ITS ABOUT FUCKING TIME VALVE. Hopefully it scales well with quad core as well :)

 

Steam today announced the addition of multi-core rendering to their hit game Team Fortress 2. This feature is in testing mode right now and can be enabled through the options->video->advanced menu.

 

Here’s the official updates

 

Updates to Team Fortress 2 have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The specific changes include:

 

Added Multicore Rendering

 

* This initial release is aimed at testing compatibility, so the option is OFF by default

* To turn it on, go to the Options->Video->Advanced dialog, and check the “Multicore Rendering†option

 

Other Changes

 

* Several performance improvements to decals and client bone/flex setup

* A variety of alt-tab and mode switch fixes

* Improvements to the way the engine initializes surround sound, fixing some specific hardware cases

* Fixed a crash on exit in Vista 64

Thats not an AMD problem, thats a L4D is gay option. When i had my core 2 duo with multirendering on my PC would freeze up every 10 seconds in game. Doesn't do it on quads for some reason though...

We had a awesome server, great map rotation and spawn times. Problem is no-one took the time to arrange a date and time for all the HG members to hop on so we could get it populated.
