I think your supposed to run it outta the start menu or something...think I saw that somewhere.
Try downloading the latest version.
What version are you playing? The last one I played (6.4) required you to use a custom .exe so it would allow the game to use over 2GBs of RAM or something. You couldn't launch it through Steam.kylef wrote:
I'd say so White-Fusion. By the way, when it says "play / look in third party mods" it is referring to an old thing STEAM did I think. It should just appear in your STEAM list as usual - mine certainly did!
Said before, it was the old link Kyle had. To an out of date one, downloaded latest one now.
Ah - download the latest one Then add the shortcuts via STEAM and away you go!
Ok, installing now. Apparently this whole thing is 20GB in total and each of the 6 seconds can take up to an hour each. Excuse me, but WTF? Crysis is only like 6 or 8 GB not to mention this guy is using a lot of previous textures and w/e it seems from the screen shots. What did he do, freaking make a copy of the internet and include it in this?
EDIT: That said, am I actually supposed to install all 6 of these 5GB sections, or am I missing something.
Wait, Im looking in WinRAR, I have extracted the first section, the "setup.exe" file is 4,171 MB. Now is that the whole thing, or just this first section?

Just got the full version installed. Got everything maxed out, and runs just as well as HL2 did for me.
Got an 8800GTS (320 meg)
Intel E6850
2 gig 6400 RAM
Windows XP (32 bit)
I took a quick screenie, but it doesn't do it justice. It now looks AMAZING. I stood under a lamp hanging from the roof, and it "blinds you" I actually rubbed my eyes after looking away because it felt so real.

Ahh nice, that looks better then most of the screens he posted. Guess I aint wasting my time. Does anyone know if he changed the story and all? Even on the third play through the story is still rather important to me.White-Fusion wrote:

That screenie really doesn't do it justice. This is the best graphics I've ever seen in a game in person. And I played Crysis on one of the best PC's possible when it was in beta = /
Alright thanks for advice. Just throwing it out there, but it might be cause your running 32 bit, or cause this is demanding as hell.
EDIT: Can anyone tell me if I have to go through the installation process 6 times, or am I installing the whole thing in the first install?

Crashed at same point, after you get of the lift and go through the secret door = /
Didnt seem to take long to find a glich... His readme file didnt help me much, bad grammer and way to much caps. Nothing about installation really.White-Fusion wrote:

And I crashed for the third time at same point. GOD DAMNIT. I want to plsay.
Ok thats what I did. Thanks. Also, just an idea, why dont you start up regular HL2, play past that point, then load it with this mod? They use the same save points correct?White-Fusion wrote:

I installed it again but I regret it. Seriously, unless you're some perfectionist who likes to see the individual scales on the antlion grubs, you're not going to care.
Here's a few screenshots anyway:
I can't see a difference from regular Episode 2 in this screenshot:

Yeah Alyx looks different, not for the worse though... Just kind of... distracting if you get what I mean.
I was thinking Jessica Biel tbh.Poseidon wrote:

Turned Models to Medium and it hasn't crashed twice through same load point. So we shall see.
This mod really does look AMAZING.

The amount of work gone in to this is amazing. For example. On the billboard after you get your suit. There's little stick it notes that you have to zoom in to read "Get more watermelon for Lemar"... "Don't use the splitter.. REMEMBER THE CAT!"
Heres a screen of Barney.

Rofl. Breen looks like Sean Connery.
And Alyx is still amazingly hot in this.
