Going to test on Vista x64

[rockthegod]

are u playing at 1024 res ? More.... More..... More..... Keep them coming !!!!! :) The motion blur loooks awesum....

[allwyndlima]

Don't tell me that's 1024x768 on an 8800GTS & that too the 640MB version & such low frame rates.

Someone please test it on mid range 7 series cards too & let me know how the frame rates are.Atleast we can get a rough idea how it will perform.;)

[W i d e S c r e e N]

@quadroplex780
which monitor do u use?




:D:p:cool::-);) this is my 200th post :D:p:cool::-);)

[quadroplex780]

Ya I ran it on the spec in my signature and there is some good news for vista x64 users u will get about 30%-50% boost in framerate but theres also a bad news the 64bit demo exe hangs and crashes most of the time not only me but others at guru3d are facing the same problems with 64bit exe of the demo.
Yes I played it on 1024x768 with every thing set to high DX10 and 4xAA.
I use AOC P9S90 19 inch monitor.

[hemant_mathur]

At what settings are you running it ?

[quadroplex780]

^^read my previous post carefully.

[Cool G5]

Cool man.Post some more.
My machine will die. :(

[Charan]

When will the Final be finally out? :p

[rockthegod]

Crysis is killing the 8 series cards at HQ Dx10 mode... I can't imagine what would happen when they release the directx10.1 patch.... the 8800 series will just get wiped off if they are not in SLi... :P :D

and Quadroplex, can u please post some more good screenshots of the demo.... :)

[quadroplex780]

i mean the game will definitely be unplayable at 1440 x 900.. pooh...
and i dont even have an 8 series card...


any idea how it'll run on 6800 XT 256 MB GDDR3 AGP on 2.8 GHZ P4 HT with 1 GB RAM???

i cant download the demo, im on a dial up!! :(

[Charan]

so whats the config Harvik? :D

[hemant_mathur]

I'll try the 64bit ver on vista.

[Third Eye]

I am currently downloading demo.

Will complete in 2morrow morning.

[bikdel]

SAVED>... just on the the dge :))

perhaps the game is too demanding..

i dont see anything really breathtaking and surprising with the screenshots...
other than the FPS :-P

[Charan]

^^ ho no you dont know Crysis.. those screeshots are nothing compared to what you will see if you have a killer system. Just check out youtube and search for Crysis and you will get to know about it ;)

[Stalker]

20-30 FPS on a 8800GTS :x
is this the OPTIMIZATION crytek had done??

[Third Eye]

^Don't worry bro, you have a killer system. :mrgreen:

[bikdel]

^^^ whoa..... 8800 GTX?.. omigosh.........

hope im the only one with 6800 that too XT out here....

@ charan

perhaps 1024 x 768 is too low for crysis and that maybe why the screenshots look sick.... 1440 x 900 would be better...
could anyone post screenshots at higher res?


what about you STALKER.. could you try it @ 1440 x 900.. after all ur the one who has a GTX :))

[Stalker]

^^well, unfortunately i dont have Broadband :(
i've told a friend to download it for me....might get it on Monday-Tuesday.
will try it out & post the results here.

btw.... quadroplex....did u install the new 169 drivers(meant for crysis)?

[bikdel]

@ stalker

whats the size of the demo anyways...?

lemme try out myself...
jus got a 256 kbps connection... that too by hell lota difficulty :))

[Stalker]

^^1.77 Gb.

I wonder how it will run on my FX5200 on the other comp :razz:
i've heard that the game is playable....at extreme low on a x200 onboard.

[bikdel]

^^^ know what, even my card is FX 5200...:-p
the thing should run.......lol

i just got my frens card for a few days, n even that is barely upto what is needed.......6800xt

1.77 GB?...

wtf..... itll take forever to download that thing.. wonder the size of the game......


couldnt they have just included a smaller ~100 mb package just to check FPS and compatibility...

these guys @ crytekk.. they think veryone got a 2mbps broadband or what? lol

[The_Devil_Himself]

^^I finally have a 2mbps connection.:)

Guys I don't think this game will sell much if it requires that much system resources.This game will kill 8600gt and even 8800gts 320mb.

[Sunny1211993]

no worries,i will get 8800 ultra or 9800 GTX(if it comes) soon.
i hope they will run this game on highest setings.
no doubt abt 9800 GTX but a bit abt 8800 ultra

[deathvirus_me]

Last one is a PNG :D ... running at 1280*1024 , 16x HQAF ,maxed settings ,medium shaders .. medium post processing

[The_Devil_Himself]

@atombomb : abe oye sab birla-tata ki family se nahi hain.Come on man I am talking about the masses and not about the privileged ones who can afford 8800ultra or 9800gtx.

