Heapsize does not work !!!

TF2 insane lags!

By huster 5 years ago

Some of my friends experiencing same problem as me, lags! It started few weeks ago, first what is happening is, after approximately 15 min, fps droping down up to 40%, after 5 min more lags appears, like lost connection, but witout "lost connection" notices. I tryed to change video settings, network setting, i even changed my antivirus/firewall just to find problem for that. Then I decide to check memory and i found that TF2 using too much. I have 1GB DDR2 memory. Before i turn TF2 on I haved 750mb free memory, and TF2 eat all of it, and crazy lags appears after memory is out. Now, the heapsize settings i have is: memmaxheapsize 256 memminheapsize 48 And I tryed to change heapsize settings in "launch options" from -heapsize 448000 to 512000, also removing it from "launch options" Nothing helps!!!

    It definitely sounds like your having memory problems :S

    If would suggest you give this a try to to check it off the list, Click here for the best TF2 FPS Config around !

    Like I said, its a memory problem and so I dont know how to fix this, what I would suggest doing is backing up your config/autoexec/custom skins/your map folder/and your screenshot folder and then uninstalling TF2, then manually deleteing all remaining TF2 files left after the uninstall. Then restart and obviously install TF2 again.

    That would be what I would do.
