Team Fortress 2 mandatory online

Normally Team Fortress 2 requires you to connect to the EA servers. However, you can play certain maps with a bypass.

  1. Right click The Orange Box in the game list (game, NOT data) and press Open Install Folder.
  2. Go to USRDIR/GAME/TF.
  3. Create a folder named CFG.
  4. Create a file in CFG named MODSETTINGS.CFG with the following:
map_commentary MAPNAME
exec CONFIG.PS3.CFG

MAPNAME must be replaced with a map that has developer commentary:

  • cp_gravelpit
  • cp_well
  • tc_hydro

Maps without commentary will crash after a class is selected. Pressing start makes the game try to reconnect to EA online again.
