Arguably the best Crysis video I've ever seen.
 

Physics demo. Absolutely awesome.

Wow really amazing physics. :)

Re: Arguably the best Crysis video I've ever seen.
 

That's a shame. I'm not sure if it's anywhere else. I'll have a look.

Must have taken days to do.

Re: Arguably the best Crysis video I've ever seen.
 

Yup, amazing video. (nana2)

Re: Arguably the best Crysis video I've ever seen.
 

What about http://keepvid.com/ ? Can you enter the url there and download the video to your PC as a .flv file?

Re: Arguably the best Crysis video I've ever seen.
 

Dang! There is no way that can be real... If that is real, the Cryengine 2 is 10 times as efficient as the Source Engine. Doing that with those boxes in real time is just unbelievable. :super:

Re: Arguably the best Crysis video I've ever seen.
 

That is not in realtime :) Still impressive though.

Thats the map and no it's not realtime but when I tried it it was more 1 frame per second instead of the 8 seconds per frame like the guy that made the video. It maxed out my CPU to 100%, nekrosoft13s Quadcore was at 75-85% but still a little too slow. :)

Here is the thread of the guy that made the youtube clip:

WOW! That's incredible! So this sys_physics 0 or 1....what exactly does it do? He says that setting to to 0 will decrease framerate a whole bunch....but with it at 1 the framerate is crap because the CPU is bogged down with physics. Hmm, I guess maybe it give physics a priority or something? That's pretty cool.

Re: Arguably the best Crysis video I've ever seen.
 

sys_physics_cpu 1 - thats the default setting, unsyncs physics from the GPU framerate. It's better to have physical objects to get slowed down instead of graphics and physics during actual gameplay.

sys_physics_cpu 0 - this one syncs physics with the gpu and makes the recording possible

fixed_time_step xx - this cvar changes the general "speed" of the game, you can play it slowmo or much higher speed than normal. It's pretty funny to use this one in SP. :) Slowmo value is something like 0.01 and speed up something like 0.09.

Here in this thread you can read in detail what the guy did:

Oh cool! Thanks! :thumbsup:

Re: Arguably the best Crysis video I've ever seen.
 

Console cvars that he used:

con_restricted 0 (enables advanced cvars)
map xyz (loads the physics map)
sys_physics_CPU 0
fixed_time_step 0.033333
e_particles 0 (all those particles when a box would collide with something killed my GPU)
r_motionblur 4 (need the very high tweak if on DX9)
r_useEdgeAA 2
r_displayinfo 0 (get rid of the white text when in devmode/sandbox)
cl_hud 0
capture_frames 1 (to take a screenshot at every frame so you can add them all together to make a smooth motioned video).
