The black explosive marks on the ground (when a soldier shoots the ground) seem to stay there forever. Is there a command to make them last a shorter time or go away completely?
Further, what's the command to enable/disable the signs around maps, for example the jimie jams and the warning signs?
Best Answer
I found out something that may benefit you while researching for this answer. You can reduce how many decals in total that are active at one time using the
mp_decals
configuration setting.By default, this is set to 200. You can reduce it to be as low as 1 or as high as 4096:
So, if you want to reduce the amount of black explosive marks on the ground, it's likely that setting
will do this for you.
There are plenty of other tweakable options/configs and many of them have to do with decals, however not all are well documented, and there are too many to test out. I would suggest playing around with them to achieve the desired result. However, do note that some are considered 'cheats' and thus will not work on Valve servers or servers running
sv_pure 1
