I noticed when I start the game post processing goes to custom, if you enable extreme then there's artefacts/flickering.

Just wondering what does it remove, is it anything beneficial for quality?

Hope this is fixed in 1.9

Bump

hmmm set post processing to extreme then manually?

i get pretty crap frame rates with my 6870 crossfire setup, around 30 to 60....or is that normal? haha

What do u get with yours?

In Multiplayer I get about a constant 60 FPS but sometimes it would drop to the 30s or even 20s randomly, again, that's RANDOMLY, regardless of whether I'm looking at a wall or nuke detonation. In singleplayer it's usually stable and around 50-70 FPS, occasionally breaking 100 when I'm in narrow hallways. I have dual HD5850s in CrossFire.

hmm, now that i think of it i havent tried my 2 cards in single player yet, hopefully i get around the same fps as you. I dont know why but but 40-60 fps just seems a bit low for our crossfire setup.

Right let me explain again, before crossfire I usually just use the extreme settings and not custom, however when I first started the game with crossfire enabled the post processing setting changed itself to custom.

Now I tried to put it back to extreme but I get black blobs on screen and other graphical glitches. Everytime I start a new game with multi gpu's the setting resets itself to custom again.

Now I assume crytek set it like this for multi-gpus because something isn't compatible with the full post processing spec, but I'm wondering what they removed to make it work, whether it's an important setting and whether it'll be fixed tomorrow in the update or soon?

As for crossfire performance I get about a 70%+ increase compared to one 5770:

Before @ 1400 x900 extreme:



After @ 1400 x 900 extreme (usually floats around mid eighties):

I leave post processing at custom. My 6990 also flickers when its changed.
