SSAO Max Setting? : Crysis

» Thu Dec 31, 2009 2:12 am

Hi, i've now got this set at 3, is it possible to set it to 4, is there a difference?

4 is fine, just checked, 5 crashed the game.

Those modes actually control the type of SSAO the game uses. Set it to 1 to use the type of SSAO that was used in Crysis 1. Set it to 3 for the new volumetric technique. You can also set it to 2 or 4, but these settings tend to produce artifacts.

You'll also want to disable the r_ssaodownscale setting because it makes things look pretty gross.
