[QUOTE="Ben-Buja"]

Just tried out the blackfire mod but i don't really like it, at least in the first level the lighting and colours seem to be off. Maybe a bit oversaturated.

It's not an improvement over Vanilla Dx11 crysis 2 imo.

mattuk69

Those looks much better than vanilla....

Agreed. Every shot besides his first looks better.

And I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to see stars at night in NY. That's one thing they got correct.

Maldo's texture pack isnt even finshed yet

hes getting a DX11 card so he can work on tessalation on his textures

and we still havent got any great custom maps yet, Crysis 2 still has alot to offer in mods and content

also there is a mod thats more of an idea, not sure if its getting worked on, but its pretty much a remake of Crysis 2 to be more like Crysis 1, someone is allready making a new york map on the scale of Crysis 1

Crysis with mods still beats it due to scale

but im guessing Crysis 2 will overtake it in time due to... well mods

Original looks better in the last two. It's a decent mod though.

ShadowDeathX
I think its more of a preference....

The improvements are quite obvious in these screenshots but I could understand why it would be a matter of preference to some.

Just FYI: There are already a bunch of multi-player and single player projects being worked on by a lot of modders on Crymod. There is a single player custom campaign being worked on, where vehicles have a use =p..

As usual, for the most part it makes it look worse. The textures look good in some pictures, especially the one with the wood. The rest of it sucks though. The lighting is a joke, and the shadows are poop.

I love that the colors are more vibrant though, it's really pleasing to the eye IMO.

Although Crysis 2 is a very colorful fps to start with, compared to other games in the genre.

Color has nothing to do with what I posted, but ok. Considering the trailers for Operation Metro, BF is more than brown. I do love when poeple attack games that are in other people's sigs though, it's quite a laugh.

The first two look great, but the rest: mehh, more based around preference. I'll try it some time this week.. But not as impressive as I was hoping when I clicked the link to this thread.:P

I like the use of contrasting colours in the last two shots compared to the original where it looks like someone put a vomit green filter over the game.

The 570 gets 40+ FPS with high-res textures and DX11 maxed.

That's because it's pretty broken for AMD cards. It causes tesselation numbers to go farther than they should and cripples FPS. Solution is just to turn off tesselation until they fix it.

Yeah, i turn Tessellation off from the drivers so i can still keep POM in the game, that improves performance alot.

And that's in 1920x1200. It should run even better in 1080p. Thanks for the post lol i think with my OC it should run butter smooth.

That's odd. Is Vsync on? Without Vsync my unlocked 6950 always plays above 30 fps. Are those 1 gb 6950's too?

I think it looks awesome. Most of the shots it looks way better, and the others are at least a little better. Some of it is just preference, but some of it is simply objectively better.

I just like that we have so many choices about how our games look on the PC.

Did you really have to respond with that? We all know a jungle is more visually appealing but technically and visually (to some people) Crysis 2 is king.

Some of the MalDo 1.0 textures without Blackfire are better than MalDo 2.0 with Blackfire. For example. MalDo 1.0  MalDo 2.0+Blackfire  MalDo 1.0  MalDo 2.0+Blackfire

Well i'm downloading this right now, i'll see how it runs in dx9. I'll try running it in dx11 without tesselation and see how i go if i get decent fps in dx9 with these mods.