8800gt is coming out soon(oct 31) and it is based on the same chipset as 9800gtx(G92 chipset)......so 9800gtx is not to far away either IMO.

[Sunny1211993]

ABTOM username hai mera.
and will 8800 GT be able to run crysis properly?

[Stalker]

Guys I don't think this game will sell much if it requires that much system resources.This game will kill 8600gt and even 8800gts 320mb.

Exactly......Guess this is gonna be like another 'Far-Cry'.......good graphics but low performance on current cards.

[bikdel]

^^^^ are these screenshots too bad or what... i dont find anything so much taxing on a GPU...

or maybe there are invisible aliens flying all round which have to be rendered :)) lol...

so whats the config Harvik? :D
P5NE-SLI,XFX 8600gt SLI,Core 2 Duo E6550,Kingston 2GB DDR2 ram..

[hemant_mathur]

Played it on Vista x64 at 1440*900 at medium settings. FPS is around 15. Tried the Nvidia drivers 169 but the game just hangs at the opening movies so reverted back to driver ver 163.

[yesh1683]

Today I downloaded CRYSIS demo and it is playable at 800x600 at low settings,,

BUT some particles graphics are corrupted and the some objects are rendred late and also some parts of the weapons and nano suit are missing,, but frame rate is playable [ocassionally it drops very low],,,

i am sure future drivers can fix this problem,,**FARCRY was also having same problem and with new drivers it played very smooth**

and also i am having only 1GB DDR2 533 ram and on Tuesday i am getting 1GB DDR2 667 Ram 2 sticks i will connect it in dual channel mode and see the difference,,

I am really surpriced that i was able to play the game bcoz the EA perticularly listed as integrated chipsets are not supported

if i press detect optimum settings all settings will b set to medium and resolution to 1024

I am running it on XP 32 bit
I am having 64 bit Vista and try to run the game on that bcoz crysis performance increases on 64 bit OS

Can anybody with Nvidia onboard and ati onboard post the reults here

I will post screenshots 2morrow even though its frm low settings

With this board we can enjoy only core gameplay of crysis

[quadroplex780]

I have some good news I am now getting playable frame rates in vista x64 in Crysis DX9 64bit exe at 1024x768 4xAA and everything high.

^^^ what did you change dude...
thats a huge boost in FPS...:))

[Cool G5]

Very good quadroplex. :)
Happy fragging.

[hemant_mathur]

Anyone got those 169 drivers working with crysis on vista x64. ?

[bikdel]

guys.... with CRYSIS out.. i guess its time to rate our grafix card in
Frames Per Hour, instead of Frames per Second.....lol .. :-P

[xbonez]

:))

[hemant_mathur]

Got the game working with 169 drivers .. had to delete some opening movies. Got a FPS increase of 3-4 in medium settings but it still hangs at random places while loading.

[W i d e S c r e e N]

@quadroplex,

the reason behind me asking about ur monitor is that u can do 1600x1200 with that 19' screen of yours.

what resoultion do keep your desktop at?

[quadroplex780]

@quadroplex,

the reason behind me asking about ur monitor is that u can do 1600x1200 with that 19' screen of yours.

what resoultion do keep your desktop at?
At 1280x800@100Hz cause I don't want it flickery(its 75Hz@1600x1200)And most of the games I play is at this res or at 1280x960 with either 4xAA or 8xQAA.

[W i d e S c r e e N]

is the monitor company new i've never heard of it before

[quadroplex780]

^^No its not new-www.aocmonitor.com
Its a very good international brand.

[deadlyvenom]

I played this game on my
amd x2 3800, 2gb ram @ 667 mhz(dual channel),m2n mx motherboard
ati x1950 pro 256mb pci e
17" LG TFT monitor
windows xp sp 1
game settings..
1024 * 768..No AA
everything set to high, except shadows and post processing set to medium
average frames per second 30.definitely playable.
but the game is not up to all that hype :( its like just another FPS with a lot of eye candy.will wait for the full version anyway.hope crytek tweaks it before its final release.

@quadroplex-great results dude..u r a lucky man!

[nvidia]

Hey guys whats "HQ"AF??:D

[Third Eye]

I ran the game on DX 10 and Very High Settings and getting 2.40 fps average fps. :lol:

[xbonez]

Hey guys whats "HQ"AF??:D

i think its High Qualtiy Anisotropic Filtering...(is it?) :confused:

[Third Eye]

Crysis is awesome.Almost everything is pickable.

