Get 60 Frames Everywhere with a Half Decent PC

[MattIs]

This is my guide to get a decent frame rate in PERP to give you an advantage in those pesky situations:

Notice: This will disable your flashlight for yourself! If you're not bothered go ahead or just miss the r_shadows bit.

First this in console: r_shadows 0
Then this: r_3dsky 0
Then this: r_drawbatchdecals 0
Finally: r_drawdetailprops 0​

I now get 100 Frames Per Second on a 660Ti around Paralake in the city! Enjoy!

Matt, if you could explain what all those command's do, so people know for example that r_shadow 0 removes light's from cars and flashlight. Just so people dont freak out if it change's someting like that

Those all help but theres actually a command that just doubles your frames in one time and not by typing 4 commands.

If you type 'gmod_mcore_test 1' in console, then your frames will for almost everyone instantly be doubled on the server.
This command causes every citizen's clothes colored to white, but it looks cool though

Have fun

Doesn't matter what commands you use, gmod is a shit game and your fps will never be good.
Garry pls.

It might be a bump but, compiling this commands with some commands from @Creepis ' thread about increasing fps;

mat_specular 0
mat_shadowstate 0
r_shadowmaxrendered 0
nb_shadow_dist 400
r_fastzreject 1
r_3dsky 0
r_hunkalloclightmaps 0
r_drawbatchdecals 0
r_drawdetailprops 0

helps a lot.
