    Add these commands to your autoexec.cfg to enable muiticore rendering. I gained 40 FPS avg

    r_threaded_renderables 1
    mat_queue_mode 2
    r_threaded_particles 1
    r_threaded_client_shadow_manager 1
    cl_threaded_bone_setup 1
    cl_threaded_client_leaf_system 1

    OK, it boosted my fps up to 80 (from 25-30) in the beginning, however after about a minute it dropped.

    What is the secret.

    r_threaded_renderables 1
    mat_queue_mode 2
    r_threaded_particles 1
    r_threaded_client_shadow_manager 1
    cl_threaded_bone_setup 1
    cl_threaded_client_leaf_system 1

    mat_queue_mode is pretty unstable, anyone have any crashes with this? I've heard alt-tabbing is a pain

    Can anyone confirm if this works? I can't test it at the moment...

    I tried it, I got 80 for a few frames back at main base when nothings happenning. I got average 20 fps more when nothings happening. No improvement when I'm in huge tank battle. Crash when I alt tab D:

    This does indeed work. However, for me, the effects wear out after a few minutes of playing.

    wow. I just tried this quickly and I gained some serious fps, like 40-50. I didn't play for that long though, so I don't know if it wears out or not.

    EDIT: Upon further inspection, this does indeed bring up stability issues.

    I've done this with TF2, I gained 60+ FPS on TF2, but the thing is Vess, I also crashed everytime a Pyro killed me so no, I am not messing with these commands again.

    I got a massive improvement off of this.
    However it does make it near imposable to tell where I need to optimize an area if I get a near perfect 80fps.

    I was considering this, until I remembered that I get a steady 100+ anyway :p

    That tweaking isnt working for me ...I have a quad core, tried first mat_queue_mode 2 then 4 first i got >200 for a half second then 0 next half second ... weird like 2 fps ... when i tried it with mode 4 i got less FPS then in mode 1 and weird bugs (engytool shows 0 in mode 4 even if its charged)
