I recently made a low end graphics config file for my old HP Pavilion DV6 laptop. This thing struggled to run Crysis on Medium, but I set out with.
- Installation guides for the Crysis tweaks and mod presented in this video:
- UI elements and enemy language tweak
- Go in CrysisGameConfig
- Look into the files
- diff_normal.cfg
- ai_UseAlternativeReadability =
- Change the value to 0
- Should look like this:
- This change will make Koreans speak Korean, rather than English with an accent
- The following actions are not needed if you don't mind the user interface stuff (grenade indicators, highlighting the attacker)
- Next, find the following line:
- g_difficultyLevel = 4
- Save
- This change will remove grenade indicators, attacker highlight and crosshairs. As far as I'm aware you can't configure each element individually.
- You're not done yet.
- Inside the file select and copy all of the contents (CTRL+A, then CTRL+C)
- Open diff_bauer.cfg
- Inside the file select all the contents, then paste what you copied (you should overwrite with the contents of the previous difficulty you were on)
- Save
- I had the game constantly reset the difficulty to delta even though I started a new game on Normal. While this is not a great solution, it will get the job done.
- Go to your Crysis folder (example - E:GamesCrysis) NOT the one with the exe
- Create a file called Autoexec.cfg (make sure it's not Autoexec.cfg.txt)
- Open with notepad
- Paste the following
- g_ragdollMinTime 999
- e_decals_life_time_scale 50
- Play around with the values if you wish (with the exception of con_restricted 0)
- Save
- If you want to look into more tweaks be sure to check this guide:
- MODS (in recommended order of installation)
- BulletShells by Joshuahoeth
- At the end of the shortcut command add -mods BulletShells
- It should look similar to this [IT'S JUST AN EXAMPLE!]:
- E:GamesCrysisBin64Crysis.exe -mod BulletShells
- Note that some digital distribution versions don't come with a 64 bit exe of the game, but you can get it here:
- http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Crysis#64-bit_binaries
- Run the game using the shortcut
- http://www.moddb.com/mods/tactical-expansion-mod
- Below is a guide to isolate the blood improvement related files, for the experience seen in the video.
- If you want to play with the entire mod keep in mind that the BulletShells mod will not work and there won't be a need in a separate mod for bullet penetration since the function already exists in Tactical Expansion Mod.
- First of all, back up your Levels folder (important!). Can be found in:
- Extract the contents of Tactical_Expansion_Mod_V1.1.rar
- Run the installer
- After the installation finished restore your original Levels folder and overwrite the changes done by the mod.
- Go to
- Open Tactical-Expansion.pak (can be opened using 7zip or Winrar)
- Extract the contents
- Go to wherever you extracted the contents
- Go to
- bullet.xml
- Paste it in (assuming you are using the modfolder of BulletShells)
- Go back to wherever you extracted the contents of Tactical-Expansion.pak
- Go to libs folder
- Copy the entire MaterialEffects folder
- Paste it in
- Reality Enhancement Beta mod by solecist
- Below is a guide to isolate the bullet penetration function
- If you want to play with the entire mod, keep in mind that BulletShells will also not work, and I assume trying a combination with Tactical Expansions Mod will not work very well.
- Extract the contents of rebeta1002.zip
- Open and extract the contents of zz_reality1.pak (can be opened using 7zip or Winrar)
- Go to wherever you extracted the contents
- Go to
- 50bullet.xml
- FYBullet.xml
- LightBullet.xml
- ShotgunShell.xml
- SniperBullet.xml
- TagBullet.xml
- Paste them in (assuming you are using the modfolder of BulletShells)
- CrysisModsBulletShellsGameScriptsEntitiesItemsXMLAmmo
- Obviously create the missing folders and make sure there are no typos
- Enjoy the bullet penetration
- http://www.moddb.com/mods/crysis-maximum-immersion-mod
- Simply follow the instructions provided in the readme files. Keep in mind though that you don't need to download and install patch 1.21, that's the version of the digital distribution copies.
- The test map I used is Physis III, which is pretty fun and very much recommended
Instructions
1. Unzip the .zip file.
2. Place anywhere you want.
3. Run the .exe (run as adminstrator to be safe)
4. In-game make sure you choose the DirectX version you want
Notes
1. Program will autodetect and existing system.cfg or autoexec.cfg files in the Crysis 2 root directory.
2. Program places any settings found in any existing system.cfg or autoexec.cfg fle and apply them.
3. Program will delete those existing files and replace with own generated file.
4. If crashing try running the .exe as administrator.
5. You will still have to choose your DirectX version in-game
Version 2.0.1 notes
*added tooltips to all drop down boxes
*tweaked the GUI so it doesn't look as terrible
