Hello, is the step no. 4 "Extract your HUD to tf/custom." supposed to still be there??

Issue co-made with @wgetJane

Last time I tried to make a Linux build of the leak, I managed to compile the client and server .so libs but ran into some linking issues with protobuf (seemed like some weird ABI compatibility problem).

Valves build system is /horrible/. To get anything working on Linux you first have to patch several Makefiles, normalize some filenames (Valve really likes to #include without regard to case sensitivity), outright fix some warnings/bugs (gotta love -Werror) and even add missing includes - have fun grepping the source tree to find all the paths.

I am currently on vacation but I can probably share my findings/patches when I get back.

Have you made any progress yourself?

PS: Out of curiosity I built an optimized version of libtogl.so (valves DX->OpenGL translation layer lib) and it made no difference in performance (it did break rendering a bit tho, no idea why). Just in case you got that idea as well.

One thing that would be good for team comtress 2 is x64 builds, this allows the engine use more resources of the current
machine and it could improve the performance and stability.

Describe the solution you'd like
The leak's groups.vgc has a group for x64 bits, another mention of it is on source_dll_win32_base.vpc

nope

Special lines for all classes were created in the Meet Your Match update for Casual and Competitive. The Blue Moon update in 2018 seems to have broken the voicelines in Casual Mode. After that update, the classes no longer say those lines and only battle cry lines play. For example, here is a video demonstrating them before they stopped working.

https://youtu.be/HpRHt5psw-s

5:00: You can hear all of the classes bragging on how they won.

9:56: You can hear soldier say "I will not stand for losing!"

17:35: Round starts and you hear scout saying lets get a win, and soldier saying dibs on the medic.

I'm pretty sure there's more but I don't want to have you watch all of it. I'm sure you get my idea now.

I have a file that I have edited to make them work again. Here is how it previously looked, and never changed. (This is from tf/scripts/talker inside tf2_misc_dir.vpk)

Rule PlayerFirstRoundStartCompEngineer
{
criteria ConceptPlayerRoundStartComp IsEngineer IsFirstRound IsNotComp6v6 40PercentChance
Response PlayerFirstRoundStartCompEngineer
}

All I did was remove Comp from all of that, and they worked again for all classes. It seems that "IsNotComp6v6" doesn't do its job anymore so maybe that's the culprit.

Describe the solution you'd like
Fix them in Casual Mode. Only battle-cries play now which seems to be unintended as I can't find the change in the patch notes anywhere.

Describe alternatives you've considered
None.

Title is self explanitory, the convar is found in server\tf\tf_player.cpp.
When set to 1 it seems to simply grant infinite ammo.
Though instead, I would prefer to see it remake to function how CS:GO's infinite ammo convar works:
When set to 1, grant an infinite clip. When set to 2, grant infinite reserve ammo.

Particles flicker a lot during combat, probably particle collision mode hack.

like the title says the read has no mention about this 3 libs that are need for building the engine

EDIT 9/7/2020: i'm not experienced with rapidly evolving repos like this so this thread is kind of a mess, sorry bout that. from now on I'm going to only post benchmark data in this thread and all bug reports or suggestions will be separate

note that this info applies only to the official valve tf2 on steam. my observations aren't code-oriented and frankly tf2's source kinda scares me. i've also been away from this stuff for half a year so i might forget certain details

i'm sure you've already fixed a number of things i'm gonna mention and a lot of it is probably super obvious. i've read all release notes but haven't run any builds, also can't always mentally correlate certain changes with their practical impact. i might as well share since i had spent a lot of time observing performance related stuff over the years, testing, all that. anyway, hope you can get at least one useful thing out of it

performance observations for official valve tf2:

• on less than high end systems especially, there may be significantly higher and more flux 'input latency' on dx9 vs dx8, regardless of what shaders are disabled via cvars

  for instance, disabling or reducing as many shaders and processing as possible on dx9 will greatly reduce input delay vs stock dx9, but nowhere near to dx8's extent. it also won't disable shaders on certain things, such as the little player model in the corner if that's enabled. latency in tf2 is not directly tied to frame rates but is affected by it. 120fps in dx8 for me is far less delayed than 120fps in dx9. older source games like hl2 don't have this issue at all, even when it's assumed that tf2 with my cfg is running far less shaders than hl2 is

• in dx8, certain world static detail props are not drawn at all such as bushes, grass, wall mounted hoses, horseshoes, nails

