The ONE AND ONLY ***OFFICIAL*** Crysis thread - SPOILERS!

Sounds like its overheating. Do you have it overclocked? Perhaps try using Rivatuner to set the fan speed at 85% or something.
No just bog standard. Why does it shutdown the PC only in Crysis & Jerico as well for some reason but its ok in all those other games??
 
You have to go to Games in the Vista Start menu (thats under your pic on the start menu), and right click on Crysis in there. You wont get the option anywhere else.

When I do this I get some error message about No Associations Created...please create an association...blah blah...anyone get this...got a solution? I cant start it in DX9 or DX10.
 
i dont have that option on any of my shortcuts/in the main crysis folder. know why that is? really doing my head in now, as i want to run in DX9 with tweaks, not DX10 :(


If you create a shortcut to the either bin32 or bin64 crysis.exe, just select properties on the shortcut and at the end of the crysis.exe just add -dx9
that will force it to run in dx9 mode.
 
Ok Im a total noob when it comes to modding any game, and with 2 kids running round. I just cant consentrate.

Can any with similar specs to me do me a mod system.cfg file (or at least what to put in it)

Please please please.

Thank you kind people.
 
Impressions so far:

Am loving this game. It's right up my alley. I have not reached the Alien section yet, so hoping I will like that too.

I am running everything high, except shadows (medium) in DX10 currently with very few tweaks and its smooth.

I was a little underwhelmed with the demo, but the more I play it the more I think they have done a great job.

And for those who are wondering about multi-core support, it is using all 4 of my cores very nicely. Of course, the cores are not maxed, but I say thank God to that - hopefully it means I have a couple of years before it starts showing any signs of age.

Could not even sleep late today cause I wanted to get back to this :)

What res you running at and what tweaks are you using?
 
I had my first go on the full version of the game last night, despite the poor fps I have been finding it very enjoyable, I really took my time creeping around the villages taking people out one by one, was good fun,

I've just got into the mines where you have to save some hostages, how far into the game is that ?.

Not very far, second level :)
 
Im on the part on the cruiser ship now, where you get attaked by the aliens and have to fend them off with a gause rifle. TBH i love the game, the story etc but the FPS has just gotten unbearable. I dont want to turn the graphics down because ive playing it so far with everything on high and its just depressing lol. So im probably going to call it a day and replay the game when i have a better card !
 
I have finished the game, and was a dissapointed with everything after getting into the mountain. The AI on the first 'boss' there is terrrible, with him standing shooting at the box I was stood on whilst I repeatedly shot him in the head, worst AI I had seen in a long time. The levels from then on were dissapointing with the final battles being frustrating, walk along endless corridors press button, walk back.

This is in no way a worthy successor to Farcry except in respect of the visuals, but the actual game was a lot shorter and far less challenging. Off to try Soldier of Fortune Payback next, see if that is any better!
 
my 8800gt @ 660 Core, 1700 Shaders, 1800 Memory (900). Is running crysis at a frame rate of 30 frames @ 1680x1050, sometimes dips to 25+ and sometimes mid 30's. i find it very playable at those frame rates and doesnt bother me at all. Everything is on high. Graphics are still immense. but not using any filtering.

But so far im not too bothered as their are hardly any visible jaggies. AA and filtering is not needed in my opinion. but i guess it would look a lot better. might try it on 700 core 1750 shaders.

How far have you got? the further into the game the more laggy it becomes, had to put shadows down to medium.

Just took this shot, amazing :eek:

Bah, hate the game so far lol.
Wont load the 64bit version (yes i paid for it) just crashes.
Gamespy is the worst thing ever invented by man, i must have 10 accounts by now, non of which ever work on any new game, its the most pointless thing ever why its needed i will never know /rant
 
In the 2nd level, how do I extract the hostage? I have found her, and Psycho has looked after her while I destroyed the tanks, but the green dot on my map is still over the town hall, and I have nothing left to do there. Help!
