'''''Crysis''''' is a game developed by [[Wikipedia:Crytek|Crytek]], published by Electronic Arts for Microsoft Windows, and released in November 2007. It is the first game of a trilogy. A standalone expansion pack entitled [[Crysis Warhead]] was released on September 12, 2008, and follows the events of Crysis but from a different narrative perspective. [[Crysis]], [[Crysis Warhead]] and a multiplayer expansion called [[Crysis Wars]] were re-released as a compilation pack titled Crysis Maximum Edition on May 5, 2009. At the time [[Crysis]] was released, and years thereafter, it has been praised for its milestones in graphical design (commensurate with high hardware requirements). The sequel [[Crysis 2]] was released in March of 2011, and Crysis 3 is currently in development.

== Graphical Tweaks ==
 
 
 
{{ii}} It is highly recommended to read [http://www.tweakguides.com/Crysis_1.html Crysis Tweak Guide] at TweakGuides.com, where you can find in-depth guide to console commands, optimization and more.
 
 
 
=== Field Of View (FOV) ===
 
 
 
{{Fixbox|1=
 
{{Fixbox/fix|Field Of View (FOV)}}
 
1) Open console with tilde key <code>~</code>.
 
 
 
2) Enter <code>con_restricted=0</code> to enable all console commands.
 
 
 
3) Enter <code>cl_fov XX</code> where XX is you desired field of view.
 
 
 
Note: Crysis is using vertical field of view with 60 as default. Use [http://www.rjdown.co.uk/projects/bfbc2/fovcalculator.php FoV Calculator] to calculate your desired horizontal field of view.
 
}}
 
 
 
=== Anisotropic Filtering ===
 
 
 
{{Fixbox|1=
 
{{Fixbox/fix|Anisotropic Filtering}}
 
1) Open console with tilde key <code>~</code>.
 
 
 
2) Enter <code>con_restricted=0</code> to enable all console commands.
 
 
 
3) Enter <code>r_TexMaxAnisotropy XX</code> where XX is you desired AF from range 1 to 16.

=== Mouse Acceleration ===
 
 
 
{{Fixbox|1=
 
{{Fixbox/fix|Mouse Acceleration}}
 
1) Open console with tilde key <code>~</code>.
 
 
 
2) Enter <code>con_restricted=0</code> to enable all console commands.
 
 
 
3) Enter <code>i_mouse_accel X</code> where X is 1 or 0. Default 0 disables acceleration.
 
 
 
}}
 
 
 
=== Run game in DirectX 9 ===
 
 
 
Running game in DirectX 9 can improve frame rate and can resolve issue with [[Wikipedia:Letterboxing_(filming)#Pillarboxing_and_windowboxing|letterboxing or windowboxing]] if game is run in smaller than native resolution.
 
 
 
{{Fixbox|1=
 
{{Fixbox/fix|Steam version}}
 
1) Right click on game in Library
 
 
 
2) Select Properties
 
 
 
3) Click <code>Set Launch Options</code> and add <code>-dx9</code>
 
}}
 
 
 
{{Fixbox|1=
 
{{Fixbox/fix|Retail version}}
 
1) Create shortcut to Crysis.exe
 
 
 
2) Right click it and select Properties
 
 
 
3) Find Target box and add <code>-dx9</code> at the end so it look similiar to this this: <pre>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Crysis\Bin32\Crysis.exe" -dx9</pre>
 
}}
 
 
 
== Issues ==
 
 
 
{{ii}} If you are experiencing crashes while changing graphical or controller options, try disabling your Anti-Virus software, if you have AVG or Norton 360, this is most likely the cause of the crashing. In AVG you can add an exception by going to Advanced Options > Add Exception then navigate to Documents/My Games/Crysis and add the exception this will fix the problem without having to disable your anti-virus.
 
 
 
=== Crash on Fullscreen Toggle ===
 
 
 
If you get an error saying 'This program has stopped responding' after changing between fullscreen and windowed, force DX9 mode to solve the issue.
 
 
 
=== Error 5024 ===
 
 
 
Game will not launch at all and ends up with security error 5024. You are probably running <code>Process Explorer</code> so turn it off and game will launch OK.
 
 
 
== Improvements ==
 
 
 
=== Console ===
 
 
 
Console can be opened with tilde key <code>~</code>, but available commands are very limited. This limitation can be bypassed by <code>con_restricted=0</code> command. A thorough list of console commands can be found [http://www.wegame.com/games/crysis/crysis-console-commands/ here.]
 
 
 
Some of the more useful ones include: <br />
 
*''r_displayinfo 1'' to display FPS
 
 
 
=== Skip Company Logos ===
