Mashed Potato graphics settings

[Based_On_Cringe #FixTF2]

I really wish TF2 updated its Graphical Settings tab in the game to allow for more customization. Inlcuding just disabling shadows, super low res textures, disabling gibs, ragdoll, bullet holes on the walls, pixelated lighting and shadows, disabled particles and allow to easily change FPS limit.

My current and only available "PC" is a potato laptop with an "Intel® Core™ i7-10610U" CPU with a very weak iGPU. I can play TF2 at unstable FPS only if I use a special custom super low config file that I have to pull from a special "TF2 Master Config" website. And I just wish all of these settings were available in-game. Including FPS limit. Because having to google "tf2 limit fps console command" every time is not as good as if there was a setting.

I dont exactly complain as I have no active issues but I think TF2 would be slightly better if it had easier settings customization for super potato PCs. Oh and Steam Deck would benefit from itbecause if you set up super low settings and limit FPS to 30, then battery life will be greatly prolonged.

Man I love TF2

Ok yes but the point still stands. Many other games have a separate setting for fps limit. And FPS limit setting is not the main thing here. The point is to make settings more versatile

The sad truth is that valve hasn't touched settings in a while and probably won't

So until then the stupid settings they gave us will do