And never play Crysis on low settings, u won't enjoy it much if u do so. ;)

[Sunny1211993]

toh kya kare??
cant buy a new card at the moment. later maybe.
what ya say abt playin on med settings???
i know the game wud run very badly on 8600 GTS.

[Third Eye]

^You can play it on medium easily.

[nvidia]

I have a XFX 8600GT. At what settings can i play the game in 1024 X 768 resolution??

[Third Eye]

^Medium but it lags on my pc because of my cr@ppy processor.

I have XFX 8600 GT too ;)

[xbonez]

why haven't they added Crysis to Sys Req Labs yet :(

Anyways, what sort of performance can i expect at 1024*768

AMD Athlon 64 3200+
2GB 400Mhz Transcend Dual-Channel
Sapphire X1600Pro 256MB
Asus A8N-VM Geforce 6100 Chipset Mobo

[Third Eye]

why haven't they added Crysis to Sys Req Labs yet :(


http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest

[xbonez]

yeah, just noticed it is there. my PC comes between min. and recommended, so gues i can play it :)

[Sunny1211993]

njoy then.hope i cud also play this game on high settings

[bikdel]

@ xbonez...

id say it will be like medium with shadows and post processing kept low.......
@ 1024 x 768.... and of course No AA... its definitely playable and wont look BAD actually...

hell it runs even on an FX 5200 128 MB @ 640x480 and lowest.....lolz
but nothing will remain of the game at those settings though :))

[hemant_mathur]

I ran it at very high setting .. got FPS of 4-5. Keeping Shaders to Medium i get FPS of 12-15. What else should i lower to increase the FPS ?

[Stalker]

Ok....got the Crysis Demo.

I get an avg of 35-50 FPS at Very High , DX10 settings at a resolution of 1024 x 768 @ 85 Hz 2x AA (i cant go higher coz of my crappy 17" Monitor:( ) in Vista Ultimate 32 bit.

There are some things that i noticed
+ Awesome lighting / water effects
+ Shadows / character faces are well done
+ Destructible Environment:cool:
+ SandBox 2 is AWESOME!!!!:cool:


- Game needs much more optimization!!!
- Birds dont respond to gunfire.
- Vehicles have no damage levels(unlike UT3)....they go from 'brand new' to 'scrap metal':)) once the damage reached 100%
- Your Weapons are somewhat less effective against the enemy.
- Easy & Normal difficulty mode suck! The attackers are highlighted in red...what crap! :mad:
- No dynamic Day & Night cycle :confused:
- The foliage hardly moves when u pass through it. Crytek said that the leaves would bend around the character.
EDIt: The foliage does move....didnt notice it the first time:).

here are a few Screenshots i took....

@ STALKER...

hey why 2x AA... isnt 4x available?....

your monitor has nothing to do with AA....

[Stalker]

@tech_genius
I removed XP long time back :D. But that method will just enable high quality dx9 effects...not DX 10.

@bikdel
yup....i actually meant that i cant do higher than 10 x 7 , coz then the refresh rate is stuck to 60Hz & there is flickering....i later tried with 4x AA....not much of a performance drop...4-7 fps drop.
& i havent tried it out on the 5200 yet. Hows it?:D

Nice Screenshots stalker ;) ,, eagerly waiting for DX10 version.

[Cool G5]

Great stalker.
The second is awesome.

[bigdaddy486]

Ahh! what a graphics.........

[Harvik780]

I tried running this game Demo on 1GB ram and 8600GT SLI(cause one of my ram modules is factory defective,will get it replaced today itself).Due to low ram i get constant hiccups at most settings on high some on medium.This game has poor support for SLI cause i didn't notice any difference in Single Video Card(SLI) and Different settings for SLI.Hope the final build has good support for SLI.
The average settings with my configuration with the settings was 30.

[BULLZI]

hey guyz
wht do u think?

shud i get a 8800GT specially for Crysis? i wanna play at 1440 * 900 with almost every settings max.

[nvidia]

I dont think you can play the game at ma settings with an 8600GT at that resolution.
Go for an XFX 8800GTX if you want to play the game at max settings and 1440 *900 resolution. At this resolution and settings the 8800GTX wil give decent frame rates.

Btw has anybody played the game with an 8600GT?? Please tell me how many FPS you get in medium settings and at 1024*768 resolution?? :D:D:D:D

[Third Eye]

I was getting 1.30-2.40 average fps on my 8600 GT @ VH Settings & 1024x768 Resolution. :lol:

Bullzi: At 1440X900 with almost max. on 8800GT - No

[nvidia]

How many FPS did you get in High settings?(Not Very High) and medium settings?

