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.
Run the game in DirectX 9[25] |
---|

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.
Persistent corpses
- By default, dead enemy bodies disappear after a short amount of time.
Increase corpse persistence time[31] |

Weapon carry limit
- By default, it is possible to carry two guns in the assault category.
Disable the limitation[32] |

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] |

Mods
Enhanced Edition
- This mod aims to improve the game’s visuals while maintaining the style of the original.

- When starting the game, it asks for an activation key that is already pre-entered by the game (one that is used by Steam. ) When trying to activate it (pressing ‘Done) it keeps asking the user to re-enter the key whatever you do. Even adding «-» between every 4 characters doesn’t fix this. This results in the game refusing to start.

Issues fixed[edit]
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%DocumentsMy GamesCrysis and add the exception this will fix the problem without having to disable your anti-virus.
Hangs on startup[edit]
Run the 64-bit version of the game[citation needed]
If you still can’t get the game working, run it in Vista SP2 compatibility mode.
Game crashes on machines with AMD CPUs[edit]
Replace CrySystem.dll with fixed one (32-bit)[10]
- Download a fixed CrySystem.dll and extract it.
- Move it to <path-to-game>Bin32 and override existing one.
Alternatively — Run the 64-bit version of the game[11]
- If 64bit version also crashes, try downloading following fix and extracting it.
- Move extracted CrySystem.dll to <path-to-game>Bin64 and override existing one.
Crash on Fullscreen Toggle[edit]
Run in DirectX 9[citation needed]
If you get an error saying ‘This program has stopped responding’ after changing between fullscreen and windowed, force DX9 mode to solve the issue.
Crash when using MSI Afterburner’s On Screen Display[edit]
Config file edit[12]
- Open the MSI On-Screen Display Server program (RivaTuner Statistics Server).
- Click the plus sign (or newly ‘add’ button) and navigate to where you installed Crysis and add Crysis.exe
- Once you have that added go to C:Program Files (x86)RivaTuner Statistics ServerProfiles
- Edit Crysis.exe.cfg
- Change EnableDynamicOffsetDetection=0 to EnableDynamicOffsetDetection=1
- Change HookDirectDraw=0 to HookDirectDraw=1
Error 5024[edit]
Exit Process Explorer
Game will not launch at all and ends up with security error 5024. You are probably running Process Explorer so turn it off and game will launch OK.
No objective after destroying tanks in Recovery[edit]
Restart mission or run to end[citation needed]
In the mission ‘Recovery’, there’s a rather common bug where you’ll get no objectives after destroying the two tanks and Psycho and the hostage just hang out in the school building. If that happens, you can restart the mission. If that doesn’t fix it or if you rather don’t, you can manually proceed to the end of the area and finish the level, it isn’t too long anymore and you should not miss out on vital bits.
To do so, run to the south east of the village. There should be a waterfall. Use the strength augumentation to scale it and follow the river on top (also seen on the map) to the very end. It will be a rather long walk and you’ll come across other waterfalls that you have to jump up, also there will be several big groups of enemies on the way, so be careful. Just always follow the river and you will finally come to yet another waterfall, which has a large cave to the right of it (you can’t miss it). Going into that cave triggers the end of the level and you’ll proceed to the next mission where everything will work as usual.
The way to walk is illustrated here, courtesy of Affenzahn375 from here.
Run the game at screen refresh rate[edit]
Crysis may set your monitor’s refresh rate to its lowest supported refresh rate, resulting in a lowered FPS when Vsync is on, and heavy screen stuttering even if FPS is high.
Run in DirectX 9[13]
Create an arbitrary custom resolution in Nvidia Control Panel (i. e. 1921 x 1080) and set the game at that resolution.
Run the game in borderless fullscreen mode, in which case the game will use your desktop refresh rate.
Game is shifted to the right on the screen/runs in 59Hz mode/wrong refresh rate[edit]
Change refresh rate — automate with QRes[citation needed]
You can change your refresh rate manually each time you open and close the game.
OR
You can automate this with QRes:
- Download QRes from Softpedia or Software.Informer
- Extract QRes.exe into the Crysis Bin64 or Bin32 folder depending on whether you’re using the 64-bit or 32-bit executable
- Open Notepad
- Copy and paste:
- Go to File and then Save As…
- Name it Crysis.bat, and then change Save as type from .txt to All Files
- Save into the same Bin64 or Bin32 folder
- Right-click Crysis.bat and click Create shortcut
- Move this shortcut to wherever is easiest, say the desktop, replacing the original shortcut
- Right-click the shortcut, click Properties, click Change icon, click Browse, navigate to the same Bin64 or Bin32 folder, select Crysis. exe, and click OK twice
- When you run this using the new shortcut, your screen will flash off and on again, shifted to one side. Press the Auto button or equivalent on your monitor to realign the screen before the game starts
- When you exit the game, wait a few seconds, the screen will flash again, the command window will close, and you can press the Auto again

