Can someone help me? Maldo completly messed up my game and now it loads up in a weird as hell resolution and says "undefined". It wont let me change the resolution and I cant find the CFG file to change the default CFG....
Edit: Just figured out its if I load crysis 2 in DX11 mode under windows 8. Anyone know of a fix? Thanks!

What's the entry-level gpu for someone willing to try this at 1440x900?

Some posters here get 60 fps on a 670. Seems to perform better than Vanilla Crysis
It's strange, the first menu (cryengine eye screen) loads in 14 seconds and every level loads in 8-9 seconds with 1,5 gb vram.

I get 60fps on my i7 920 @ 2.8ghz, 6gb ram and a 660Ti 2gb ram, on vanilla and on MaldoHD @ 1080p and extreme settings (and following recommendations about settings on Maldo's blog), but on MaldoHD I get screen tearing like mad, can't get D3DOveride to trigger it seems, and using in-game V-sync makes fps jump like a jo-jo.
Oh and loading as someone said earlier is very long compared to vanilla, but that's no bother.

It runs better for me. Having all in-game settings maxed out with vanilla Crysis 2 I get a lot of dips to the 50's with a 680. Using the mod I stay at 60fps more often.

Not sure what was causing it, but i changed the slider to ULTRA settings and it runs pretty much locked at 50fps from what i can tell.
So yay!
So yay!

Is it me or it has less motion blur?

looks very nice indeed now and it's funny to be getting 120fps (at times) in a crysis game maxed out. managed to get further into this game than ever before, a whole 2.5hrs in without wanting to uninstall, will try and finish it and post some screens along the way
hope crysis 3 is MUCH better, crysis 2 ranks up there with yoshis story for biggest gaming disappointment ever

Not sure but the torrent was netting me 7.0mb a sec when I DL'd it.

i'll give this a go - it's a slow download, but thanks! the individual files stop working for me around file 5. 5 stops during and the rest don't ever start. . . don't know if it's just me or what
EDIT: yeah 50kb/s, with a 180 minute wait in between files, AND porn pop ups? this must be my lucky day!

Just echoing the fact that it runs faster. I played it with 3D vision on sli 560s and remember the frames dropping noticeably as soon as you exit the building in that first level. It was much smoother with the mod. Looks amazing too. Great job Maldo!

Well I thought it was an AMD problem because I've had the same problem with crysis 1 and 2 on different computers (both AMD gpus) but I found out it is at least somewhat affected by your monitor, too.
On my monitor the game plays at 50hz. On my TV it plays at 60hz.
I read that the game defaults to the first listed mode that it receives from your monitor (or something to that effect).
It's fucking annoying.
I was also getting black bars on my monitor because CCC handles overscan on a per resolution/refresh rate basis. So I had to put my monitor into 50hz in windows and adjust it.
You can create a new custom resolution similar to your monitor resolution. For example, 1920x1081 @ 60z. Select first full screen aspect ratio in gpu mode in your drivers. Then open game in window mode, select your new resolution and then alt+enter for fullscreen mode again.

I will try that.
Do you have any idea why I can't put the AA slider all the way up (fxaa+sweetfx mode) ? The game won't boot if I select that.
I'm lost with amd drivers. You can search support for SweetFX + AMD.
If you have a CrossfireX, you must enable multigpu checkbox in mod config tool.

Yes indeed... I have the issue still today, and I'm outputting Video and Audio through HDMI to my Receiver. I created a custom resolution (1920x1076) and that fixed it.

Damn, wish I had picked this up on the last steam sale now :-( £24 is just too much.
It cost 59PLN so 20$ on Polish Origin, check Yours.

Afaik the problem is with the cryengine itself, so most likely, yes.

Question that's probably been answered already.
When I start up Maldo through the Maldo launcher, there is the normal way to start the game, then there is chapter select. In chapter select, there are regular level names and ones like Blah Blah Maldo 2, etc.
What do?
I barely know if I'm running the right stuff or not.

Yeah, I had that happen with Crysis 2. I was on the phone for over an hour with tech support and they still could not resolve the issue or issue a new key. Had to use a no-cd patch. Pathetic of EA to not be able to help a paying customer and force them to resort to less than legal methods to play their purchased games.
Back on topic, I am having to deal with the 50hz bug unfortunately and am having problems with a custom resolution. I created one of 1919x1080. I tested it out on the desktop and it looked fine. When I select it in Crysis 2 I get the correct 60hz, but the image is very blurry, like my LCD is upscaling a 720p image or something. Any way I can get a close to full 1080p resolution without being blurry in Crysis 2?
