Activate Hidden ‘Ultra High’ Setting in Valve Games
If you just can’t get enough out of your graphics card playing any of the newest Valve Source games there is a hidden ‘Ultra High’ setting that you can activate through the console.
The console is normally where you would enter other commands and cheats. You have to active this under the advanced keyboard settings in the options menu.
How to Activate the ‘Ultra High’ setting in Valve Source Games (Portal, HL2, TF2, etc):
- Active the console under the advanced keyboard settings in the options menu.
- Hit ‘~’ (tilde) to activate the console and enter ‘mat_picmip -3′ to activate the ‘Ultra High’ setting. Feel to free to go lower if you think your hardware can handle it.
NOTE: If this slows your PC to a crawl then you obviously do not have the hardware to run the ‘Ultra High’ settings.

vmcNetFlix Streams Videos to Your Xbox 360
Windows Vista only: Freeware Vista Media Center plug-in vmcNetFlix streams Netflix Watch Now videos to Windows Media Center extenders, including the Xbox 360.

Previously mentioned MyNetflix incorporated all of these features, but so far it does not support streaming to extenders. If you’ve been tempted by the new Netflix streaming box but don’t want to throw down cash when you’ve already got a 360 in your home theater, vmcNetFlix is a sure winner. It’s in beta and still a touch buggy, but it’s very promising. Hit the jump to check out a video of vmcNetFlix in action.
