    Hello guys, I have an problem with tf2. I'm getting lags on servers. I noticed this in the console:
    Code:
    Particles: maximum verts exceeded: 54726 verts, 79380 indexes
    Too many simultaneously active particles!
    Particles: maximum verts exceeded: 55434 verts, 80424 indexes
    Too many simultaneously active particles!
    It is full of these lines. Happens a lot and I dont know what to do ...
    Any ideas?

    Did you install any custom particles? Like from gamebanana for example.
    Sometimes they are too cpu heavy (if not tweaked properly) and can cause crazy fps drops.

    Which map did you play on when this happens? In some cases the particles from the map in addition to the particles from weapons (flamethrower, medi gun) + unusuals are too much for tf2 to handle.

    I was playin on full dustbowl server. No custom files at all. I tried lowering settings, but it didnt work. When these warning appear, other particles disappear so its hard to play - disappearing rockets or effects... sometimes even players... I have seen some "empty" places shooting rockets at me :/
