Actually, it's possible to run the game below the game's system requirements - but it's going to look real ugly and could cause issues with the game! Here's how you do it:
  1. Right-click on Team Fortress 2 in Steam.
  2. Click on "Properties" from the menu which appears.
  3. Click on "Set Launch Options..." from the window which appears.
  4. Enter the following (including spaces): -dxlevel 70 -mat_showlowresimage 1
  5. Click the OK button.
A note about Step 4: You can replace -dxlevel 70 with -dxlevel 80 if you want minimal Pixel Shader support, since, to my knowledge, DirectX 8 introduced Pixel Shader 1 and 1.1.

Its been a while since I've had a good game as a spy. Still wish I would learn to aim properly so I could score those critical head-shots with the ambassador.

The downside was that some people didnt show up, and then someone would leave or go spectate for a while making the teams unbalanced. Great level of skill all-around. Even from Darth, who was a total newbie and lagging. You better try out that new bow you got!

Shall we try this again someday? However, this time announce the password on our AB group so that anyone belonging to that group could join (so we can keep it as AB exclusive).

Also, turn on the item-drop announcements and voice communication.

i didn't feel like an "admin" so i didn't announce the pw in the FB group or anywhere else as expack said, he wanted to tell the PW by personal message :-/

there arent thaaaat many tf2 players, we even could leave it "public" so that 24 slots are guaranteed

I had a great time, the game was a lot more fun then I thought it would be. It is a pity about my slow internet connection but it is a fast one for Aus, so hey what am I going to do about it. The lag wasn't to bad on my end, only a few jerks here and there and I seemed to be able to hit people most of the time.

I am totally up for doing this again. I'm happy to help put the password out on whichever parts of the network however you guys decide.

I'm looking forward to more face shooting!

Well, we could 'try it again' this Saturday (08/27/2011) at 4PM GMT, using the same password as last time - with the exception being it (the password) would be broadcast across the entire AB Network. Might that work?