[BULLZI]

I was getting 1.30-2.40 average fps on my 8600 GT @ VH Settings & 1024x768 Resolution. :lol:

@ BULLZI

1440x900 with ALMOST max on 8800 GT ... YES!!!

[Third Eye]

:(:(

thts sad.

You can run Crysis easily on High Settings @ 1280X1024 Resolution with 8800GT. :)

[hemant_mathur]

I have to turn down shaders for playable fps .. everything else is at high.

[p_d5010]

I get constant 20-30 fps on 1280x800 res at everything high except textures on medium.......i made a customized shading.cfg file and now it looks like i mm playing the game as shown in the official videos :)
Took me 3 hours to customie it for my card........

Also, my proccy is 3000+ so even thats a bottleneck in that 20-30 fps

i have 8600gt 256mb btw

[dOm1naTOr]

@p_d5010
How did ya make the custom config file? I havnt got da demo yet.

Anybody tried it on GF 7 series cards?

And do any magazine like digit, chip or PC world is giving the demo with their DVD this november?

[nvidia]

I dont think any mag is giving it in November. Im sure itll be given in December.

[nvidia]

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just downloaded Crysis demo and i installed it under XP.
But when i start the demo and when the misson is loaded and i get to the ground everything appears to be kinda black and image is not rendered properly.
I have installed the latest drivers under XP but im still not able to use it...

[deathvirus_me]

i'm currently using the 163 drivers. After installing the 169 drivers, my comp reboots suddenly after some time.....any ideas to why this is happening? I think this is a driver conflict. How can i solve this? Has this happened to anyone here?

Where do i save this data???:confused::confused:

[Stalker]

Where do i save this data???:confused::confused:

in My Documents\My Games\Crysis_SP_DEMO\game.cfg
Make sure u back-up your original game.cfg first, just in case.

Remove annoying Startup Videos in Crysis(especially the unskippable Rating ones)
Most of u guys must have done this already, for those who havent:

>Open Crysis Demo Folder.
>Search for .sfd files.
>rename all their extensions to ._sfd(or anything u like) for all files(Trailer_...) you find, EXCEPT intro.sfd (Nanosuit intro Vid at the start of the demo) & bg.sfd(Background video in Menu).
>Start up Crysis!:D

What do you guys think about my config?

The demo was one of the biggest disappointments of 2007 for me.It does not even run smooth on my bros 8800GTS.

I hope u do not expect the game to run smoothly with HQ settings on a 8800 GTS and that too single..... hope u had toned down the settings to match its prowess... the incrysis forums referred to optimal settings for different cards.... and gamespot referred that the game was thrashing the 8800 ultra at 1600x1200 HQ Dx10...... with 15 fps.... :P

Cevat Yerli(whatever his name is)said that an 8800GTS 640MB is what we are aiming at.This card will be able to run crysis at highest possible settings for the release at HD.

No matter what you say Cevat Yerli is a lair,he wanted to boost crysis sales by pre-orders.

And what is the deal with this toning down the settings.My brother can play it smoothly at 1024*768 with 4xAA with everything set to very high in x64 vista.

And BTW my brother is buying an 8800GTS 640MB(last stock of G80 96SP)next month.

Go buy this game and don't tell me you cannot even run it at low on 6800.Who would buy a game that does not perform well(even though its beautiful).

If you buy and 8800GTS 640MB you look for gameplay at HD and not crapHD.

yeah.. one thing is tru tht the game feels still un-optimised.... hope this will be done with in the final release..... About toning down the settings, I was referring that u use the settings as posted on incrysis forums... :)

But... But. But.... I just came upon the following.... a person played the demo on a 7900 GS and OMFG... the graphics and contrast is the best in the screenshots he posted.... just refer to the following thread:

Finished Crysis demo on my rig in siggy at the following setings and got bout 25~30 fps average.

1280*960
AA off
Texture med
object quality medium
shadow low
physics med
shaders med
volumetric effects low
game effects med
post processing med
particle quantity med
water quality low
sound low
No offence, but with shadows and water quality on low, your'e missing out on some of the most beautiful graphical aspects of the game. You can ask STALKER .... he'll confirm what I say.

He had also said that NO current gen card can play crysis to its full potential ( i am assuming the "very High quality" mode) ;)

btw, nobody interested in Sandbox 2?:confused:

Sandbox Editor 2 is awesome. ;)

^^^ that means Crysis will require more than 2GB ram?????

^^I have installed all the updates and crysis already asks you to install it if you do not have it installed.
