Hi guize
I’ve been using the config for a long time. I’ve chosen the high frames instead of max, cuz as a medic when I uber with max frames all I see is; well… nothing.
But I’ve been having difficulties with high frames lately. I usually get 120fps but sometimes (every 15-20 minutes) I get 20-30 fps, then it gets back to 120 in a couple of minutes. I don’t know whatever could cause this. Has anyone had the same or similar issue ? Or is there a way to avoid the shitty uber graphics whilst using max frames?
Thx in advance mates

do oyu have a antivir program?
maybe it checks you whole hd every 20min..

Yo!
Well I think the 15-20 minute lag is possibly caused by hard disk usage. Would make sense if an antivirus started scanning or if your hard drive has not been defragmented for a long time. You could try adding the steam appcache stats folder to your antivirus exceptions as well as it updates very frequently which causes a lot of antiviruses to keep scanning it.

As for the ‘shitty ubers’ the command line you need to check in the config is mat_specular. You set the value to 1 instead of zero and you’re good to go. The only issue is that using this option on direct X 8 will cause strange fire textures on badges and hats.

Hope this helped ;)

EDIT: Flippin heck everyone beat me to it xD

Are you sure? I play with specular set to 1 on dx81 and I dont have this problem anymore. Iirc they fixed it.

I still have fire textures with latest update..

And that my dear chap is why we continue to use mat_specular 0

Sorry, I was banned until Valentines day because the ETF2L admins wanted to give me something to do tonight.

mat_motion_blur_enabled 0 // Disabled by default in v2.005 onwards
mat_motion_blur_forward_enabled 0
mat_motion_blur_strength

What is the optimal settings or what can i change in order to test the Strengh i want on it ?

Some of the motion blur can’t be controlled by mat_motion_blur_strength. You’d be better just having it on or off, it’s not very configurable.

Also is there a way to make the graphics even higher?

You won’t get any higher graphics from setting anything else. You may end up using more processing power, but you’ll see absolutely no difference.

Yes. It would be wonderful if people could, instead of seeking advice when they could just try it and see, just try it and see.
