About one and a half years ago, Crytek shocked the PC gaming world with its first-person shooter Crysis - not only with its beautiful and impressive graphics, but also with hardware requirements which were both out of this world. Today, it is still a very popular game, partially because of its expansion Crysis Warhead, and more than likely since hardware is finally catching up to the insane amounts of polygons this game is able to draw on your screen, too. Besides that or maybe because of that, there exists a very active modding community for it, creating configuration files to squeeze additional fps out of it, building custom maps, or other mods to change the look and feel of the game. Today, I am presenting you one of these mods, called: Real Lifesis , developed by Hawkeye|Puppy over at Crytek's official modding portal, Crymod. What's so special about this, you ask? Well, this is not your standard configuration file that tweaks a few settings (although there comes one included with this mod, too), but it is a so-called "ToD modification". ToD stands for "Time of Day" and by using a custom one, Real Lifesis basically alters the whole atmospheric lighting to make Crysis look much more realistic. Therefore, Hawkeye|Puppy had set himself this main goal: "I have set the task of creating a Full-Day Time of Day file, that brings Crysis as close to photorealism that you can get. " Have a look and decide for yourself, whether he was able to succeed or not: In order to get Crysis to look as nice as that on your PC as well, just follow these step-by-step instructions: 1) Install Crysis (the location/directory does not matter). 2) Download the installer for Real Lifesis, here. 3) Start the installer by double-clicking it. 4) Click on "Accept" and then "browse", in order to select the folder in which you installed Crysis. ("D:\Crysis" for example) 5) After the installer is finished and exits, browse to your game folder. 6) Open your Crysis folder and browse to the subfolder "\Game\Levels". 7) You should see the following list of files in there: RealLifesis_Blink1.exe, RealLifesis_Blink2.exe, RealLifesis_FG1.exe, RealLifesis_FG2.exe, RealLifesis_ToD1.exe, RealLifesis_ToD2.exe 8) Choose one of these files to install the ToD modification Real Lifesis. Under Vista install it by selecting "Run as Administrator" (right-click). (I, personally, recommend RealLifesis_ToD2.exe.) 9) Done. Start Crysis and enjoy it. Having played with these different versions of Real Lifesis for a while already myself, I can recommend you one particular console command that might make your life a lot easier, in case you don't like the heavy blur effect this modification uses: "r_depthoffield". The default value, when you install Real Lifesis, is set to 2. Try "r_depthoffield 1" or "r_depthoffield 0" in the in-game console, accessible by using the " " key, to reduce the blur effect or to turn it off completely. Of course, you can just add this command to the autoexec.cfg, which this game creates in the Crysis folder, and don't worry about it anymore, the next time you start the game. (This modification was created by Hawkeye|Puppy, the config and Cvar files by Helder Pinto [HP], and last but certainly not least, the installer by zeropoo. It was only designed for Crysis and does not work properly with Crysis Warhead.) Realistic_ReShade. A ReShade Preset that gives the game an overall, more realistic look. Off-site requirements.

In April 2020, Crytek announced an official Remaster of the first Crysis game. And today, the RemasterStudio Team has announced a new graphics overhaul mod for the original Crysis. Furthermore, the team has also released a trailer for this mod that you can find below. Crysis Enhanced Edition features high quality textures (and in some cases 8K textures), better water effects and richer particles. The team has also added indirect sky lighting and fog effects in order to improve the game’s visuals. Not only that, but it has reworked the lighting for all interior areas. As we can see in the following comparison trailer, this graphics overhaul mod brings huge improvements. The new textures look great, and the new lighting system is stunning. Seriously, this appears to be the best way to replay the original Crysis. The downside here is that the mod is put behind a Patreon wall. Unfortunately, there isn’t any public release yet, and we don’t know when the team will release it to everyone. So yeah, that sucks. Lastly, it will be interesting to see whether Crysis Remastered will look better than this mod. Crytek and Saber have not provided any additional details about this official remaster yet. For all we know, Crysis Remastered could be a mere remaster similar to Mafia 2 Definitive Edition. On the other hand, it could be a remaster/remake like Modern Warfare 2 Remastered or Saints Row The Third Remastered. We’ll be sure to let you know about the public release of this mod. Until then, enjoy the following trailer! John Papadopoulos. John is the founder and Editor in Chief at DSOGaming. He is a PC gaming fan and highly supports the modding and indie communities.

  • 1 Tricia Gugler
    Tricia Gugler: Welcome to our first quarter fiscal 2009 earnings call. Today on the call we have John Riccitiello, our Chief Executive Officer; Eric Brown, our Chief Financial Officer; John Pleasants, our Chief Operating Officer; and Peter Moore, our President of EA SPORTS. Before we begin, I’d like to remind you that you may find copies of our SEC filings, our earnings release and a replay of this webcast on our web site at investor.ea.com. Shortly after the call we will post a copy of our prepared remarks on our website. Throughout this call we will present both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP measures exclude the following items: • amortization of intangibles, • stock-based compensation, • acquired in-process technology, • restructuring charges, • certain litigation expenses, • losses on strategic investments, • the impact of the change in deferred net revenue related to certain packaged goods and digital content. In addition, starting with its fiscal 2009 results, the Company began to apply a fixed, long-term projected tax rate of 28% to determine its non-GAAP results. Prior to fiscal 2009, the Company’s non-GAAP financial results were determined by excluding the specific income tax effects associated with the non-GAAP items and the impact of certain one-time income tax adjustments. Our earnings release provides a reconciliation of our GAAP to non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are not intended to be considered in isolation from – a substitute for – or superior to – our GAAP results – and we encourage investors to consider all measures before making an investment decision.

This escapism gives rise to indulgences. Products of such indulgence are the video games people play. Back in the past the term ―game engine‖ did not exist. Back then, video games were considered by most adults to be nothing more than toys, and the software that made them tick was highly specialized to both the game and the hardware on which it ran. Today, video game industry is a multi-billion-dollar industry rivaling even the Hollywood. The software that drives these three dimensional worlds- the game engines-have become fully reusable software development kits. In this paper, I discuss the specifications of some of the top contenders in video game engines employed in the market today. I also try to compare up to some extent these engines and take a look at the games in which they are used. Keywords – engines comparison, engines overview, engines specification, video games, video game engines I.

In contrast, synthetic representations of these environments used in simulations typically have had little support for dynamic effects and run-time changes. Advances in computer graphics research and innovations in game technology now allow for real-time dynamic simulation of specific features, such as physics-based building destruction or particle-based terrain deformation. However, widespread application of these algorithms and techniques in the context of military training and mission preparation is complicated by the additional requirements imposed by the distributed and heterogeneous nature of military simulation technology, such as the need for correlation and coping with specific limitations of (legacy) simulators. In this survey, we review the state of the art of methods and techniques for dynamic synthetic environments and discuss their applicability and current limitations in the context of distributed interactive simulation.
