Setting tweaks to view cloaked players in MP?

Post » Sun May 08, 2011 8:49 am

I went on a buddy's computer the other day and found that his computer runs the game smoother than mine does and his ability to pick up the cloaked players was unreal! I could see them from a good distance away without trying to find them.

So I was wondering if there is any setting tweaks I could specifically do to increase my quality of graphics.

He runs only a dual core 2.41 ghz processor with 2g ram and a 4800 ati radeon (which only has 256 mb memory)

I currently run 2.83 quad core with 4g ram and a ati radeon 3870 x2 1g video card. I should expect that mine should have much more power than his...but maybe his runs better because of the higher up graphics card or could monitors change the quality?

Really need help so I can up my game just that much better :D

wow...why does it instantly have to relate to a cheat? I have other friends who have the ability to see cloak because they are used to it from crysis...it only would have to deal with settings i would assume so some positive advice would be nice please.

also people need to learn when someone is actually hacking and isn't...people troll when someone does well and doesn't really examine the cheat being used. You should know when someone is cheating by their rediculous gameplay when you face them one on one. too many people have mistaken skill/ lag spikes (grr lag spikes) with hacking.

Dont worry, unintent. The Crysis community has already proven itself to be mostly composed of idiots.

Who cares anyway? He's looking for a way to see cloacked players, regardless of how he achieves it, the end result is the same as a cheat.

OP: get skill and learn to use nanovision.

Sounds like an object-draw-distance thing.
One object is to far away to be rendered or being taken into the equation, and optimized away, while drawing players are prioritized. Seen it on BC2 as well, when you see an enemy, scope him, and whola, he's behind a crate that magically appeared.

Lol, yeah, some people with high res can see them from a good distance. They're not invisible. I play at medium with low res, so I have to look hard for their shadows.

The trick is, if you cloak, cover you shadow with the shadow from some other object.

I run crysis 2 maxed out and I can sort off see cloaked ppl.
You really have to pay attention to it but you can see them.
However the way you describe it...

I'm sorry man, I'm going to have to agree with cheats here

I have the same experience, but in my own game (Killcam)
I cant for the love of god, see cloked People, even when theyr 5 meters infront of me, theres absolutly no outline!!
But when i see people killing me on killcam, they see me clear as day whit a destinct outline around me, no ****, so i wonder, how i dont see any outlines on cloaked people,??? I just dont get it??? but actually i begin to think its a bug, only some of us are experiencing,...

Okay, I obviously could care less about hacks. I wanted better graphic settings or information on what could be the difference in settings or computer specs that would allow different visual. I use nano vision. Duh, how else could I see cloaked half the time. And trust me brotha, I have enough skill to go around. Add: Ittisme. I'll show you sometime so you can sit down and relax.

yeah very funny that it cloakes your weapon with you. if you use a mounted weapon and enable cloak, that big mountet gun goes also cloak.

as it is mounted, why not cloak the whole wall it is mounted to? with this logic, i would be also able to cloak everything i take my hands on, even other players :P imagine: you got a friiend having max armor and you touch him *gay* from the back to cloak you both :)

lol... what would be the point of cloaking when everybody can see your weapon flying around? Oo

it shure is not realistic, but without it, you can throw away the whole cloaking system...

And what settings could you possibly be referring to? Do you see a 'see cloaked enemies' option listed in the settings? if you don't, it involves editing some CVAR files or something. That's called cheating.

The object-draw-distance is another thing, on LightHouse I can see ppl clearly on the other side of the map but when I use scope I see a box in my way. Thats the draw distance thing but the nano vision thing happenes after ppl cross the half mark of the map (when they arent just shadows but get the body colour thingy)

Wow more stupid people.

What he's refering too is changing the graphical settings within the limits of the game so cloaked enemies stand out more, something that's been done for year and years in PC games.

And to think most of these people consider themselves **** PC gamers....
