No wonder the "but can it run Crysis?" Meme is still a thing, even 10 years later, IMO Crysis 1 hasn't age a bit, still looks fantastic and Cryengine 2 still makes good looking scenes, from what i've seen the modding community of Crysis do.

 

edit: haha has i posted this jaxa used the Meme, funny coincidence. :D

Not only a meme :D

Task is not so much to see what no one has yet seen but to think what nobody has yet thought about that which everybody see. - E.S.

If anyone is interested, these are my simple&basic quality tweaks (added in Crysis root\Game\system.cfg) on top of the "Very High" preset (with Motion Blur disabled)

 

con_restricted=0
sys_budget_sysmem=4096
cl_crouchtoggle=1
g_ragdollMinTime=1500
*SEE POST BELOW*
The new Global Ambient Lighting + POM shader package (*Remove the shadercache file* in the Crysis root\Game AND *the compiled shaders in your personal documents* folder): http://www40.zippyshare.com/v/7qI4lzvf/file.html
Remember to force the Anisotropic Filtering via GPU control panel for Crysis(64).exe

Well, NEW more balanced configs for game.cfg and geometry quality/density:

 

1)

//Default Very High - NO CHANGES

 

2)

r_TexturesStreaming=1
e_lods = 1
e_detail_materials_view_dist_xy = 2048
e_detail_materials_view_dist_z = 128
e_view_dist_ratio = 100
e_view_dist_ratio_detail = 50
e_view_dist_ratio_vegetation = 100
e_vegetation_sprites_distance_ratio = 2
3)
r_TexturesStreaming=0
e_lods = 0
e_detail_materials_view_dist_xy = 4096
e_detail_materials_view_dist_z = 256
e_view_dist_ratio = 200
e_view_dist_ratio_detail = 100
e_view_dist_ratio_vegetation = 200
e_vegetation_sprites_distance_ratio = 4

As you can see the geometry is the real killer @Very High Settings:

High values of e_vegetation_sprites_distance_ratio can result in lighting system glitches (and it seems that is NOT simple to disable the sprites impostors for vegetation).

 

So the best choice is:

 

e_view_dist_ratio_vegetation = 100
e_vegetation_sprites_distance_ratio = 2

 

OR for max quality

 

e_view_dist_ratio_vegetation = 200
e_vegetation_sprites_distance_ratio = 4

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
