TF2 Old School mod installation?
I used to play TF2 on windows 8 on this laptop and it worked just fine on low settings with now lock ups. This same computer about a year later is now running linux with Zorin or whatever, and the game freezes and locks up about every 20 seconds of gamepla, despite running about the same speed as it did before. I installed Chris' FPS config and it did help a lot, but it still locks up during gameplay about every minute or so. I'm thinking making the game even faster should help even more, so I tried to install THe Old School pack. Unfortuantely, I have no idea whatsoever how to do that. I remember reading to put it in the tf/custom which only has a readme saying it would scan this folder. When I put the pack in (3 folders) The game wouldn't even launch. Anyone succesfully installed it? I managed to install the confg correctly first try so I'm sure I can take basic directions.

send me a screenshot of your folder right now, or go into your scripts folder and tell me the exact file path.

You can just post the screenshot here.

It should look like
tf/custom/oldschoolpack/materials
tf/custom/oldschoolpack/models
tf/custom/oldschoolpack/scripts
I don't see any option to link a file here, but yeah that is my file path, I've double-checked. It hasn't applied t it though, the game is still as it was before.

It worked! I have absolutely no chokes or freezes and the game is at a constant 131 fps!
Thank you so much, +rep
