Crysis: Unbelievable Custom Map

GX writes "Crysis was thankfully blessed with an editor that allowed gamers to create their own mods, assets, and levels. I remember visiting a Crysis modification site, and taking a look at a modification that would drop a nuke and deplete everything in it's path for a good few miles. Today I came across another modification. This time it's a custom level built for Crysis, and boy am I beyond belief. If you think you've put hard work into a modification then maybe you should take a look at the following pictures. This medieval level is known as Niveus, and the artist who created this stunning level is Andrew "androkles" Hasko. The level is currently reported to run at 5fps on his machine. I'm right now speechless after taking a look at the pictures. Take a look at them after the jump. Video included!"

Its not ready for prime time yet it runs at 5 FPS. I can't find any download either. Amazing though.

He should get a mod team together and make a total conversion where you play as some van helsing type bad as$.

I came.

Sorry, but this is f'cking amazing. This looks better than several big budget games today. Some new models, a tweak here, a tweak there, throw in some voice acting, add some lore and you could have the an incredible (looking at least) fantasy game right there.
Here is hoping that a lot of developers use that engine or a modded version of it for their next games.
It's unbelievable how talented some people are...

Very, Very impressive. That would be just a massive map to play in, whoever this guy is he needs to be hired STAT! Make me some killer games Androkles!

I wish i could afford a computer that could run crysis...

Here's to hoping that there will be user created content allowed on the PS3 version of the game next year

Seriously the engine need to get licensed asap ... in the hand of better fps devs (no offense but while grandiose on the technical side , their gameplay and the interest of their game isnt really great) or even mmo and rpgs , it would look marvelous

Not as impressive as remaking the whole game Oblivion with the same tools, but still...by himself??? That's crazy!

Good job, dude. Valve might snatch you up or something.

Eww, Valve? Why waste such talent on a development team that uses an ancient engine for all their games?

Not trying to be totally negative here....but whats the point if it only runs at 5fps. It looks awesome yes but i mean this is like seeing the most beautifull car in the world and being like omg thats so cool i bet its super fast...and then the guy says well it only has 1 gear and it goes somewhere around 5 Mph cause we didnt do anything but focus on the looks.

i mean if it runs at 5fps just cause he has a crappy setup then i retract my statement but somehow i doubt thats the case.

"The level is currently reported to run at 5fps on his machine."

5fps on HIS machine. His computer specs aren't listed. For all we know, it could run fine on a high-end computer.

His specs are listed, its 5fps on an 8500gt. I'm sure it would run over 30fps on a 4870x2.

11 - Crytek have made an amazing LOOKING engine
But it's horribly unoptimized, which is why many high-end machines struggle to run the game, especially if an AA is activated. I'm glad someone has decided to make a mod this in-depth, however, as I feel the original was lacking in story and even gameplay.

This guy did some amazing work!

edit: it reminds me of something that came out of Oblivion or some other fantasy game. Sad there's no AA turne on, because you can tell this would benefit from the removal of jaggies.

You can never tell. There are a bunch of console fanboys who will disagree with anything threat this superior to their crappy Halo 3 and KZ 2.

Perhaps they're disagreeing, not with your comment, but silently telling you that Warhead's development led to a better optimised engine.
