Holy smokes! Has anyone seen this Crysis mod video?

AdladUK · 8 Nov 2007 at 10:22

Saw this on another forum...

Creator's specs: OCed Q6600, 8800 Ultra

And for background info:

Then they posted this video of someone who had unlocked the game to full HQ settings:

Big difference.

Now that looks quite nice. No more than 20fps with an 8800ultra though. Ouch.

People are saying it makes Crysis look how it should (how the original trailer looked)

Here's another link to the video:

Just seen the video- sure I seen it elsewhere. The site you got it from does it state what res the guy was playing at ? AA etc ?

Random_23 · 8 Nov 2007 at 10:43

Wonder if my GTX will cope with this at a lower res.

Yeah, it just says DX10 32bit VeryHighSpec HDR

Not sure who made the vid, I love the ending though

No idea m8

It's just a setting file that I presume you change Crysis too

As AMAZING as that looks...why is the foliage constantly moving?! It's like it has a life of its own. Very odd, and now that I've noticed it I find it very distracting!

Wind?
If you hate moving foliage never play STALKER. The ground is a chuffing cyclone of moving grass... looks awful.

Wind ? Christ, people want a game thats realistic and moan when its made! Give it a rest.

If you dont like it play it on low settings or use the tweak guide website to find the console command to disable wind effect's

Give it a rest?! I think I've made about three posts on this game in total. I couldn't care less about it to be honest. I don't want a game that's realistic, i want one that has a good story and is great to play.

If you're talking about realism; with that amount of trees in the way I wouldn't think any wind would even get through let alone move every single bit of foliage. Besides, even if it was wind..why aren't they being blown about rather than taking on the characteristics on a wibbly-wobbly jelly!

The korean's don't seem to protest much about being shot in this video. It's like somebody slipped a tranquiliser in their morning coffee and it has suddenly kicked in.

You're right. The game should feature fully functioning weather systems. A game that looks this good should be able to generate gusts of wind based on differences in air pressure and coriolis force. Maybe crytek can add in self evolving hurricanes, tropical storms and tsunami's while theyre at it. Then we can all enjoy a slightly more realistic jiggle of leaves on our 30ghz deci-core systems with quad SLI geforce 12 series.

was thinking that as well. I think the AI will be what lets Crysis down (that and the jelly flowers!), some of the videos we've seen have been horrendous. Fingers crossed they've fixed it for the final release.

Go you! Perhaps if they weren't promoting it like it's the be-all and end-all of all PC games then perhaps i wouldn't have mentioned it. Same goes for some people on here; quite happy to big it up as the greatest thing that will ever be, yet when someone picks the tiniest of holes...well, they do what you just did.
