Changing video settings to make the quality low is disallowed in most games leagues if you check the rules, mat_picmip can't be set to higher value than 2 either if sv_cheats is not 1, and other commands are protected in the same way, and this is because it allows you to see the opponents more easily I guess. As nubonamission says, he does this to gain an advantage.
Besides seeing your opponents more easily, I was using it because it was easier for me to spot a scout hiding somewhere or trying to go behind and flank, not to mention being able see stickies a mile away.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=8934&post=152045 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 19:52:00 +0100 Reply by Gobi https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-8934/page-2/?recent=152066#post=152043 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=8934&post=152043 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 19:46:06 +0100 Reply by AnAkIn_ https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-8934/page-2/?recent=152066#post=152034 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=8934&post=152034 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 19:18:11 +0100 Reply by Buffalo Bill https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-8934/page-2/?recent=152066#post=152028 Quoted from Archy
Found on the ESL rules page: 2.1.5.1. Config changes - Videocard drivers or similar tools Changing the game graphics or textures with the help of videocard drivers or similar tools is illegal. Furthermore any kind of overlay that displays the system performance while playing (e.g. Nvidia SLI Display, Rivatuner Overlays) is illegal. Failure to comply with this rule will result in 6 penalty points for the player and the team. Tools that only display the FPS are legal. Regardless of being actively used, if these scripts are found in part or in full in your config files, you will be penalized. Had to give it up :/
I would like to know why they disallow it since it only helps fps, but I guess that's not a discussion for here.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=8934&post=152028 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 18:48:27 +0100 Reply by Monsterage https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-8934/page-1/?recent=152066#post=152026 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=8934&post=152026 Sun, 21 Feb 2010 18:42:53 +0100 Reply by Ari https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-8934/page-1/?recent=152066#post=151996 2.1.5.1.
