Steam just updated the TF2 software and both reset the launch specifications, but also the fonts are unreadable as they are in Portal, and I can't see fonts in the server list anymore.
What is the best launch items to make the fonts work again?
Any help would be appreciated.
Oh, and the sound stopped working as well...
I have up-to-date TF2 and the fonts still show for me. The font issue was never solved by a launch option to the game, it was solved by a hack in our code. The hack needs to be enabled with a registry setting. Within the key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\AppDefaults\hl2.exe\Direct3D] the value named tf2_alpha_hack should have the string value "-game tf". You can enable the hack for other games that need it, like Portal and HL2:Ep2 by adding additional values separated by semi-colons. For example, set the value to "-game tf;-game portal;-game ep2".
