Anyone else had any issues or heard of any since the update?
Basically after the video of the valve man with the vent on his bonce shows up my game just quits.
If i do -novid then after the loading game steam message goes away it dosnt do anything.
I’ve done a check for corrupt files in steam it was fine, so re-installed at the same issue occurs.
I’ve googled the problwm but there are plenty of threads reguarding it just no answers ¬_¬.
Anyone see anything similar?
Have you tried to wipe all your user settings for TF2? Back up your configs, demos, maps etc then let it rebuild the steam/steamapps//team fortress 2/ folder. (Easiest is to rename the team fortress 2 folder)
I had the same thing a few months back, copied all my configs and the large gcf-files, uninstalled steam and deleted the steam-folder, removed HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareValve from registry, reinstalled steam, copied back the .gcf-files before starting it, installed tf2, ran it and quit, copied back my cfg-files (but atleast default-values was written by the first start, I found out some values will not be created with certain variables set — especially mat_ values), entered the huge command-line and ran it a second time to let it write directx 8.1 values, quit the game again, removed the dxlevel command (since it will not do you any good a second time and will only keep resetting your resolution, it writes the correct values and does not remove them after you’ve removed it from the command line).
Started it a final third time and everything was set.
It’s so quick and easy to get valve-games running properly.
Steam > File > Backup Games > Backup TF2 to Hard drive, set custom file size so it doesn’t split it (make it massive) > Right click tf2 in steam > properties > delete local content
Go to backup files > double click exe file > reinstall tf2
Done
Unless you reinstalled, wasn’t sure from yer post, in which case, the above posts. :P

My fps dropped by over 25% after the update, sweet.
try -novid as a start parameter for tf2
edit: excuse my failing

Read before you post :)

Turns out my res was set to high (it shouldn’t be)
The “EDAD” or “ADAD” or somthing of my screen is fucked apperntly, its a Samsung Syncmaster T220 and it would indicate its forgotten what type of screen it is and will need to be flashed or somthing? How lame. I’ll contact samsung.
EDID! thats it.

Since the update, I have this 5/6 seconds of fps freeze every 20/30/40 minutes. After the freeze, If I’m not allready dead… It’s all back to normal again. Still… this came up directly after the update.
And they should also fix the crab steam srv thing issue that removes the new weapons from your class… I had to retry 5 times in 2 matches yesterday… I love points so I really hate to retry :(
half the time after around 20 mins in a server i cant use custom weapons like kritzkrieg
Yeah I’ve had the same problems as the post, but one, above.. never had any FPS issues until this update and now it keeps unaccountably divebombing on me :<
