steam/userdata/*number*/22350/local/base
) - Enable and adjust the settings you want
- Click "Save and Apply Config"

FAQ:
- What are the system requirements?
You?ll need .NET Framework, which most people have by default. - What does "View Effects" do?
Setting it to 1 removes various view-related effects, like damage (double vision), improving performance. - What does "Skip Particles" do?
Setting it to 1 disables all particle effects (smoke, fog, steam, etc.). This can dramatically boost performance but may reduce visual realism. - Will there be more versions?
Yes! I plan to release as many versions as possible. If you want a specific cvar added, let me know! - What?s the max FOV value?
The maximum FOV is 110. - I think I found a bug.
