nothing urgent but on every startup i get extra lines in console that are really annoying
i have a cfg that execs "clear" at the very end of my autoexec and then stuff that echo's into console afterwards but after all of that i always get a few lines and i have no clue where they're coming from

#

if you're preloading then yea that happens

#

and it's totally unavoidable

#

(afaik)

#

well you can implement a clear command or enabling/disabling console's output to get rid of the stuff somewhere in your startup script

lilac horizon Where is this autoexec of your located?

tf/cfg/overrides folder > autoexec > inside the autoexec i have "exec edin.cfg" > edin.cfg is in tf/cfg

#

i also tried using vpks in custom instead of cfg's in the cfg folder

#

i have clear at the end of edin.cfg but regardless those lines come up

What do you have dynamic_background set to in modules?

lusty jacinth Oct 25, 2023, 5:34 AM

#

#

is it a cfg somewhere

lilac horizon Oct 25, 2023, 6:09 AM

#

Open TF2 and run this in console: dynamic_background_level

lusty jacinth Oct 26, 2023, 2:35 AM

#

it's set to off

I just did some testing, and I'm not sure how to stop them from showing. It seems to be something that happens after your cfgs are run. So it's not as easy as running clear at the end.

it's alright ty for the help, on a side note can you go into a vpk and edit cfg files and then save it? when i edit the cfg's and click save it doesn't actaully save, do i have to remake the vpk?

It's best to unpack, edit, then repack vpks.

But don't do this with mastercomfig.
All the customization gets done outside the vpk so that when you need to update the config, you just replace the vpk while your customizations remain.
