What do you mean by this?

cl_ragdoll_fade_time is the offset from the current time that the ragdoll will begin fading. Negative values just ensure that the fade out happens immediately.

It is useful for quick comparisons of different quality levels, especially if you bind up and down to a key. Even without a binding, entering the same command into console is still easier.

Yes, I believe many people noticed that, as well as an issue where textures seemed to have steps of decreasing quality at certain distance intervals.

It was removed in 6.5.4 since disk performance optimizations were unified in that version. Remove it, as it is outdated and does not run anymore.

I would also recommend reading the changelogs for each version to know if there's an extra upgrade step.

I'm testing out some settings for ragdolls to avoid ragdolls from not being cleared properly.

I think they're pretty useful for debugging and choosing a module easily. Could you explain how it adds clutter?

It doesn't help performance, but many people have said that bilinear filtering is distracting and that they're used to trilinear. Max performance has bilinear set, though.

6.5.8 released with bug fixes, new addons and customization improvements.

I don't think there is one at the moment, but I think it's only natural for an extensive config framework like mastercomfig to evolve and expand to new games eventually.

Don't leak your IP. Blur out the 3rd hostname.

6.5.7 released with performance improvements and documentation updates.

and zfn, no

You should try out the older version to see if it's really because of a config update. If you get around the same performance as you get with the latest version, then it's an issue caused by something else we will have to figure out.

Well no, this is just for troubleshooting to figure out why you're getting less FPS. If we know which version you got good FPS in, we can then isolate what change could have reduced your FPS.

It was very fun to watch! :)

comp shouldn't have blocky textures, it was probably some lingering issue with your config that should be fixed now that you set everything up. But I guess compquality is fine too, it just has a bit higher quality lighting and effects.

6.5.6 released with installation process improvements and bug fixes.

Did you update the config at all? I might have messed something up for your system in a later version.

Also, it is fine to customize the config with personal settings.

Yes, it includes some other custom files that aren't in the autoexec.cfg.

I'm working on a few gradual improvements to the config that should make the list of VPKs more organized and better explained.

Since your custom.cfg is running, then mastercomfig would have to be running. Not sure why the console output is not there, though.

Also, I watched your VOD and I think comp would work better for you than compquality, since compquality enables shadows and some other extra effects while comp disables those and does not have blocky textures.

Finally, shaders on high runs better on modern mid to high end systems, which is why the config had it set to high. I would recommend comparing low and high and seeing which one works best for you!

Thank you for the kind words and also, to answer your question that you asked on your stream, yes, I'm a she :)

Yeah that could be beneficial, but keep in mind that the generator already takes 80% of your upload rate.

That's unfortunate, as it improves performance. I'll comment it out.
