I've been trying to increase player class speeds on TF2 using a variety of methods, so far none have worked.

I've seen a number of topics posted here that suggest editing the .ctx files will allow the class speeds to be increased beyond 400. I've tried editing the heavyweapons.ctx found in /orangebox/tf/scripts/playerclasses to the following. Specifically, I've increased speed_max and health_max. Unfortunately they do not appear to have any effect.

I used VICE for decompilation/compilation, which I found here: http://forums.alliedmods.net/showpos...6&postcount=12. I noticed the post is from 2008 so perhaps the version is out of date?

PHP Code:

//
// Team Fortress - HeavyWeapons Player Class
//
PlayerClass
{
    // Attributes.
    "name"            "heavyweapons"
    "model"            "models/player/heavy.mdl"
    "model_hwm"        "models/player/hwm/heavy.mdl"
    "model_hands"    "models/weapons/c_models/c_heavy_arms.mdl"
    "localize_name"    "TF_Class_Name_HWGuy"
    "speed_max"        "400" //default 230
//    "health_max"        "100"
//    "armor_max"        "400"
    "health_max"        "400"
    "armor_max"        "0"

    // Grenades.
    "grenade1"        "TF_WEAPON_GRENADE_NORMAL"
    "grenade2"        "TF_WEAPON_GRENADE_MIRV"

    // Weapons.
    "weapon1"        "TF_WEAPON_FISTS"
    "weapon2"        "TF_WEAPON_SHOTGUN_HWG"
    "weapon3"        "TF_WEAPON_MINIGUN"
    
    //Thirdperson
    "cameraoffset_forward"    "85"
    "cameraoffset_right"    "25"
    "cameraoffset_up"    "0"


    AmmoMax
    {
        "tf_ammo_primary"    "200"
        "tf_ammo_secondary"    "32"
        "tf_ammo_metal"        "100"
        "tf_ammo_grenades1"    "1"
        "tf_ammo_grenades2"    "1"
    }    

    // Death Sounds
    "sound_death"                "Heavy.Death"
    "sound_crit_death"                "Heavy.CritDeath"
    "sound_melee_death"            "Heavy.MeleeDeath"
    "sound_explosion_death"            "Heavy.ExplosionDeath"    
} 


I would greatly appreciate assistance with this.

Thanks.

This might be a little-bit "off-topic", but is there a down-side to altering the .CTX files? Do client's have to download them from the server, or anything like that?

No, but they're altered for everyone.
