- // INTRODUCTION
- // *******************************************************************
- // Kaizen's L4D2 performance config is designed to boost your frame
- // rates (FPS) while maintaining the best possible graphics experience.
- // It also attempts to improve hit registration (i.e. the accuracy of
- // your shots) by optimizing network settings, improve the visibility
- // of the crosshair, and increase brightness so you can see enemies
- // better.
- //
- // Unfortunately, as was the case with the original L4D, L4D2
- // restricts most of the Source Engine's console commands. Many of the
- // best performance options can only accessed via the in game menu's.
- // Feel free to tweak any of the settings to your liking, descriptions
- // of what commands do are provided.
- //
- // If you have any suggestions, questions or other feedback please
- // visit www.nextlevelgamer.com and post on the forums.
- //
- //
- // Enjoy!

- //
- // INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- // *******************************************************************
- // Place this file (autoexec.cfg) into your Left 4 Dead 2 CFG folder,
- // similar to the path below:
- //
- // <install folder>\Steam\SteamApps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\cfg\
- //
- //
- //
- // STEAM LAUNCH OPTIONS
- // *******************************************************************
- //
- // For an additional performance boost, customize your command line
- // launch options for Left 4 Dead 2 in Steam before starting the game
- //
- // Setting Launch Options
- // ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- // 1. Go to "My Games" in Steam
- // 2. Right click "Left 4 Dead 2" and select "Properties"
- // 3. Select "Set launch options..." and enter the following:
- //
- // -w 1680 -console -refresh 120 -heapsize 1572864 -high -noforcemaccel -noforcemparms -noipx -nojoy
- //
- //
- // Customizing Launch Options
- // ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- // -w 1680 Sets resolution to 1680x1050; for 16:10 widescreen monitors - tweak as necessary
- // -console Enables developer console; so you can press ~ to enter commands
- // -novid Disables the intro movie, speeds up game on start-up (doesn't seem to work in L4D2 yet though)
- // -refresh 120 Forces 120hz/120fps refresh rate on monitor (if available)
- // -heapsize 1572864 Allocates RAM for the game; see table below for calculating optimal values
- // -high Forces high CPU priority
- // -noforcemaccel Forces desktop mouse acceleration settings
- // -noforcemparms Forces desktop mouse button configuration
- // -noipx Disables IPX network detection, local LAN (slight boot time improvement; you may need to remove this for LAN parties)
- // -nojoy Disables detection of 3rd party gamepads and controllers (slight boot time improvement)
- //
- // Heapsize Setting
- // ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- // Modify the heapsize command to allocate 50% of the RAM you have
- // in your computer (NOT video card memory!) in bytes.
- //
- // Formula = RAM (in GB) * 1024 * 1024 / 2
- // 1GB -heapsize 524288
- // 2GB -heapsize 1048576
- // 3GB+ -heapsize 1572864
- //
- // Since L4D2 is a 32-bit application it is believed to be capped at
- // a maximum of 3GB of RAM. Setting heapsize to a value beyond this
- // may crash the game.
- //
- //
- // For a detailed guide on Steam launch options, refer to:
- // http://www.nextlevelgamer.com/counter-strike-source-launch-options/
- //
- //
- //
- // Removal Instructions:
- // *******************************************************************
- // Don't like the config? Simply delete autoexec.cfg and config.cfg
- // from Steam\SteamApps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\cfg\
- // Depending on your Steam Cloud settings, you may need to redefine
- // your key bindings and personal preferences after this.
- //
- // Note: - Brightness too high? Set mat_monitorgamma_tv_enabled to 0
- // - Prefer default crosshair? Set cl_crosshair_dynamic 1
