:| 1? LOL! :funny2: Your computer was probably not responsive at that time :cpu:

Oh, Skyhawk, I wasn't talking about your system specs and whether you passed it or not, your specs are superb. They are actually better than mine.

Looks good, I just do not want to tweak the game to make it so I cannot play the game at all. Nice find though.

That's ok Karnage, I can't even run it on 'medium' ...

Ah well, it's november now, only 16 more days 'till crysis!

(If my dad will let me get it... I think he might, I've shown him the demo and he seemed receptive to it. Only, he doesn't know it's rated M. I don't really get why, I mean, the blood is turn-off-able and even when on, not that severe. There's violence, but the game actually stresses knowing when not to shoot. There is language though, but nothing worse that what I hear at school... Plus, Crysis is awesome!)

Anyways, here are the top ten things you have to do before you have 'beaten the crysis demo'
10. Level all the buildings you can find and de-forest most of the island with any weapons you can find.
9. Kill a man by shooting out the roof supports he's standing under.
8. make a trail of small fuel cans around the beach to a large stockpile of exploding barrels. (requires editor)
7. Trap the Korean using the outhouse inside, with your grenade with him.
6. Find the Turtle/tortoise. Whatever it is.
5. Cut down the top of a tree and sneak around pretending to be a palm tree.
4. Kill a man with the banana
3. Destroy the hut at the top of the Korean CP by tossing a grenade through the open window, into the refrigerator. (Preferably with hostiles inside hut (I actually managed this once; it was great. (until the flying freezer door killed me.)))
2. Frag men to death with a watermelon :P
1. Make it through the entire level on 'delta'. While holding the turtle. (one of the only ones of these I haven't done yet.)

What other 'must do' crysis tasks do you have?

Get NK to taxi you around - DONE
Get NK to drown themselves - DONE
Mod the Nuke to remove all trees and buildings with the shockwave like in the peacemaker video - DONE
Make 5 AI heli's engage 1 Alien Scout (modded to not be invincible vs AI damage mult) - DONE
Make 500 AI NK, heli's, tanks and vehicles fight 4 modded Alien scouts at night - DONE
Make a whole lot of crazy Explosive barrel videos - 50% DONE
Finish Infiltration: Beachhead - 50% DONE
Finish Contact: Extended - 50% DONE

PS:
OnlineWelten: Apart from the game itselfs plays also the Modding scene an important role for the duration of the success of a game actually. Will there be an Importer/Exporter for the XSI Mod Tool?

Alexander Marschal: We co-operate already closely with XSI and try to make an appropriate Mod Tool available up to the release of Crysis

It comes with the SP Demo.

Go to Program Files\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis SP Demo\Sandbox2 Installer and run the installer.
When it's done installing, go to Program Files\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis SP Demo\Bin32 and run Editor.exe

[@#%]! It seems that the demo will be stopped the day before the initial game is supposed to come out. On November 12th that game will be, indefinitely my in computer.

What I don't like that the devs did was produce a Marketing Strategy by making people get Vista in order to get more out of the game (e.g. Mow down trees, physics after explosions, breakable units etc.)

Only in MP, SP will have all physics for DX9+ users, DX10 is needed for physics in special MP servers.

I can tell you, theres not much differerence between DX9 and 10 in SP, Very high settings can be hacked for XP. difference between DX9 and 10 on very high settings is how fast everything is rendered and some minor details (DX9 is darker than DX10, 10 has more realistic shadowing. etc, just minor stuff)

Extra pair of hands, eh? And he wasn't powerful enough.
Yeah, I found a bug.
The extra pair is pointed to in red, and the regular pair are there in blue.

Interesting, so I can trick my Crysis game into thinking that I have DX10?

No, you can simply enable Very High settings by hacking the settings file.

I'm creating a complete test map, full of all the weapons and vehicles usable at the moment. Also a little village with residents for your destructive insanity... :D

It's more of a test map for me so I can understand how to mod everything in Crysis. But it's still stinkin' fun.

I'll be uploading it soon.

Decided to mess with that Very High on XP thing Karnage posted earlier, here's a comparison of Very High, Medium and then the settings I use. :)

(Just to clear things up, in case anyone is confused, the mod changes the "High" settings into "Very High". ;) )
