0.0.2

NOTE: This release is no longer compatible with mastercomfig. Please do not use mastercomfig or any other TF2 config in combination with this version or later versions.

• Optimized file system and various other systems by enabling Retail mode (was not enabled as claimed in 0.0.1) and Cert mode
• Greatly reduced sound latency, by up to 12 milliseconds on most configurations
  • Async sound mixing thread now mixes every 7ms with very tight timing
  • Eliminated mixahead and sound shift delay
  • Disabled extra sound updates
• Updated various networking cvars to be more up to date:
  • Client and server update rates are now 66
  • Client and server update rates are enforced to be the same
  • Default interp is now 0.030303
  • Default rate is now 196608
  • Minimum rate is now 16000
  • Max rate is now 786432
  • SourceTV rate increased to default client rate, snapshot rate increased to 33, SourceTV now transmits all entities, delay is now 10, and delays map changes until broadcast is complete
  • Set tighter replication settings from CS:GO to combat cheaters and unfair advantages in low quality networks
  • Disabled packet drop limiter feature, which made networking even worse in high loss scenarios
• Allowed usage of dsp_off 1 to disable DSP processing
• Added con_filter_enable 3 which completely disables console output
• Optimized default/common timescale case
• Enabled z buffer light cache
  • Automatically disabled for a map if there is not enough memory, instead of crashing the game
• Fully enable async model cache
• Force disabled glow outlines for now until #1 is fixed
• Dynamic models have their textures unloaded on death rather than every frame
• Increased default fps_max to 400.
  • Minimum value for fps_max is now 49
• Increased default FOV to 90, and max FOV to 120
• Fixed the data cache allocating too much memory
• Increased maximum heap size (used for hunk and datacache) from 256MB to 576MB
• Increased hunk size from 48MB to 64MB (to support z buffer light cache on maps with many lights)
• Enabled buffered filesystem
• Allow for up to 64MB reads at a time, rather than 16MB
• Unlocked fx_drawimpactdebris, fx_drawimpactdust, fx_drawmetalspark, which can be set to 0 to disable bullet impact particle effects
• Set raw mouse input by default
• Slightly improved particle performance
• Improved particle retire cost performance
• Unlocked cl_particle_retire_cost, so that you can set it to 0.0001 on low end machines
• Added cl_ragdoll_disable, which when set to 1 completely disables all death effects from spawning at all
• Added tf_fx_blood, which when set to 0 completely disables all blood splash impact effects from spawning at all
• Disabled match HUD by default now until it is fixed
• Optional thread pools (replay and youtube thread pools) are now not initialized until they are actually used by the replay or YouTube system. This prevents 5 idle threads from running during common gameplay which never uses replays or YouTube API.
• Fixed a meaningless error in console when using +connect on the command line
• Unlocked tf_impactwatertimeenable and tf_impactwatertime, which limit the amount of water splashes from bullets. Set default to on, and an interval of 0.1 seconds.
• Improved start up batch script behavior
• Removed DX8 support for 2005 and older GPUs
• Removed Pix event and present stats from main shader API device functions
• Removed 8ms busy waiting form async texture reading, to event based
• Increased default jigglebone framerate cutoff from 20 to 66
• Enabled persistent LZMA buffer by default
• Disabled unused download list log feature
• Disabled async sound loading spew on blocking
• Enabled parallel snapshot sending
