl_hud_playerclass_playermodel_showed_confirm_dialog 1
tf_explanations_backpackpanel 1
tf_show_preset_explanation_in_class_loadout 0
tf_show_taunt_explanation_in_class_loadout 0
tf_explanations_charinfo_armory_panel 1
tf_explanations_charinfopanel 1
tf_explanations_craftingpanel 1
tf_explanations_discardpanel 1
tf_explanations_store 1
