Photo-Realistic Crysis mod AKA Real Life-sis|Orgasmic Crysis - Games

So is this a high res texture mod, or something else?

Looks very good. Spending £1500 on a PC to run it when it doesn't fix the shit gameplay? No thanks.

[QUOTE=133753P34K;14290733]that isn't long at all [img]http://d2k5.com/sa_emots/emot-geno.gif[/img][/QUOTE] Sorry, all we've been reading was Jose Rizal's Noli Me Tangere which is about 150 pages long. Next up is El Filibusterismo which is about 300 pages long.

lol contrast I don't know about you guys but the sky isn't white when I look up, the only remotely realistic pics here are the few beach/forest lake pictures towards the upper-middle of the post the plants are good I suppose, but the off-looking "manmade" objects in the screenshots ruins the illusion

Yeah, but let's see it in motion.

Holy BALLS

the ground still looks like ass but cool nonetheless

Photorealistic means as real as a photo, a camera does not work the same way as an eye. You can get the glowing white sky easily with a camera, but a eye will never see bright white skies unless something is screwed up or you are in a snowy environment and its cloud covered.

Holy shit...that can't be real...

DUMMKOPF ALERT

[QUOTE=Hunterbrute;14289327]Actually you can make it render in real time, for the price of about 5-20 frames depending on your computer. Realtime relfections are part of the Crysis source code, you can also make mirrors, but those will kill anyone's PC. So he has some custom skins, who cares?[/QUOTE] I was just pointing out that he couldn't of done the mod purely with ToD, nothing wrong with that. But these images definatly have a lot more modified than the time of day lighting. Also, no. Real-time reflections are possible with crysis, as a matter of fact it's a setting for the water material shaders itself. The problem is the way Crysis uses realtime reflections is that they only update the reflection once every 1-2 seconds, which is why they were never used in Crysis cause it uses too many resources to have it update constantly. There are console commands to force the water to update constantly, but it's pretty glitchy from what I've tested (reflections will randomly disappear or streach massively at certain angles). Also if there are more than two water entities being rendered that have realtime reflections enabled, the relfections will glitch. I guess it'll be possible but I bet this kind of stuff will play in motion a lot worse than these prettied-up screenshots from my experience.

It's... to amazing to be called Crysis alone... we must devise a new name for this game! I reccomend, "Cpt.Awesome: The Adventures Of Fucking Win to the Kick-Ass Star. II: Revenge Of The Best Graphics Ever."

Wow, that looks fucking insane! Some pictures there was no way for me to tell if it was real or not. But the big question is.. can you even play with those textures without a massive framerate drop? Also, does it say "I could have been many buckets" on the tanks barrel? :U (Does it always say that or is it only with this texture mod?)

You would be surprised what a single TOD will do to a map.

so this makes it look like how it was advertised cool

Now that we're at this point, it's quite genuinely terrifying.

You need to go outside more if you think this looks real. It reminds me of those old 3D renders from the past. They'd make a model for some object and place it on a photo. Kinda the other way around. It would look much better if they actually made the non photo textures fit with the photo ones. Looks silly this way.

I came. Bucketloads.

[QUOTE=Bread_Baron;14291849]Now that we're at this point, it's quite genuinely terrifying.[/QUOTE] I want it like it is in Star Trek with a Holodeck and the most realistic interactive environment possible. Maybe then it will be "terrifying". Just imagine a Zombie mod in that.

Do we really need another thread on this? That other thread was already practically about this mod anyway.

Looks as real as Michael Jackson.

I came, about 9 times

Wow. This mod is the one thing that's going to get me to install Crysis once I get my new rig. I wonder how badly it'll lag.

EYE CANDY. thats all i can say.

Holy balls, that's amazing..

Also, since when did crysis have shit gameplay? The Korean parts were excellent, although the alien parts were a little annoying.
