I want to remove the crit particles the viewmodels show(victory round over, Frontier justice revenge crits, etc)
The reason for so is that my computer runs the game at a slower pace with the particles up and it looks ugly anyway but I'm having a hard time finding how to
A guy said to remove them I would have to replace them with a blank particle texture of the sorts, but I don't know how to get/make said blank particle/where to place it
Any help would be appreciated

removes the lightning effects from crits so all you get is the weapon glow (a bit annoying on dxlevel 80 since there is no weapon glow period, so it's a bit hard to tell when you get crits in the first place)

Didn't work
I think all the crit particle effect fixes got broken after engie update, which is rather odd
Crit glows aren't ugly, they serve a purpose. But you could try looking through fpsbanana or whatever

They're rather hideous actually, and I dont need them
If a medic is kritzkreiging me I can hear the sound just fine plus all my bullets are different looking
If I'm using the FJ I can just look at revenge crit numbers
If it's victory I can hear the crowd cheering etc
They aren't hideous, but FJ is a bit of an eyesore after a while.
What if someone shoots a Crockett, you won't know to dodge that extra bit.

He just wants the viewmodel effects gone.
Me too aswell - I can't actually hit anyone with my revenge crits with the FJ because I lag so much.
FJ is a problem. Hurts your eyes after a while. I can't use it though, I'm shit at aing quckly

I'm on it
(imo dx9 looks worse compared to dx8, less cartoonish)

doesn't that remove the artistic feel of the game if it's less cartoonish?
well...regardless of your tastes, the files i uploaded really should work, as they still work fine for me. and i said that dx8 would be wierd as well, since there's no glow in the first place. the mod just removes the lightning particle.

It works fine for me ! Thanks a lot !
I tried to remove the glow and the other effects myself but it resulted by a crash.
But this is very good, the glow is not a problem.
Found a custom particle in my particle folder, when I got rid of it and went into a server it hung at "Sending client info" for like 20 minutes so I had to manually shut down my system
That's why you don't just delete stuff.
Restore it, then edit it

whoops D:
Aw, it doesn't work anymore. :saddowns: Every time I join a server I get a crash and it's because of the custom particle ...

again...weird. i join all kinds of sv_pure servers (0,1, and 2) and i'm always fine
Same fucking problem and i hate that there isn't any crit glow on weapons on dx8 i would remove if I didn't get confused some1 wanna bandwagoon report for dx8 glow fix and a option for the effect to be on/off ?
[QUOTE=teeheeV2;23251571]They aren't hideous[/QUOTE]
They do get in the way though.
Valve should make the crits particles appear only when it's from a kritz-charge, we seriously don't need to see them in the end of a round.
Also when you cap the intel on a ctf_ map.

In the description to this video is a download to a cool, less noisy crit effect I found. You can download and install it without the Medic beams if you want.
DISCOVERY!
what a nuisance. anything (old?) editing the item_fx.pcf (the files that edit the krit lightning effect) makes the game crash when taking out the wrangler with a sentry out. so my fix doesn't work, and neither does the one sgtnapalm linked. shame.
perhaps an updated version will work?

Oh fuck that's what causes my game to crash!
Thanks, I love you!
