GUIDE: Optimizing FPS in CS:S

[rebL]

Hey,

I bring to you a simple fps config for CS:S, which has many commands from this steam guide: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1700892375

Credits to: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198158411342/

 

This config adds the following changes to his autoexec.cfg:

cl_ragdoll_physics_enable         "0" // added, removes dead players from the ground

g_ragdoll_fadespeed             "0" // added
g_ragdoll_lvfadespeed            "0" // added

mat_queue_mode                          "2" // changed, enables multicore support

r_pixelfog                              "1" // changed, disables some fog
ragdoll_sleepaftertime            "0" // added, removes dead player models almost instantly

 

This is the config right now:

echo "Fps config loaded"

 

Hopefully everybody already have good computers to run CS:S but still who doesn't love to have even more fps?

To use the config:

-Simply copy the autoexec.cfg file provided below into your Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Source/cstrike/cfg folder.

 

I also recommend the usage of this launch options for CSS:

 -console -novid -nojoy

 

To set the launch options do:

Go to Library -> Right-Click Properties on CSS -> Set launch options.

 

-console

Will enable the in-game console.

-novid

Disables some startup videos/movies.

-nojoy

Disables the support for joystick (Only set if you don't use a joystick!)
