Clean TF2's sequel

CleanTF2plus

A sequel to the original Clean TF2 mod. Designed to provide mods that reduces visual clutter and increase fps.

Linux version is currently a WIP.

Features

CleanTF2+ makes use of batch files to generate mods for you. Being automatically generated means that it:

• stays updated easier
• allows for options to enable or disable
• is a smaller download
• functions offline
• can be tailored to individual needs

Install

1. Download zip
2. Unzip to custom folder
3. Run generate.bat (Windows) or generate.sh (Linux)
4. Select the options you want

Linux users will need to install imagemagick and wine.

​* Some options can take a while to fully run, because they need to work with huge amounts of files. Taking several minutes can be expected.

If you run into issues installing, check out troubleshooting.

Options

• Flat textures: makes all textures appear as a solid color.
• Nohats: removes all hats and cosmetic items.
• No Playergibs: removes all gibs that come from players exploding.
• No Shells: removes all shell models ejected from guns.
• No Weapongibs: removes all gibs from certain projectiles (arrows breaking, for instance).
• Surfaceproperties: removes all particle effects bullets hitting walls and all footstep sounds
• No Soundscapes: removes most ambient sounds on maps.
• mtp.cfg: makes all maps become unaffected by pyrovision.

Turn into VPK

Having folders inside custom makes load times slower (regardless of contents) and vpk files exist to speed up load times. For this reason, a utility is provided to convert CleanTF2+ into vpk files.

When you have fully generated the options you wanted:

1. Run pack_vpk.bat
2. Move/delete CleanTF2plus folder out of custom (otherwise there is no load time benefit)
