It does sound like shameless self promotion, but I'm sick of updating like 5-6 places with info at once. Hope you all can understand.

*Make sure you delete the autoexec.cfg when you upgrade to 1.3. Some users report crash on start if it's still there. Still working on that bug.

Requirements:
Crysis 2
.Net 2.0 or higher
Windows XP, Vista, or 7

Basic instructions:

1. Once you have unziped place anywhere you want.
2. Delete any autoexec.cfg files found in the Crysis 2 root folder. (if you're asking what that is, don't worry about it)
3. Delete any target commands you may have put on the shortcut as they will override the autoexec.cfg that is created
4. Run the Crysis2AdvancedGraphicsOptions.exe
5. Hit apply once all settings are set
6. If the autoexec.cfg is not created in the right spot or you don't see improvements. Try running the program in administrator mode. That was clearing it up for some users.

*note* You do not have to start this program every time you want to play Crysis 2.

EDIT: Version 1.6 is out!

Changes (Version 1.6)
*fixed motion blur (again)
*added a 4th level to all basic settings (low = 1, medium = 2, high = 3, extreme = 4)
*added FSAA support to fix stuttering
*added multiGPU
*added sound hit feedback
*fixed some minor buts

Changes (Verison 1.5)
*added HDR brightness level
*added Bloom level
*skipped initial login by default
*possibly fixed the no-motion blur bugs
*creates a separate autoexec.cfg file where you open the .exe file for more easy editing.


Changes (Version 1.4)
*added Shadows option
*added SSAO Option
*added color grading option
*added VSync option
*motion blur should now disable when set to disabled
*fixed some minor bugs

Changes (Version 1.3)
*fixed MSAA - should work now
*fixed crouch toggle - should work better
*added ability to change to preset low, medium, high

Changes (Version 1.2)
*added an option to toggle crouch
*should save a small ini file to eliminate repeated selecting of file locations
*displays root folder of Crysis 2 (so you know if you're on the right spot)

Picture:

I like this official posting better ;p

I will be getting some more options into it ASAP.

Please post any bugs or recommendations you have for the program. I'll continue to update it.

Many thanks for this now go work for Crytek and show em how its done

Is the extreme setting ingame the same as turning everything to highest in this application?

Or does the application improve on the extreme setting?

KUDOS sir, and thankyou for making this available to all of us so soon after the release. Crytek should pay you for this imo , or at least give you a weeks pay relative to thier support dpt payscale. More even, as the days go by with nothing offical from Crytek or EA.

good to see you finally made it over here from gamespot

Is the extreme setting ingame the same as turning everything to highest in this application?

Or does the application improve on the extreme setting?

Nah. You can't actually get above the extreme. This is more for people to have a bit more control over their program.

Already looking forward to next release ^_^

This is great job. Crytek look at this....

i dont sopose its possible to get toggle ads?

i dont sopose its possible to get toggle ads?

Ads? Not sure what you mean. Like in-game advertisemants?

What aspect ratio are you using for 75 fov?

i dont sopose its possible to get toggle ads?

Ads? Not sure what you mean. Like in-game advertisemants?

Aim Down Sights

and its already there. "toggle zoom"

The fact that the community had to make this says everything anyone needs to know about Crysis 2.

Look at this crytek shame on you....

Nice. But how bout a "Force 640x480" option? (not like I need it. it's just a helpful addition.)

i dont sopose its possible to get toggle ads?
You can actually change this in-game too, not only with the tool the OP posted. When you're actually in the game, pause it and go from there (don't remember exactly where to go from there). You should be able to find it with ease, but you need to do it while playing.

anyone got anything to disable glow/bloom yet? it's horrible

its not working for me idk why im using the steam version could some one post the directory please maybe im doing it wrong

anyone confirm turning off motion blur works?

Great apps thanks. Do you know if it's possible to turn off the color change/visuals of objects that you an interact with? Like when a car can be power kicked there will be these ugly lines to indicate that when you stand close. They make me feel like some console kid and I'd like them gone.

Great app... but do you realize that none of the blur or AA settings even work? All those commands have been removed. Also, changing the texture settings makes no difference in the game at all...

Interesting lol. I'm sure Crytek will incorporate something like this in the in-game menus, but a lot of you are impatient. This is cool though, what you have here.

It's gonna take a while for Crytek to start communicating because, FYI to all you PC newbs thinking Crytek svcked up to consoles, they didn't. There's problems on 360, PS3, and PC altogether for Crysis 2. And the 360/PS3 versions need to get fixed ASAP because sony and microsoft will get pissed, specifically microsoft due to partnership.

Yeah, very nice app you have whipped up but most of those apps in the autoexec.cfg DO NOT work -- (Thanks Crytek?) -- WTF

PLEASE have a toggle for bloom/HDR -- It's horrid.

lol that Crysis 2 logo render of mine sure pops up everywhere
