How to turn off ragdolls? So dead bodies disappear?

[NewKleer]

Its possible to increase FPS around 10% on spammy maps by changing ragdoll_sleepaftertime 3.5f to 0.0f. However, this means that dead ragdolls/bodies stay where they die.

Is there any setting that turns off ragdolls completely, ie so someone dies they disappear right away?

i think the command to do this in CSS is cl_ragdoll_physics_enable "0", but that command is not in FF.

There is a good reason there is nothing like this in FF - if ragdolls disappear instantly, and a ragdoll sticks around for a while, then you know it is a cloaked spy. It would be considered a cheat in my book.

Unless of course the Spy's fake corpse disappears too, then I guess it might be considered alright...

well i assume the spy's corpse is no different from other bodies, so i dont see why it would act any different to normal dead bodies.

even a setting to just make the body fall to ground but without ragdoll effect/physics which is taxing on FPS. ie with ragdoll_sleepaftertime 0.0f the body stays midair etc which then becomes confusing/blocks view etc

there are these server-side settings, but on a lan server they didnt seem to have any effect:
g_ragdoll_important_maxcount : 2 : , "sv", "rep" :
g_ragdoll_maxcount : 8 : , "sv", "rep" :
