I have 5850's and updated yesterday evening. It stopped the crazy light show. HOWEVER, tonight I am going to see if it looks better with one card going (turn CF off) because earlier in the week I was using the bioshock fix and with CF on the light show stopped, but when I went with one card the game just looked a lot better.

I've gotten it to work. You have to put r_multiGPU = 1 in an autoexe.cfg as well as the system.cfg. See if it works for you.

Oh come on, you write it, but don't get it!? This CAP version is for the STEAM version of the game! You wrote you have the retail version... And wondering why it isn't working!? Wait, until the retail version CAP is out!

PS.: There's already a thread about the new CAP... Use the goddamn search engine!

Except for the fact that crossfire profiles work by the exe's name. Thus they're both "Crysis2.exe" As a longtime user of crossfire, I can honestly say there's never been a difference between the steam version and the retail version.

Also, read my above post where I said I got it to work, so clearly it DOES work.

IT ISNT 1.
The number dosent represt 1 and 0 like binary. 2 is actually used in this case for 2 GPUs.
If you have 3 then you put 3.

@CatalystCreator wrote via twitter, that the Steam and the Retail versions of Crysis 2 behave different, thus different profiles are needed.

And yeah, Catalyst A.I. recognizes .exe names. Or the Game name reported from the .exe. That's why we have the problem, as the existing Crysis 2 profile was meant for an earlier game version. CryTek changed something and this messed all up.

I use CrossFire for quite some years, so I quite know what I'm talking about.

No excuse for you, not using the search engine! Everything has been said in the other threads!

I'm reading through these forums for about an week now. I'm tired of the same threads over and over again. Nobody seems to use that damn search engine... If CryTek should do anything, then hide that "New Thread" button... It's a pain.

Meh, it works for me but the performance is worse than using the F.E.A.R. crossfire profile. Pretty lame, hope this gets patched.

ok falcon , i understand your pow , but if you're so tired to read topics or questions like mine , don't post any answer to people like me, who makes you so "stressed" !

you can see that your first answer didn't help me for a penny , so let the ignorants like me deep in their ignorance , and stay on top of the world ;-)
