I'm new to this game, but besides the in game graphical tuning is their anything I can do to make the game look better. Maybe turn AA at least up to x8, make textures better, and draw distance more realistic. I already play it at 1920 x 1080 with everything on full and running it in high detail is definitely possible.

    i find the game pretty enough with the ingame settings, i dont know how to make it look even better, but damn you must have a nice graphics card to be able to run it on max settings :o

    It actually kinda average, but OC ftw!! =)
    Crysis runs at about 30 fps ultra settings with x8 AA @ 720p. I don't know if that's good, but it looks nice to me.

    Same for me... My laptop has a very poor graphic card, and still, it looks pretty well!

    I think PW is very kind to older machines unlike a lot of mmo's.

    If you got ATI its easear. just start ATI catalist, 3D setings and click on All setings. jou can get int there by clicking on every event on 3D setings too but this is esasier. top up is SMOOTH VIZION HD Anti-aliasing, Uncheck use aplication settings. now its set to owerwrite AA setings. set AA as you want (i have EAH4670 seted to 8x edge detect and avarenge i have 25fps). set there anistropic filtering, mip map detail(its distanced textures) adaptative AA... etc.. BUT enable catalist AI (uncheck it to enable).. click to apply and ok.. CQ you have AA sucufluly enabled! and.. its suposted to set bloom to avarenge level...

    Now Nvidia... its more complicated bud it have differnet setings on every application.. Start Nvidia control center 3D setings and set it there.. or at advanced setings.. its a long time i dont remeber how exactly sorry...

    If you dont understand something feel free to ask on skype/icq... yeah.. and sorry for my english, i cnow, its horrorible...

    the game enige is a little outdated, unfortunately you won't get it much better even by tweaking a lot of things.

    The main problem is the 2d slapped onto a 3d framwork thing, I don't know the fancy technical names but look at the trees and plants, they are all flat 2D textures thats just stuck on a framework and they rotate to always face in your direction. It's only when you get on top of things that you see its actually wafer thin.

    If they where to make the whole world full 3D you'd need a much higher spec system to run the game tho, so I guess its better money wise that it looks a little ugly but almost everyone can play it.
