Very good Crysis Warhead Config!

Notice in your own screenshot - The first one, lesser details on the Jeep, also two shrubs are missing in the Ultra config.
However in the second screenshot there is grass in the distance in the Ultra Mod but not in the CCC one, which seems weird, since I don't have that problem. Also the Ultra Mod has brighter lighting compared to the CCC.

The two stubs only show when you disable pom, and the grass isn't there because the view distance is less in the ccc config than in the ultra.
CCC wins in lighting, due to the ridiculous overuse of hdr in the ultra config(should be diled down by a lot!).

So both have their benefits and drawbacks, but the ultra config wins in my book. Now we just have to wait for the official ccc config for warhead.

Hmm could be pom that's making the ground details go away - have to see for myself.

both configs sucks... redponys balanced Xconfig or msters look way better.

But how's the playability? One could of course do an ultimate config that would incorporate the highest settings available, but it would result in the game being totally unplayable.

Yeah whatever you say man, really
Thanks for your informative input to the discussion.

This config kind of cheats to get good FPS. It disables a lot of things like ground clutter, motion blur, and sets depth of field to 1 instead of 2. Curiously they decide not to disable POM, which makes the textures look blurry at a distance. Yet they try to enable anisotropic filtering I believe. Kind of a noobish config. Also has those nasty vertical lines, but I was able to get rid of them by tweaking the config. But still there's many better configs out there. You might be shocked by the high framerate, but you start disabling stuff and duh the framerate is going to be higher.

The level of the HDR is very high in this "ultra " CCC . Is 1

I knooow they are not intended for optimized performance and both CCC the crymod one has better performance. But the modified xconfig just looks hellova lot better, especially soon when red's gonna do some finalizing touches of it.

Now the game is totally playable even using the Ultra config! Got strange problems with the other configs, but none with this one, so try it out and see if you like it as much as I do!

Game looks the same, but the framerate is twice as high!

Does this config give you the extra visuals of DX10 in DX9 with higher frame rates?

Just did some comparison between ccc lv 4 and crymod, my conclusion: ccc has better performance, crymod looks better (better drawdistances, slightly better hdr), here are the screens.

CCC:


Cry:


CCC:


Cry:



here's a pic from lvl 3.5:


you guys have any idea why the sand or wahtever to the right is the worst in lvl 4 (it is completely flat in lvl 4)

the crymod config sucks... it looks worse than my config and runs a tad worse too... if anyone wants to try mine... simply set everything to enthusiast except shadows on gamer... and in the cfg you just add
r_MotionBlur=0
r_DepthOfField=0
r_UseEdgeAA=0
r_SSAO=0

you can remove the motionblur and depthoffield lines if you like those effects on....
