CS Source config

[Barrichello]

Hiya - i used to play 1.6 all the time and now have started playing source as it seems that it has improved since its first release.

Question i have though is with 1.6 i used to use my own config with settings which made it feel alot better to me. I used to use the following rates for example....


rate 25000
cl_updaterate 100
cl_cmdrate 100 etc etc

Just want to know if these are as important now days? i have a 2mb adsl connection, and when i used to play 1.6 i only had 512. Does any of this matter anymore and if it does, anyone have any good links to game sites with example configs?

unless ur worried about ur fps and want a boost the only real things u need to hcange are the ones ur mentioned. The rates used above would be perfect, keep them something like cl_crosshairscale xxxx would be good to put in config www.gotfrag.com and look at the top source clans, find there website and look for there player configs. A player called fiflaren who plays for zex gaming has a good config

[Barrichello]

many thanks for the info - will check out that site. Really enjoying Source and going to play alot more now

What difference does this make guys? Seems like borderline cheating to me? Surely everyone shoud be signing off the same hymsheet if you get what i mean?

I've been playing a few months and am really getting into it.

means that people who dont change there rates are the ones who are in the wrong, and its agony to get some nab, who knows squat about anything, saying that its just ane excuse, its not cheating its a configuration, everyone likes it differnt, at the end of the day anyone can use them they done aid your aim, just differnt things people like.

Don't fall into the easy 'bash the nub' type of answer...

As for the 'people who don't change rates are in the wrong'..WTF? Can't you see what i'm saying? the game should be who's got the most skill, not who knows the most about the program to figure out the albeit legal, hax?!

I found out the other day that you can change the AWP to oly have 1x zoom making it easier to switch in and out of zoom? As if enough people don't hate the AWP already?

I just think there should be a level playing field for all...

There is....everyone has the same program with the same tools and settings....

i wouldnt exactly say rate changes are cheating

Example...when u install cs..it askes what connection youve got...that itself is changing your rates accordingly

biggest thing i miss from 1.6 ex_interp

Ok then guys, so what are these rates as such? What does the connection selection do to them?

I don't think i'm calling it cheating as such, it's just disappointing that it's not a level playing field for all...Those who know about it get an advantage over those that don't know about it?

i wont fall into noob bashing, people that hate the awp shuld uninstall css asap, its part of the game, if it was so bad it would be banned in clan matches, you will prob find that although the awp skin had single scope it took the same amount of time to scope in and out, and as for rates, as standard they are rarely correct, as above 100 100 25000 are a good bet they fair fine on most servers.

they are not legal hax mate, you could have all of thses so called aids and i garantee i will still beat you on factory defaults its just down to taste and what you like, i prefer to use left handed gun its not a hack just i liek it more.

damn interp lol. so many clans in low skill use that these days. hate it yuk

well, in a way its the people that dont know that get an advantage because they leave there rrates n such at the wrong level and sponge a whole mag, then when i say change your rates a "rate 18000" isnt acceptable on this server they just like stfu get a life geek ect. so works both ways

[harry1]

mines to long to list lol well it isnt but it would be long

[Merlin4458]

no point touching interpolate, as z-block is on and should be on most servers. jsut get ur rates sorted and crosshair size colour, and thats all u need unless u wanna get more fps then search google for casey's config