• number of players on the server, especially rendered at once is probably the number 1 thing that tanks performance, secondarily if those players are creating objects, particles, projectile models, tracers, bullet impacts, sound, etc. simply adding real players to a map even with little to no player activity tanks fps (have seen drops from avg 500fps to 150 as players load into a server) while looking at real, mostly hatless players on a remote server who are doing almost nothing at all (such as waiting in spawn on payload attack during setup, not firing weapons, vocalizing or even moving or looking much)

• map geometry and/or number of static props drawn at once greatly affect render performance and input latency on a low-mid end system, observed primarily on cp_mossrock

• i've observed it over the years where with more active and more complex shaders, game freezes/stutter is more frequent and lasts longer per freeze

• game hangs are known to be caused at least in part by match hud updating (this one's really bad for me), players joining a team (even if weapon skins are disabled, nohats mod is enabled & match hud is disabled), and viewmodel weapon skins loading in. freezes do happen without visleaf involvement, for example standing still, no mouselook, not near/facing any sliding doors

• aside from what i already listed, in vague order of performance impact on my low-mid end rig: antialiasing, wearable cosmetics, reducefillrate/worldlights, 3dsky on/off, glow outlines/spawn hax, player texture-rendered shadows, mat_phong, ropes, rootlod, bumpmap/specular/other shaders. everything else individually seem to make unnoticeable differences to framerate alone (still probably important to toggle them in batch)

bugs for official valve tf2:

• loading a timedemo on one map and then another timedemo on another map in the same game session will reduce avg framerate by 10-20% on the second demo

  note: running timedemo on any unique demo gives a lower avg framerate on the first run, and higher frames on subsequent runs. this was accounted for when i observed the framerate reduction on the second unique demo, both were run multiple times in a row

• mat_filterlightmaps 0 does not stick if set before joining a server. it is automatically set back on map load, but does not reflect the change through the cvar and it remains 0 until manually set to 1, and then it can be set back to 0. it will continue to revert in the same way though on each class change

• mod_lock_mdls_on_load crashes when set to 1. can crash either on server disconnect or after quitting out of game

Coach mode is currently impossible to access in official lobbies, as they require the player to be in matchmaking to join.
There's a plethera of other bugs, such as the coach and studnet flags being reset at mapchange, the student outline persisting, etc.

Describe the solution you'd like
Self explanatory. Find a workaround to allow a coach to join valve's matchmaking servers, and, where possible, fix the bugs when actually coaching

Describe the bug
Some files, for example game/client/playerspawncache.h are not encoded in UTF-8, that can cause compatibility issues.

If you alt tab with mouse free (i.e. main menu, scoreboard with mouse enabled, inventory), alt tabbing works fine.
However, if you do not have this free mouse (if you're playing the game, or in spectator mode) the mouse will get locked to the screen TC2 is using when you alt tab

1. Go into any map
2. Team doesn't matter, even spectator can trigger it
3. Alt-tab while in first person (if on a team, if spectator all camera modes will trigger it)

Describe the bug
The game was running perfectly. The fps was rock solid and that was with 8x MSAA. It was very impressive. But, while rocket jumping on an offline server, after about 15 minutes of use the game crashed to desktop. Sound stopped before the program crashed.

How you encountered the issue
I'm not sure, all I was doing was playing on an offline plr_hightower server with no bots. I was using the rocket jumper, had an unusual kill-a-watt, a skinned shotgun (that wasn't displayed but I'm sure you're aware of that), and escape plan.

As title says, replace the viewmodels that are inconsistent to the playermodel of the class, like Sniper, he doesn't wear two gloves, he wears only one, and only in his left with a watch. Closest example of this is Team Fortress 2 Classic, but the coloring isn't as consistent as it is in that sourcemod, like Scout's viewmodel, his skin isn't as dark there, so it's not color-accurate.

New players need to take a 3 hour deep dive on Youtube before they can even start playing the same game as other players. TF2 has a critical lacking in information for new players, and the tutorial is still stuck in 2007.

Describe the solution you'd like
The text written into the original tutorial could be rewritten to include mechanics like rocket / sticky jumping, the mechanics of backstabbing, or sentry and dispenser placement. Possibly (maybe) tutorials could be made for Pyro (airblast), Sniper (damage numbers and chargetime), and Medic (importance of ubercharge), which all require their own explanations on their own.

It would be a lot of fun if they keeped the civilian class for vip gamemode and as far i know the class still on the game but unused

it simply is a typeless damage source such as melee weapons and medic shield when imo it should deal fire damage
