Performance Impact: Low (CPU)
cg_cameraOrbitDelay
Sets the delay (in ms) between camera movement updates. Lowering this value to 16ms forces the camera to update 60 times a second, creating a buttery-smooth rotation for high-quality video capture.
💡
Pro Tip
Drop to 16ms when recording cinematic frags — the buttery-smooth 60 FPS orbit is what separates amateur clips from the ones that get millions of views.
