Would it be possible to have steam start a script (not a tf2 script) before tf2 starts so as to check for updates to fps configs, huds and 2d radars?

I am lazy. :(

Just launch it through a batch file, and queue up the stuff you want to do before that.

I always look for any previous topic about the issue, and I didn’t find anything.
Don’t be an ass, TviQ. If you know where I can find the original topic, link it.

@Chris. Yeah, obviously, but I’m already used to starting tf2 through steam. I want to continue doing that. :P

So create a shortcut to the batch file in Steam and give it the TF2 icon, put it in your favourites and remove the original TF2 from favourites. Done.

how on earth would a cronjob help you with this?

and yes, VAC would be mad as fuck

Wow, if you are so fucking lazy that you cba with looking at the forums for 5 mins then i got the answer default settings :)

tviq so mad :(

but yeah batch file or scheduled task would do
you could even make client tf2 plugin that does it for you if you’re really bored :D
i dont see why it would matter whether this is done before or after you launch tf2 (so long as its before you connect to a server it should be fine, right?)
