Model Detail resets to high

[whiteriot]

Model detail in source games randomly resets to high after I've set it to low. It does not reset 100% of the time, more like 98% of the time. This occurs after quitting the game. High is the recommended setting for my system in DoD:S, CS:S, and Portal. I do not own tf2.

system specs: early 2006 intel iMac, 1.83GHz intel core duo, 1 gig of ram, ati radeon x1600, snow leopard 10.6.4

This sometimes happens to me with other graphics settings.

I'm on an iMac slightly newer than yours (early 2007) with a 2 GHz C2D and 2.5 gigs of RAM. Other specs are the same.

I have the same issue with just about every Source game at the moment. I'm currently running a late 2009 MBP 13"; 2.26ghz, 4GB of RAM, 9400m.

Yah, I have the same problem with some settings some times.

Does the same thing to me sometimes. Does it stop when you disable the steam cloud?

I have the same problem too. For me it's always Model detail and Reflection that gets reset to High.

When I join TF2 via the Friends List the settings are reset to High too. So I don't join via that anymore.
