A moderate, consistent framerate is much more // desirable than a variable but sometimes high framerate. A common // misconception is that if any more frames are generated than your monitor can // display, they are useless. This is wrong -- frames are used for much more // than mere display, and affect the way the game feels well past your // refresh rate. // // This FPS cap should *always* be set to a value higher than `cl_cmdrate' in // any case, or the discrepancy between clientside frame generation and frames // to be sent to the server will no doubt cause you many a headache, especially // when it comes down to hit registration. Other than that, I recommend // for everyone to use the value `132' (2*66), as long as you can generally // keep that value stable without regular drops. // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------cl_showfps 1 // Show unsmoothed FPS meter //fps_max 132 // Commented due to 2011-09-02 update causing jittering when fps i s capped for some fps_max 0 // // // // // // // // // // // // // // // // // // // // // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------Net settings ---------------------------------------------------------------------------Whilst net settings perhaps aren't an integral part of an FPS config, they are a fact of life in competitive TF2, and as such, they are included here. A common question I am asked -- what defines whether a good connection is good or bad? Mostly personal preference. If you're not willing to make the choice, try both and see which is better for you. Generally, meeting both of the following conditions would classify it as a good connection: - Ping of
