ALERT:
IF YOU CHANGE THE SCREEN RESOLUTION OR ANY GRAPHICAL SETTING THEN RESTART THE MOD OR ELSE VGUI STUFF WILL CRASH!!!
IF YOU CAN'T LOCATE TFO / THE FORGOTTEN ONES IN THE STEAM LIBRARY THEN USE THE LAUNCHER TO START THE MOD INSTEAD!
EXTRA:
IF YOU GET STUCK THEN CHECK THE HINT(S) FOLDER FOR A SMALL WALKTHROUGH!
PERFORMANCE TIPS:
OPEN AUTOEXEC IN THE CFG FOLDER AND CHANGE THE:
sv_forcepreload "0"
cl_forcepreload "0"
TO:
sv_forcepreload "1"

The TFO Launcher has been included:
To install/use the launcher just export it to any directory, for example your desktop.
You don't need to worry about setting up directories, the launcher checks through your registry. Hence that this means it checks for steam folder path!
Which means non-steam will probably not work!
Error code: "Sourcemods or Steam folder not found!"
If this issue occurs you've most likely installed steam/sourcemods outside the regular or you're using non-steam.
For now the launcher won't support that.
Benefits:
- Allows you to open TFO directly
- Allows you to set specific command arguments, such as -console and +cl_forcepreload 1 and +sv_forcepreload 1 ( performance fixes ).
- Allows you to set extra launch commands if you wish so, check the list underneath for available options!
Changes in v2.3.0 launcher:
- The launcher now saves the console, performance check and the custom command line option so you don't need to re-type it everytime you open the launcher.
