I know this has been yelled at before but I want to personally understand fully how this is bad, this command is nothing compared to DOD ex_i????p command, where you see players before they come through the door, sorta like lag thingy.
As for NS I find it IDIOTIC how people can say r_drawviewmodel is an advantage, to that extent I can compare it to the common HL command max_fps, fix that at a 50 frames so we all get a max of 50 Frames, so no one will have a higher frame rate.
r_drawviewmodel - people whine and say it gives an advantage that it allows you to see more, I think those who whine are jsut to lazy to keep guard on screen, r_ command is a great way for low end users to get a few extra frames with tweaking, with that gone and mp_consistancy gone, this mod has become like dod, non 56k(low end user) friendly
<b>I would like calm and reasonable reason/opinions, I don't want no lame 1 word post/flame/useless whine just to up your post count</b> <b><span style='color:red'>THINK BEFORE YOU POST, I want to read useful post</span></b>

"Also, CS is not the greatest realism mod of all time. It's like playing a dumbed down version of an airsoft round."
Reason why you think it is an advantage and how does it affect you?
It's an advantage because by default it's on. And by removing it, you can gain a better view of your environment than those who are playing with it on.
And the advantage is enough to create a definite change than that of one playing with default models.
If you're having FPS problems please try the other methods, lowering your resolution, or even using the communities low poly packs. Please try those before resorting to questionable means. Anyways, you're probably not going to see a significant boost by getting rid of the view model.
I also suggest MonsE's tweaking guide <a href='http://www.readyroom.org/perfgde_2.html' target='_blank'>here.</a>
Link, Sirus? I have hardcore issues with fps, moreso with stuff like GFX and fog/smoke.
Is there anyway to turn that down or off? More of the surrounding ones like in Nancy, than the corridor in Hera where it heavily effects game play. I have trouble with stuff like heal spray and stuff, and the clouds; one lerk with umbra, three healspraying gorges, and my fps goes down to sub 15.
In short, don't use this to boost your fps. Use other methods. It's locked in 2.0 anyway, so you might as well get used to it now.

Well said.
