Gummy Bear AKA Unknown Person Advice on FPS

Recommended Posts

Let me start off by saying this is an awesome script for left for dead 2. Of course I found it on the net and it works like a charm for people with more than 4 gigs of ram and a good decent video card. I did set an attachment for it and you may download has no viruses or you can just copy and paste it. into a notepad and name it autoexec whatever floats your boat.

// INTRODUCTION

// *******************************************************************

// Kaizen's L4D2 performance config is designed to boost your frame

// rates (FPS) while maintaining the best possible graphics experience.

// It also attempts to improve hit registration (i.e. the accuracy of

// your shots) by optimizing network settings, improve the visibility

// of the crosshair, and increase brightness so you can see enemies

// better.

//

// Unfortunately, as was the case with the original L4D, L4D2

// restricts most of the Source Engine's console commands. Many of the

// best performance options can only accessed via the in game menu's.

// Feel free to tweak any of the settings to your liking, descriptions

// of what commands do are provided.

//

// If you have any suggestions, questions or other feedback please

// visit www.nextlevelgamer.com and post on the forums.

//

//

// Enjoy!

//

//

// INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

// *******************************************************************

// Place this file (autoexec.cfg) into your Left 4 Dead 2 CFG folder,

// similar to the path below:

//

// <install folder>\Steam\SteamApps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\cfg\

//

//

//

// STEAM LAUNCH OPTIONS

// *******************************************************************

//

// For an additional performance boost, customize your command line

// launch options for Left 4 Dead 2 in Steam before starting the game

//

// Setting Launch Options

// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

// 1. Go to "My Games" in Steam

// 2. Right click "Left 4 Dead 2" and select "Properties"

// 3. Select "Set launch options..." and enter the following:

//

// -w 1680 -console -refresh 120 -heapsize 1572864 -high -noforcemaccel -noforcemparms -noipx -nojoy

//

//

// Customizing Launch Options

// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

// -w 1680 Sets resolution to 1680x1050; for 16:10 widescreen monitors - tweak as necessary

// -console Enables developer console; so you can press ~ to enter commands

// -novid Disables the intro movie, speeds up game on start-up (doesn't seem to work in L4D2 yet though)

// -refresh 120 Forces 120hz/120fps refresh rate on monitor (if available)

// -heapsize 1572864 Allocates RAM for the game; see table below for calculating optimal values

// -high Forces high CPU priority

// -noforcemaccel Forces desktop mouse acceleration settings

// -noforcemparms Forces desktop mouse button configuration

// -noipx Disables IPX network detection, local LAN (slight boot time improvement; you may need to remove this for LAN parties)

// -nojoy Disables detection of 3rd party gamepads and controllers (slight boot time improvement)

//

// Heapsize Setting

// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

// Modify the heapsize command to allocate 50% of the RAM you have

// in your computer (NOT video card memory!) in bytes.

//

// Formula = RAM (in GB) * 1024 * 1024 / 2

// 1GB -heapsize 524288

// 2GB -heapsize 1048576

// 3GB+ -heapsize 1572864

//

// Since L4D2 is a 32-bit application it is believed to be capped at

// a maximum of 3GB of RAM. Setting heapsize to a value beyond this

// may crash the game.

//

//

// For a detailed guide on Steam launch options, refer to:

// http://www.nextlevelgamer.com/counter-strike-source-launch-options/

//

//

//

// Removal Instructions:

// *******************************************************************

// Don't like the config? Simply delete autoexec.cfg and config.cfg

// from Steam\SteamApps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\cfg\

// Depending on your Steam Cloud settings, you may need to redefine

// your key bindings and personal preferences after this.

//

// Note: - Brightness too high? Set mat_monitorgamma_tv_enabled to 0

// - Prefer default crosshair? Set cl_crosshair_dynamic 1

// Props

func_break_max_pieces "0" // default 15; Removes debris

 

wait so the higher, the less debris fades away? I'm setting mine to 50000000!!!

 

 

 

ANYONE know if there is a command so all props/dead zombies don't fade away after dying?
