Fixed reflections!

Seriously Cryek its not like you couldn't do these things. This game was supposed to be a showcase for the power of Cryengine 3 so people would buy it and you get loads of money so surely it makes sense to tart it up as much as possible from the get go?

They were hosted on mycrysis about 30 mins ago and I managed to download the hd texture pack from there but now the page has gone. Techpowerup must have got them both downloaded in that time.

They were up on the Crysis site briefly so somebody snagged them. Won't work until the patch is released though.

I wonder how this will work through Steam. Patch auto update then manual download/install of files?
 
Well I've downloaded them and the installer is searching my drives, presumably for the game files. Its possible that it won't even install without the patch.

Edit: Ah no it is installing now.

Edit 2: Oop nope it cant find the file required to patch. I guess you need the update before you can install.
