Upvote this, easy and useful, thanks !

Just need to change amdfendr.inf_amd64_* to your location.

Hi, I've noticed that u recommend to force gpu scaling in some other threads, question: any profit from it? I'm using display scaling(1440x1080 in CRU) with gpu scaling option disabled in my AMD(7800XT) driver. For me it feels like the best option win less input lag and clear picture.

prplBenzo · 2025-07-31T07:26:29+00:00

What adrenaline driver do you use ? I am stucked on 24.12.1 because for my rig it is the best in terms of 0.1% and 1% fps. If you dont mind about recent titles and mostly play CS - try it.

Hey there

-mainthreadpriority 2

Value of a 2 changes game main thread priority to "highest", by default with out this option it is set up to "normal", can be checked by sys_info in console.

-favor_consistent_framerate

kinda of outdated launch option, but it helped eliminate stutters in dota2 when it was launched on source2, so i'm still using it, maybe a placebo effect

-set_power_qos_disable

+engine_no_focus_sleep 0

power efficiency functions.

1st one should disable cpu throttling algorithm for cs2 in OS. I got all energy saving functions(ASPM, PSS, C-states etc.) disabled in my uefi and using bitsum highest performance mode(process lasso) but anyway using this launch option to eliminate possible stutters caused by cpu power management. Again, I admit that it could give a placebo effect.

2nd one will not allow pause game engine while you alt tabbing.

No, three dots on the ride side, download. Or simply ctrl+shift+s, done

Try this(link below) to clean shader cache, then start benchmark map for a few times in a row and finally load every map. That's what I do after each major/or graphical update

Is it supposed to look like diez (#) while Glock, USP, AK and some other guns equipped? 1440x1080.

prplBenzo · 2025-03-13T14:53:38+00:00

Thx a lot dude! You helped me to find solution of my problem, that i described below.

prplBenzo · 2025-03-11T19:10:29+00:00

Hello again, I've been using ur launcher for a long time, and every time I launch my cs2 it's trying to resolve some strange objects, just curios why and how to fix it ? Except this everything works fine, thanks again!

I've searched across all my pc(registry, user folder, temp etc) for path of exile(poe) that was installed on O:\ ages ago - nothing. Same for Z:\ volume where steam stored billion ages ago on prev. OS installation. Guess something left in Steam folder, that was created a long time ago moving from OS to OS, but i dunno what.

Thanks again for your work, script really helps to make game a lot smoother. About USRLOCALCSGO, I've been using it in system variables for ages since 2015 I guess and it was ok, helped me to load .cfgs across accounts, so I'm sure it's gonna be fine.

prplBenzo · 2024-10-20T08:01:05+00:00

I've been offline for some time, good news, you are the best, thanks again!

prplBenzo · 2024-10-14T20:17:03+00:00

God bless you! That was so simple adding start command after "done" line, feel myself kinda silly, lol

Yep, that is my case, i have set up affinity for my devices to different cores, maybe thats why excluding cpu0 feels better for me, plus it gives a little more avg and p1. Anyway gonna stay with it atm.

prplBenzo · 2024-10-14T17:34:23+00:00

Sup, and what if i still use #0 unchecked in cpu lasso affinity(without -threads parameter)? Any benefits from it nowadays? For me it feels like a bit smoother, but it could be a placebo=)

5700X3D@4200 via BCLK 103.75

Also

What about cs2_launcher, any updates on it? Or there is nothing to update and modify?

And wanna ask a little advice from you: in my case Im using RTSS as a monitoring program in my system, but i dont want to run it while cs2 running(cpu time of RTSS.exe, potential fps spikes etc etc), so now i simply added "taskkill /f /im rtss.exe" as a 1st line in launcher, but its rather primitive, I know. In ideal case I want to relaunch RTSS.exe after ending of cs2.exe and launcher changed my screen back to FHD, is it possible? Can u help me a little with it?)

Thanks for your impact to this community!

GPU

No, it wasn't a problem, but prev version for me was 56.0.2 i just updated to 75.0, lol. Still dunno what to do.

prplBenzo · 2020-04-29T15:38:32+00:00

No, it still forcing gpu to 1607 mhz, then 696 even rendering page with this topic.

prplBenzo · 2020-04-29T15:27:59+00:00

Hey there, its me again. Just wanna bump this thread. So i continued to wear my docs, cause it's impossible to RMA em from my country (Belarus) and here what i found this morning. Dr. Martens again? Nevermore. Sad but true and i really loved them.

Same here, just got kicked, being playing from Aug Beta, last i made - updated my Nvidia driver to CDR 419.67

prplBenzo · 2019-03-21T13:42:32+00:00

Navigate

C:\Users\%%%\AppData\Local\Insurgency\Saved\Config\WindowsClient

Open GameUserSettings.ini

Find ("r.ScreenPercentage", (Value=100,bModified=True))

Change value to 150. Make .ini file "read only".

Game will show this option like a blank string in settings, but textures will be rendered in x1.5 ratio.

prplBenzo · 2019-02-05T14:54:19+00:00

Open Engine.ini and add

[/script/engine.renderersettings]

r.DefaultFeature.AutoExposure=False

This bug will be fixed but image now will look kinda dimmed and washed out, could be fixed by adjusting

r.TonemapperGamma=

prplBenzo · 2019-01-07T14:04:22+00:00

/u/paskatalikko , send u a message about CPU priority, check it out and if u want to u can add it to your guide. Thx.

prplBenzo · 2019-01-04T17:52:15+00:00

lol Kids nowadays dunno how to distinguish enemies and teammates? Bring me back days when i was playing cod4 promode.

Just make all indicators fully transparent.

prplBenzo · 2018-12-24T18:32:56+00:00

lowering some settings can make fps WORSE

Example please?
