how to lower the graphics and boost performance!
SO, i see another sale has risen and as usual many of you are struggling to run this game and would probably like to access the advanced graphics settings right? RIGHT? well look no further guys because post proccessing, shadows, draw distance, max framerate and all of that stuff can easily be accessed and heres how to get that clarity and boost them frames :)

1 go to your crysis folder in program files and find the one entitled system.cfg and open it
2 copy these script lines above the line g_language = English


sys_spec_gameeffects = 1
sys_spec_objectdetail = 1
sys_spec_particles = 1
sys_spec_physics = 1
sys_spec_postprocessing = 0
sys_spec_shadows = 1
sys_spec_sound = 1
sys_spec_texture = 1
sys_spec_water = 1
g_skipIntro = 1
cl_fov = 100
pl_movement.power_sprint_targetFov = 80
r_DepthOfField = 1
r_MotionBlur = 0
r_MotionBlurShutterSpeed = 0.0000
g_radialBlur = 0
cl_zoomToggle = 0
r_UseEdgeAA = 1
r_TexMaxAnisotropy = 1
r_PostMSAA = 0
cl_crouchtoggle = 1
r_ColorGrading = 1
r_SSAO = 0
r_VSync = 0
e_shadows = 0
g_enableInitialLoginScreen = 1
r_HDRBloomMul = 0
r_HDRBrightLevel = 0
r_MultiGPU = 1
g_useHitSoundFeedback = 2
sys_MaxFps = 60
r_DrawNearFoV = 100
r_NightVisionBrightLevel = 0
r_NightVisionCamMovNoiseAmount = 0
r_NightVisionCamMovNoiseBlendSpeed = 0


3. adjust according to your preference "1" means on and "0" means off :) except multicore gpu where 1 means 1 and 2 means 2. it works just like basic html does real simple.

4. save and play :)

This is perfectly allowed and legit and will not get you banned Crysis was intended for adults under the impression that we would know how to set up our games this way since crytech never set out to make games only the engine. check out all the mods being done on google mod tools are also free and you can even learn how to set up and host your own custom multiplayer server on your PC.

hope this helps the less privaliged PC owners like myself here :)

You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Graphics were fine, at a nice fast framerate under default settings. But soooo much rubberbanding. x.x

your most welcome :) just be sure to check the ping on servers. another helpfull hint and this applys to all games is that shaddows are extreme cpu/gpu consumers and the most common cause of errors, conflicts and incompatabilities with your hardware. turning them down or off boosts the framerate of any game dramatically. happy fragging
