So there seem to be some questions about replacing config files and the config not loading properly.
There seems(not confirmed) to be a problem when loading some configs into your game. Where you replaced the ShooterEngine.ini to a new (fps)config but it not being loaded/nothing changes. The problem seems to be the config being ignored by the game as there are some new cvar restrictions added.
The fix:
- Remove the ShooterEngine.ini completely from the Config folder and start the game after doing so. This forces DB to make a new .ini
- Close the game
- Open your (fps) config(the config you want the settings from) and CTRL+F '[SystemSettings] and copy that section.
- Open the fresh ShooterEngine.ini that DB made and paste the [SystemSettings] you copied over the section in the fresh config.
- Save the file and put it on Read-Only
Should fix the problem, worked for some others who asked me. (if you have this problem and it worked for you please confirm in the replies so I have some idea if it really works for everyone :P)

If i get this problem i'll let you know.
I've done exactly what you said above, i think i'm using your cfg, but I don't have the crosshair, or the fps. Is the yellow crosshair a command, and what are you using to draw fps?
I think you have to enter this command every time you start the game so I use a bind for it(this bind also sets some visual settings. According to twidi, it improves the fps a little and makes the colors "better".
For the stat fps without the other settings use
the crosshair can be set via the menu->game
