Hey All,

What is your config file look like? What binds do you use? Can you share your secret/helpful setup tips for newbies?

Thanks.

@MICHU solid radar - says invalid command
also @ReSeT when I set cl_cmdrate /cl_updaterate to 100/more than 100, I start seeing a drop in choke. How do I fix this?

Thanks.

there is no such thing as cl_rate
There is rate xxxxx
cl_cmdrate xxxx
cl_updaterate xxxx
The rest is how it should be as a steam player :p

If you want more than 100fps , you have to :
fps_override "1"
fps_max "xxx" Youre number instead of xxx

When I set this, I see a drop in loss numbers (net graph 3). I will try setting a lower number.


Also, guys, can you share a config file that you are using? Would love to give it a try.

For FPS, i always found it odd to play with more than 100 (99.5 actually), besides my screen supports 165hz. In general the gold source engine was made for 100fps max.