Console commands[edit]
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.
Crysis Patch 1.2 Windows 10
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.
Weapon carry limit[edit]
By default you can carry two guns in the assault category.
Disable the limitation[15]
- Start the game in developer mode by adding -devmodecommand line argument.
- Enable all console commands by adding con_restricted 0 command to System.cfg file in the installation folder (create if the file doesn’t exist).
- Add line i_noweaponlimit=1.
Disappearing bodies[edit]
By default dead enemies disappear after a short delay.
Increase the delay[16]
- Enable all console commands by adding con_restricted 0 command to System. cfg file in the installation folder (create if the file doesn’t exist).
- Set higher g_ragdollmintime= value, such as g_ragdollmintime=10000.
Run in DirectX 9[edit]
Running in DirectX 9 resolves issues with letterboxing or windowboxing if game is run in smaller than native resolution. Performance varies; older cards, especially AMD, run significantly faster but newer cards (both AMD and Nvidia) run slightly slower in DirectX 9.

Solved: CRYSIS 1 won’t run on windows 7 64 bit
July 2016
— last change
July 2016
Well, I solved the problem with CRYSIS WARS, now the turn has come CRYSIS 1 (2007) order 1. 2 (the game version became 6115) and the last patch 1.2.1 (the game version became 6156) and Most importantly, the bin64 folder appeared where the CRYSIS.exe executable was inside to run under 64-bit OS. Those. in the folder with the game in the idea there should be two folders: bin64 (to run on 64 bit OS) and bin32 (to run on 32 bit OS)
So I bought CRYSIS 1 in origin, downloaded it and there is only a bin32 folder, respectively, with a 32-bit executable to run on a 32-bit OS, and there is NO bin64 folder! If you run the game from this bin32 folder from the executable that is there, then a black screen appears and then the game crashes «CRYSIS program has stopped working» (SEE SCREEN1)
I tried to install patches in anticipation that the bin64 folder would appear (I did this in CRYSIS WARS and when there was a disk with CRYSIS 1) in order, first 1.1, then 1.2 and 1.2.1 (patches downloaded from the official website of the developer: http://www. crytek.com/games/crysis/overview/download But they are put for some reason, here is what it gives out during the installation process: «the service pack cannot be installed because the program being updated is missing, or the service pack is intended for a different version of this program» (SM SCREEN2) Moreover, I tried to install the patches in order and in discord, in general, in different ways, there is no effect. The most interesting thing is that I already played CRYSIS 1 on this computer when I had a game disc, but just a month ago it got corrupted and installation from it is no longer possible.
HERE THE QUESTION: how to run CRYSIS 1 under 64 bit windows 7? I don’t understand EA’s negligent attitude towards its customers, don’t you have programmers who will add the bin64 folder to the download in the origin and make sure that the game downloads the latest version, this is just a boorish attitude towards the players, any normal programmer will do this in a couple of days, but no, EA stubbornly continues to sell games that require dancing with a tambourine, but just make sure that the bin64 folder is also downloaded when the game is downloaded . ..
P.S.
Tried to install both in C:\Program Files (x86) and on drive D — no effect
Also encountered this problem: 8 people.

