|
Game opens with black screen, then crashes to desktop
- On some modern systems, the 64-bit version of the game suffers from a bug where it will shortly launch to a black screen and then crashes back to the desktop.[8]
Apply Windows 8 compatibility mode to <path-to-game>/Bin64/Crysis64.exe [9]
|
---|
Use the improved executables |
---|
|
Launch 64-bit executable by default
- The 32-bit version will launch by default on all storefronts.
Steam: select the second launch option[10] |
---|
|
Steam: use the "<path-to-game>\Bin64\Crysis.exe" %command% command line argument[13]
|
---|
Origin: replace folders[14] |
---|
|
- By default, when you try to run a non-English version of the game in Steam, you will not see the main menu UI and only the animating background. This is due to a missing
Default.lng
. This issue was introduced seemingly through the January 3, 2023 update to the Steam version.
Rename language file of desired language to Default.lng [15]

Localizations
- Korean soldiers speak Korean on the hardest difficulty (Delta), whereas they speak the same language as all other characters on all other difficulties. When the console is unrestricted, it is possible to have them speak Korean on lower difficulties by setting

.[27] - To change the language in the GOG version, use the
language_setup.exe
tool located in <path-to-game>.[28] - Language files (.pak) of unrequired languages can be deleted in <path-to-game>\Game\localized to save disk space.

Game uses incorrect refresh rate
- The game may set the monitor's refresh rate to its lowest supported refresh rate when in fullscreen mode, resulting in a lowered frame rate when Vsync is on, and screen tearing or stuttering even if the frame rate is high.
The most reliable and stable solution is to create a custom resolution a bit smaller than your default in your graphics card control panel. This guide contains detailed instructions ("24 Hz lock" section).[30] |
---|
Run the game in DirectX 9[31] |
---|
Run the game in windowed or borderless fullscreen mode, in which case the game will use the desktop refresh rate.[32] |
---|
Use the improved executables.[citation needed] |
---|
Crashes when saving, loading, or starting a level
Lower the graphics settings or resolution.[citation needed] |
---|
Low performance (Linux)
- By default, Proton and Lutris/Wine will use ESync to synchronize game threads. This does not work well with Crysis.
Steam Play/Proton: disable ESync[33] |
---|
Add as a Launch option |
Lutris/Wine: disable ESync[33] |

Console commands
- The console can be opened with the tilde (~) key, but the available commands are limited. This limitation can be bypassed by the
con_restricted = 0
command or by adding-devmode
to the game's shortcut. A thorough list of console commands can be found here. - This won't work on many non-English keyboard layouts.
- Instead of re-entering console commands every time the game starts, a
System.cfg
file can be created in <path-to-game> to apply console commands automatically. The commands need to be formatted differently in the file, using an equal sign instead of a space. For example, to change the FOV to 80,cl_fov = 80
has to be used rather than "cl_fov 80" like in the console.
Improved executables
- c1-launcher project is an open-source replacement of the 32-bit and 64-bit game executables. Fixes several startup issues, including a crash of 32-bit Crysis on AMD CPU systems, while fixing several other bugs and adding several features.
Install c1-launcher executables[35] |

|
Persistent corpses
- By default, dead enemy bodies disappear after a short amount of time.
Increase corpse persistence time[36] |
---|
|
Weapon carry limit
- By default, it is possible to carry two guns in the assault category.
Disable the limitation[37] |
---|
|
Run in DirectX 9
- Running in DirectX 9 resolves issues with letterboxing or windowboxing if game is run in smaller than native resolution.
- Performance may vary. Older cards, especially AMD, run significantly faster but newer cards (both AMD and Nvidia) might run slightly slower in DirectX 9.
Use the -dx9 command line argument[citation needed]

- Applying this compatibility mode on the Crysis64.exe executable is the only thing that fixes this, applying it to the 64-bit Crysis.exe does nothing to fix this issue. Btw, Windows 7 and Vista Service Pack 2 compatibility modes also work, but think it is better to advice the newest one.
