is it fair to use config file remove muzzle flash?

In my reply, I meant "you" as in anybody who changes parameters outside of the game settings can be tagged a cheater and I agree.

You were fishing for an answer that had already been given. Don't change the config. You then argued against that, which provoked my response. You were sounding like you wanted to change things outside of the game settings (you called some of this absurd).

You seem to be tying yourself in knots. If you haven't changed anything great. If you do, you are cheating the system imo be that as, eliminating muzzle flash, recoil or adjusting your field of view or mouse sensitivity . You were looking for justification in changing them beyond what the game menu would allow. You had multiple answers here advising you should not alter configs but you persisted in challenging that. You then went off on one at Zeels answer.

You are clearly trying to push the narrative that I am cheating and at the same time saying you are not.

The sad thing is we pretty much agree on the muzzle flash but you seem to lack knowledge about what the config file is and hence this argument.

@Pantleon I'm sorry. I think I have taken your questions in this thread, to literally in the context of this thread and it's title and not from your standpoint. I have assumed your questions were to lever the argument to justify altering muzzle flash.

I think maybe your questions would have been better served in a separate thread, but I apologise regardless, as I think I've got the wrong end of the stick. I jumped on my soap box of exploiters and cheaters.

My apologies.
