Crysis, is it still the hardest game on your system?

[EastCoasthandle]

I dunno what mods/skins were used in the screenies, but I'm trying this "natural" mod which changes ToD settings to make it look realistic. I also use an extreme quality config from here:
http://www.crymod.com/thread.php?threadid=31242

I think people would want to play Crysis/Crysis:WH as seen in those pics. Problem is, I haven't seen a "how to" on ToD settings used. So, while it's nice to see what Crysis/WH could have been there is no benefit if the information/mod isn't made available. Which is why I said there are other factors that are important like storyline, game play mechanics, etc. And, IMO, those pics in the link above aren't the same from the earlier pics.

What are you speaking of? I didn't say their weren't from the game how else would they be screenshot. This was discussed in another forum (before it was locked ) and it's not something folk will see when playing the game. Again, from what I've read some sort of extensive commands were used for different renderer effects (dynamic and advanced ToD system or something like that) were you may need full access to the editor. And if you take notice, there is no link to download and try this for ourselves in the link you provided. However, if you do find some sort of mod that will allow this by all means let us know.

they are in-game screenshots

Just with Time of day mods and some have texture mods.

Because that's not Crysis in game. And, I honestly don't see the point if it's not something we can use. From what someone posted, extensive commands were used for different renderer effects. To get shots like that you will probably need access to the full engine editor.

Be that as it may, the IQ isn't what makes the game. It's the:
-storyline
-game play mechanics
-etc

Sorry if I'm stupid, but why does your Crysis look so much gooder than mine (when I had a GTX 280)?

you guys need to look at this. that's is not the crysis that you will see in game.

that is called a Bullshot.

Crysis maxed > GTA IV maxed at a 6 fps difference.

I originally thought they could be bullshots and some could be (there is no information made available on how to mimic these results). However, after reading this thread I thought something else was involved.

They're not "bullshots"

All of the above pics are done with simple ToD tweaks. No asset changes, no modifications to the engine, simply changing a few key variables to make the HDR work in mysterious ways.

so basically a few changes to the config files and you can achieve those results.

FSX is a good one to bring a system to it's knees.

sorry to jerk off topic but is there any mods for crysis which makes it look better

http://www.strategyinformer.com/pc/mods/crysis/mod.html Not even sure if ur system can handle it. These mods enable ultra high settings.

Try these, they should actually tax your system less than Ultra/highest in-game settings. And if you're using the system in your signature, then you can easily handle it. I can play it with the system in my specs at 30-40 FPS with those configs with no AA and 2xAA in some areas.

 

[Marineborn]

so which one the ultra high super graphics or natural, which one would be more taxing ya think> and yes that is my system in my sig which most of that stuff is overclocked quite abit under water cooling

 

[oli_ramsay]

You can use both at the same time. The natural mod is for time of day settings. The other one is to have extreme quality graphics while maintaining a respectable framerate. You could probably even manage 4xAA with your card.

i was talking about the mod in spearmans post

Whats the point if not even a 4870x2 can handle that? I mean thats pretty stupid..Can it or not?

 

[RadeonProVega]

Are there any new games that work your system more than Crysis

Nope, crysis and warhead is not that demanding. If you set the graphics up to high , or very high yes it does become more demanding, but if you have the right rig and set up you shouldn't have any trouble.

The most demanding game i have played as for my rig is concern thus far is l4d.

OFFTOPIC:

Question, how do you get the 3rd person view in crysis and warhead?

 

[oli_ramsay]

That isn't a mod, it's just a config file (7kb). Probably the settings to enable highest detail in XP by the looks of it.

You put -devmode in the shortcut and press F1 in game.

crysis never brought my system to its knees... gears of war has always been my system's nemesis. for some reason i can run crysis maxed out, even ut3(which is on the same engine as GoW) maxed with no problems, but for some reason GoW is rough on my system.

It never did with mine really either. Never played GOW would like to sometime.

stalker clear sky is pretty darn demanding... I would say an equal to crysis.

omfg so true... i was really dissapointed with crysis after all its hype.

True but only for NV cards, ATI cards w/ dx 10.1 have a big advantage in clearsky

 

[RadeonProVega]

One of the most taxing, but for a very good reason:

LMFAO.
