Is this not working for anyone else? It's worked for me for a long time, and then today it all of the sudden doesn't.

I've changed nothing in my setup so I wonder if Valve broke something.

It seems to load successfully according to console, I just can't get the outlines to come on despite having glow_outline_effect_enable 1 set.

I can see how it could be interpreted like that, so sorry for the miscommunication on my part. The important point I am trying to get across is that it is more efficient (for storage, backup, and migration purposes) to just use the custom folder now. That's why it was made. It consolidates everything. It's beautiful. Valve loves us.

That's weird because it is working for me right now when I try. You must be doing it differently from me. Are you trying to do this after you launch tf2? Do it all before you start tf2 that way you make sure you're not editing, saving, and execing the wrong files.

crespi: I never said the root cfg folder doesn't work fine for cfgs. Obviously it works. The reason putting all your cfgs into the new Steampipe custom folder is a good idea is for consolidation purposes. Efficiency. If you're going to have custom things like addons, huds, cfgs, etc, it makes sense to utilize the new system and just put them all in one place- the new custom folder.

Sure you have the option to still use the old way, but you're not utilizing the new efficient Steampipe changes.

What do you mean "stopped loading"?

Yes. For instance the path to your class cfg's will be "tf\custom\customcfgs\cfg\medic.cfg" etc.

Here's a visual:

Edit: For further visual clarification here is what your tf\cfg (the old place for cfgs) can now look like.

Note there are no class cfgs at all in here. That's because TF2 doesn't look for them there anymore.

The thing a lot of people still don't understand about the post-Steampipe update is that you can literally delete every class config file out of your tf/cfg folder. The only place you want (read: the only place TF2 actually looks for) your autoexec.cfg and class specific configs (medic.cfg, etc) are in your tf/custom/customcfg/cfg folder. I find doing this confuses me a lot less and gets rid of the clutter files. You literally do not need any class config file or autoexec file in your tf/cfg folder. Only config.cfg

Thanks guys. Worked. So weird.

Has anyone else experienced this? It happens on multiple maps. For instance you can walk entirely through the big rock on gravelpit..

Help pls..

RAM is probably the hardware I am least familiar with in regards to purchasing. I built a computer a few years back and bought this RAM:

I often notice my computer using nearly all of it when I'm multitasking really hard, so I've decided it's time to upgrade. Can anyone tell me if this would be a good, modern choice?

The only other RAM related thread I could find was marisa's thread from awhile back. Do yourself a favor and don't look that one up.

oops slipped by

This is something I encounter daily.

Whoa, that guy looks exactly like a young John Malkovich!

I have had Aero disabled for about a week now and it does indeed fix the video lag. However it just pisses me off that I can't use Aero and dual monitors.
