    think valve capped the limit themeselves :D L4D always had 60FPS to start with here so yeah doesn't realy matter :D only anoying thing is the stutter wich neather i nor valve know where it's comming frome and occurs on random systems :roll: so it's not FPS drops, not ISP and nothing seems to be wrong with my pc (wich i capable enough to run) even on low setting it has the same stutter. or low settings and sound disabled it stutters :cry:

    i did notice my game freeze's on the buffbanner bug :roll: the one where it's active on round start (and sometimes even when it's active when i'm near during a round )

    Had the thing with the mini crits today too, looks like something's really buggy.
    However, with every update my fps went lower too, so it might have been random.
    atm my fps are in the heat of the battle below 30 which makes playing (and especially sniping) nearly impossible.
    So either every update fucked up the performance more or I got better so I now actually notice the drops. :/

    Well, perhaps it's just time to buy a new PC, although mine isn't that bad. ^^

    I managed to get a positive kpd with only 9 fps for a long time, also with sniper ;) It sucks donkeyballs and you can't win a real sniper battle with a good other sniper. but a heavy is slow enough for those low amount of frames :lol:

    yeah found the damn thing that set my FPS to 60 max (stupid idiot that i am haha) it was a the vertical sync thingy (dunno what it does, except for setting max fps to 60 hahahaha) i read somewhere that this can reduce stutter but no luck yet :doubt: hope is found something before i ever buy a new pc hahahaha. now i wanted to instal linux (yes LINUX!!! :D) but seeing that valve hasnt yet ported the source engine to linux i'm retinking (it IS possible to play but you need to run some programs to emulate the windows invirement)

    *wishfull thinking* valve will port TF2 to linux soon and everyone loging on in TF2 on linux gets a penguin-hat :lol:

    or even more epic... the 10th class will be a penguin :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: :!:

    vsinc = it limits the graphicscard to use the same framerate as the times your monitor makes a "picture"
    As it was capped at 60fps, your screen is at 60hz, thus 60 pictures a second. More fps are not shown on your monitor! Problem when it's off. Is that top and bottom on your monitor, if u have 120 fps, might not be the same "picture" anymore also known as screentearing.
    example of tearing: [​IMG]

    I have noticed some stutter in tf2 to now. but just a slight one now and then. Not irritating

    I have 170-210 fps, and no screen tearing... never checked really why, but suspect that the DVI connection has to do with it. On analog/D-Sub vga connection it will tear for sure anyway.

    and the example screeny cannot be made in TF2... cos a screenshot is a actual FULL frame in TF2, so no tearing is possible in it. you'd have to use a external program for it... and I'm not even sure you can achieve it to be show up in it. Most likely is a camera, but that camera might cause it itself, it gives no proof of the actual screen. Great example tho.

    well it's gotten even worse... instead of 1 sec stutter, my screen goes black and soundloops for a good 5 seconds and the returnes to the game (in wich i died offcourse because of this stupid shit)

    in a full server this happens with my fps about half way a map:
    Spawnroom: nothing seems to be wrong got about 100-250 fps.

    I walk out of the spawnroom into the clear battlefield, only teammates around me, I've got about 60 fps.

    I face an enemy and we shoot at each other, my fps drops to around 20.

    An enemy gets jarated or there is a buff banner deployed and there are a lot of minikritz, my fps goes to 9.

    I don't get it! I've got a brand new computer which runs L4D2 and COD5 with everything on high like a dream. But it can't handle TF2. It doesn't matter if I play with settings on high or low, and changing resolutions only makes it worse. :S I don't get it

    What happened on LethalZone serverfps? It's 30-60 now and sounds ridiculously low for a server? On servers I've usually played it goes in hundreds.. and if I remember correctly it used to be like that on LZ servers also.

    Also there seems to be more lagging than usual.

    Any comments from admins?

    PS. I have no experience actually running servers so.. just curious if fpslimiter is placed and why.

    Seems to be only ALL MAPS #1 problem.
    The fps on second server was ~470 when I took a quick look.
