SENTRY animations are choppy
A long time ago i had a really bad pc and I used performance configs, and now I have a really good one but the SENTRIES move pixelated. I have tried deleting the config and doing -autoconfig in launch options, that fixed everything EXCEPT the choppy SENTRIES animations. Can someone please help?

There are also sentries in overwatch.

Not to mention oh my God I think overwatch has shotguns, revolvers, rocket launchers, healing beams, bows, sniper rifles, and even grenade launchers. Better just stop talking about balancing and just play pyro because there are no flamethrowers in overwatch

HAPPY NOW?

Anyway, my main games are L4D2 and Garry's Mod. I'm asking ONE SIMPLE QUESTION. Please don't be technical with me.

it's caused by lower interp
afaik there's no fix
if you want the game to be more playable, you'll have to deal with choppy sentry/boss animations
not a major loss considering you're getting significantly better netsettings

I have a good wifi speed and a good computer and no longer need the choppy animations but could I fix this by changing cl_interp to something higher? Or would it be lower?

the choppy animations are due to its model that never got updated. it is meant to run at 30 FPS, but nowaday, TF2 runs at 60 FPS. to display the animation "nicely", the rendering engine double the duration of each frames.

in other words: unless the model gets updated, you will have to support the choppy animations

Uhh yeah, you all know this has to do with cl_lerp, cl_updaterate, and cl_cmdrate
