Crysis Warhead, as Crysis itself is native TH support. However (like Crysis itself) it only seems to work in TH in DX9 mode...I forced it in the command line to DX9...5040 then selectable. ![]() Still got the stretched dot in the reflex sight and the HUD where you have to really look to see...at the edges! ![]() :) much more NK killing fun..more explosions..more vehicles...more fun than the original (IMO so far!) |

'cos, well I don't care about you triple wide guys :P |

is warhead an expansion? or stand-alone? Standalone. I downloaded off of Steam for $29.95 USD. |

Although, I have heard that installing Warhead somehow patches Crysis. I can't confirm since I don't have Crysis installed anymore. |

Runs better than Crysis. BTW - I *can* run 3840x1024 in DX10 without a problem. Issue though for me (whether DX9 or DX10) is quality of lighting. In order to get acceptable FPS in 3840x1024, I have to set Shader Quality to Mainstream and then most of the others I can keep on Gamer Quality. IMHO, Shader Q at Mainstream is a NOTICABLE step down from the two higher levels. If I put Shader Q at Enthusiast or even Gamer, I'm quickly in the mid-teens for FPS which, for me at least, is not enjoyable. If I run at 1600x1200 on my center monitor only, I can put everything at Enthusiast Quality... and man.... it looks nice and it rarely dips into the mid-high 20's. I did have one weird thing happen though. When messing with settings, I was at the first bridge you cross in the first level. With all settings at Gamer Q, I was running in 3840x1024 standing on the bridge and getting about 18FPS. I then saved the game, and then resumed, and my FPS was suddenly in the mid-30's. It stayed that way for about 8 seconds or so while I was looking around.... and then suddenly it went back to 18. Save the game again... and the cycle repeats. I had not changed the game settings.... just saved the game. Bummer is that clearly the hardware has the power to push the pixels at those settings.... but must be some memory/drive issue. Dunno.... :( |

Sweet, whats your performance like with Tri-SLI??? Kay, one of my GTXs was RMA'd so I am running normal SLI ATM: No AA or AF No motion blur; I hate it! Levels of settings: Enthusiast-Gamer-Mainstream-Minimum Note: I guess 'Enthusiast' is equal to Very High in Crysis, though it is available in DX9 @1920x1200: all Enthusiast: 40 to 50 FPS @5040x1050: all Gamer apart from Shaders to Mainstream and Objects to Enthusiast. 30FPS, no dips below 28 but not only goes up inside... 50 ish I reckon I could probably tweak the settings more in TH. And I will when the Tweakguide come sout! But I tell you at the start when you come across a burning village, then sun 'god-rays' etc it is beautiful...especially all enthusiast when I was using 1920x1200 :) |

Great. Still not going to get it with that DRM and limited installs in it. |

Great. Still not going to get it with that DRM and limited installs in it. I dunno. DRM does not bother me that much. Yes... its a PITA.... and yes.... probably doesnt do much to stop hard core pirating..... but it also doesnt interfere with my life all that much in the grand scheme of things.... I'm more concerned about the financial market melt-down... :shock: |
