- Performance varies; older cards, especially AMD, run significantly faster but newer cards (both AMD and Nvidia) run slightly slower in DirectX 9.

Issues fixed
- TweakGuides has created a comprehensive guide for fixing issues in this game. It can be found here.
- 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
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Crysis
and add the exception this will fix the problem without having to disable your anti-virus.

Console commands
The console can be opened with ~, 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.
Instead of re-entering console commands every time the game starts, the file <path-to-game>\system.cfg
can be created 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 you would use cl_fov=80
rather than "cl_fov 80" like in the console.
