Turning off vsync and set developer to 1 or 2 allow the game to act as you had more than 100 fps.
Real fps are still what your monitor/resolution can support, but you can have advantages as faster game reactions :

-lower flashed time
-climb faster some walls
-faster crosshair resize
-faster moves in the air (noticable with low gravity or high airaccelerate)
-may be more...

That cvar guard sets it when you join and won't allow you to type the cvar in game at all or even exec a config with it.. It works I have tested and tried changing my settings in game it won't let me.. Doesn't just set the cvar it blocks it from ever being executed after it changes it. Heck it even says that cvar is blocked if I type it to see what my setting is.

Suppose cvar guard set your cvar "developer" to 0, you just have to do what follow to set it to another value :

Lauch your game.
Type this in console :
developer 1
Then type :
alias developer ""
Then join the server.

You just have blocked the cvar as cvar guard will try to to when you join the server, but cvar guard will fail as you have already blocked it.

O.K not following you but I will try what you said..
the only thing I never did was type alias developer "" which I don't think will work.

What I did do is this.

I go into the server with developer 1 enabled.
I go into see what it is set at. I pull down console and type developer and hit enter
then it says that command is blocked
then it says developer 0 is what it is set at
so I type developer 1
then it says that command is blocked
I type developer to see what it is set too
then it says that command is blocked
then shows developer 0 being what the cvar is set too.

i dono if u tried any of these plugins but i use developer 1 to gstrafe hela fast and some servers have a plugin that sounds like any of these ones. basicly wen i join the server, after like 5 seconds or sumthin a message pops up sayin i either change it to watever the server specifies or i wil b kickd. and it gives u (X) amount of seconds to do so or auotmatic kick

Doesn't developer 1 require sv_cheats 1? and changing gravity doesn't need sv_cheats 1..so...?

[Halflifeplayer]

developer one doesn't need sv_cheats enabled. Gravity is something only the server can change so has nothing to do with sv_cheats.

[hazard1337]

It was posted that this was used in scoutzknivez, commonly with low grav. I thought the server had sv_cheats 1 on because, I dunno if its 1.6 or Source only, you need it to turn developer on, and they had it on because they thought the grav needed it.

I tried it on my half life server. and the cvar guard work I couldn't turn developer on. I also tried it with cl_updaterate too and it wouldn't let me change it. I must be doing something wrong cause the cvar guard is working perfectly for me I can't seem to find away around it like you say there is.

Oh and for developer 1 to work in source I believe you are right hazard1337. sv_cheats need to be enabled. Old half life and 1.6 CS you don't tho.

Yes, cvarguard works very well, I have been using it for months now to force all sorts of client side cvars. I mostly use it to force and lock the CAL league cheat cvars and to set some cvars that boost clients ping and raise their FPS.
