Please Set Sv_Pure To 0 On Servers

[ofaas 2]

I don't really see the logic behind setting it to anything besides 0. Anyone who is using models or textures to give themselves an advantage over other players is doing so at the expense of their own experience in the game. Personally I use particle modifications that tone down on unnecessary particles and greatly increase my fps. Also I'm tired of using that bogus hitsound that Valves sets as a default for your game. I'm sure there are people out there that wouldn't mind being able to customize their game files fairly as well. Thanks and good night.

Here is all the reason you need:

Anything with a wait command there would all of a sudden work.

But there is also transparent walls and changing color models to make all spies visible (among other things):

Hi I'm a link to hacks.

And about 100 other reasons sv_pure 0 is, logically, a bad idea.

Don't link to hacks/exploits or hacking websites.

Hmm. I wasn't aware you could legally exploit materials to that extent. That's fucked up.

That's how it is, no one likes it but what can you do? Complain to Valve and come back.

[Nano 7,892]

Sorry gotcha. I didn't think it would qualify as hacks because:

1. It doesn't work on any lotus server

2. Valve doesn't consider any changes to the materials folder as a VAC bannable offense.

That being said, I'll make sure not to post anything like that in the future.

Even if it doesn't work here (for now) it's still bad to link it, and gives Lotus a reputation if those links appear on our forums.

It's like the discussion with warez linkers. They say it's nothing bad as they don't host it, but they still link to bad content.

I know which particles you are referring to and it be nice if we could allow that. But that's impossible without allowing other kind of particle exploits.

Like say the cloak effect that never wears off so you can always see invisible spys.

Valve should have low quality particles as an option in the game itself as it would help for people with older CPUs.

I get it . I just wanted to explain that I hadn't just posted it without thought!