Since they couldn’t help me anywhere (for example, in the American live chat, they answered all my questions that the game is old and its support has been discontinued, and if it doesn’t start on my PC, then nothing can be done about it, in short, they kicked it off)
But I did find a solution on the Internet.
1) Ideally, the game should run in 32-bit version from the bin32 executable , but it turns out that not all processors support this feature. The game was originally sharpened for intel (which can be seen from the splash screen at startup — core 2 duo)
And in general, it works with intel processors, but people who have AMD FX series (FX 4100, FX 4300, FX 6300 and td) have problems running from the bin32 folder. nine0003
2) The game bought on the DVD box during installation had a bin64 folder in the game files, in the origin the game is downloaded without this folder, why EA decided this way, I don’t know.
3) Who has an AMD FX 6300 processor or another similar processor like mine, you need to download the bin64 folder with game files and put it in the game folder along the origin \ Crysis path and, accordingly, launch the game from the executable from this folder.
Not all the bin64 folders I found on the Internet that I tried to download and throw into the game folder brought an effect, but this one definitely worked: I uploaded it to Google Drive
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2i3pZ7j0NfFdFJoNFhmSFNwa0k/view?usp=sharing
And by the way, the version of the game is already downloading patched with the latest patch 1.2.1 (this is version 6156 , so I could not install patches)
P.S.
You can view the version of the game in the game menu at startup in the lower right corner of the screen (see screenshot 1)0003
If someone needs patches, they can be downloaded from the developer’s website http://www. crytek.com/games/crysis/overview/download
(initially comes CRYSIS version 5767 , all three patch in order and it turns out CRYSIS version 6156 , if by some chance you have CRYSIS version 6115 — this is the version with patch 1.2, then just install CRYSIS patch 1.2.1 before the final version 6156)
ALSO IN WINDOWS 7 TO LAUNCH CRYSIS 1 DO NOT FORGET TO SET COMPATIBILITY WITH VISTA SP2 (RIGHT CLICK ON THE LABEL — PROPERTIES — COMPATIBILITY) — THIS STEP IS REQUIRED OR THE GAME WILL NOT WORK! nine0006
And by the way, even after the closure of GAMESPY, the ONLINE CRYSIS 1 multiplayer continues to live, for this you just need to download a patch weighing 5 megabytes and register in the game http://crymp.net/ (download the patch from this site, fans have created their own emulator with many features, for example, autoloading maps like in CRYSIS WARS, etc.)
On 07/05/2016 there are 26/30 servers in the game that work every day
Only the version of your game should be 6156
Maybe it helped someone)

@gumper1111
I don’t remember where the game settings files are, but if you run the game through Origin, then do this.
In Origin, right-click on the game / Game properties / advanced launch settings and in the console write -window
after start the game
December 2016
Will origin not swear for changing the game process in this way?

I did everything as the respected runnerw28 wrote! I placed the bin64 folder in the game folder, launched crysis64. exe, the effect is zero! I have an AMD7700, Crysis version 1.1.1.6115, none of the patches from the CryTek website are installed. Maybe there are some other options?? Thank you!

Try to run from the same folder not Crysis64.exe , but Crysis.exe . It was with him that the game worked for me. nine0003

Spoiler (Highlight for reading)
I put the bin64 folder in the game folder, ran crysis64.exe, no effect! I have AMD7700, version Crysis 1.1.1.6115
I placed the bin64 folder in the game folder, launched crysis64.exe, the effect is zero! I have an AMD7700, Crysis version 1.1.1.6115
I could be wrong, but as far as I know, each version of the game needs its own .exe file, you have the game version 6115, and folder bin64 with game files (including with . exe files, I uploaded from version 6156 (this is the latest version with patch 1.2.1), i.e. you have a version mismatch, you need to install patch 1.2.1 and then just throw folder bin64
