    	    <description><![CDATA[You can't do it via a webdocument shortcut, it has to be an application shortcut and then append the parameters.

So for your example, it would be:-

Steam.exe -applaunch 440 -console -dxlevel 98 -windowed -noborder -w 1920 -h 1080 -nojoy -noipx -novid +exec highgfx]]></description>

Using that doesn't seem to exec the gfx configs, nor does it change the dxlevel. something I'm missing?]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[You could create a toggle alias.

I am not that good at scripting but something like that might work:

<code>alias changegfx "pubgfx"
alias pubgfx "exec pub.cfg; alias changegfx compgfx"
alias compgfx "exec comp.cfg; alias changegfx pubgfx"
bind "KEY" "changegfx"</code>

If the game crashes, I built a loop :D
Thanks Chris, didn't think of that.

This way if you hit KEY you will execute the pub settings, next time you will execute the comp settings. It always starts with executing the pub settings, afaik you can not "save" the last executed config from the last gamestart.]]></description>

But yeah a better way to exec the 2 different configs would be handy but I'd doubt that would be plausible.]]></description>

"steam://rungameid/440 -console -dxlevel 98 -windowed -noborder -w 1920 -h 1080 -nojoy -noipx -novid"

Didn't try if that works, leave it up to you ;-)

Afaik you can not change the dxlevel ingame, You would have to restart the game for that.

Also, I do not know a startup parameter to execute a certain config but you could create a "pub_config.cfg" with high graphics and a "comp_config.cfg" with low graphics and bind both to a key?!]]></description>

You could keep 1 really shit gfx and the other really high 

I'm sure someone more intelligent will say something more useful :)]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[Hi, what is the best way to switch between lowfps gfx with dx8 to high gfx with dx98?

Is it possible to have 2 shortcuts of TF2 launching different graphics but the same config?

I'm asking this because in pub I like to play in full graphics but in 6v6 I like it in low graphics.

I could just use the mat_dxlevel stuff but I'd prefer to have 2 separate shortcuts for each graphic settings.]]></description>
