Awesome. Thank you! SLI 580's stock speed.

Ooops, just found a bug by looking at your screenshots... AA 16xQ is not supposed to be available :p:

I'm going to fix that soon :up:

Anything superior to AAX4 doesn't work japamd but that's normal I suppose, no ?

[japamd]

Exactly, the engine supports only Edge AA and Post AA as 2x and 4x.

[SKYMTL]

And now we wait for Crysis 2 "in game" benchmark results to magically start appearing in reviews. ;)

maybe if you got it on steam perhaps it's got something to do with that?

I think you right here because it did work back when I used a disk install of the Crysis then I switched to STEAM and it has not worked since..

:down:Crysis 2 is garbage, who would want to benchmark it?

[defect9]

my computer sucks far too much to pull off a viable benchmark, but it should be interesting to see how an 8800GT fares


:down:Crysis 2 is garbage, who would want to benchmark it?

probably the people who like it lol

Who knows I'll probaby have fun looking at and comparing benchmark numbers than playing the game itself... won't hurt to try :D

Very very impressive , you can have slow quad core and get good FPS and or you can have fast dual core to reach the same , other games don't scale so well :up:

thats the funny thing he died before 2000 frames i know maybe in 1:1M but it happened in battery park timedemo.. so i have to change to allien vessel..

crytek mmmm, seeing fps of 150-200, was expecting so see some 80 fps similar to the crysis benchies :D

Crysis 2 SGSSAA HowTo - You Tube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbjr72VYepo&hd=1)

Huge impact on performance :eek:

[kaktus1907]

here it's not only me some guy from ocn had same issue

http://www.overclock.net/13150148-post15.html

[japamd]

I've added 3 custom timedemos recorded at Central Park, Downtown and Times Square. The default timedemos (from Crytek) have been removed.


Updates
======

0.15 - 15/04/2011
- New installer.
- New timedemos.
- Removed unavailable AA modes (8xQ, etc.)
- The program now checks for newer version when it's started.

0.14 - 14/04/2011
- Savegames created during the benchmark are removed after the test finishes.

0.13 - 14/04/2011
- Autoexec.cfg is kept even it didn't existed before. The program now deletes the file to avoid the game enter benchmark mode the next time it's opened.

0.12 - 13/04/2011
- AA modes changed to reflect changes from Crysis/Crysis Warhead.

0.11 - 13/04/2011
- Program title changed.
- Fixed game config path.

0.10 - 13/04/2011
- First release.

thanks for this :up:

[orangekiwii]

This program doesn't seem to work at all for me. I have the steam version of the game and have looked all over the internet for people with similar issues with your program. I have found no one. The problem is the program launches the game and then simply has it sit on menu, every time. It doesn't matter if I have an autoexec or not, it doesn't matter what settings I use, nothing changes the sitting on menu behavior. Any help would be appreciated.

[japamd]

I'm aware of that steam issue, but unfortunately I can't test it myself to know what's happening. My version is EADM with latest patch, it looks like Steam version is a bit different and may not be executing the autoexec commands.

If possible, after Crysis 2 launch by the bench tool and while sitting on menu, please open the console and take a screenshot, that will show the commands executed by Cryengine.

[Ket]

Not to bash japamd as he does awesome stuff, but why would anyone want to benchmark with Crysis 2? Its wholly inferior to Crysis or Warhead in every way, shape, and form. I want my DX11 patch dammit and it better turn Crysis 2 into the wonderful eyecandy open world we expected.

[Utnorris]

It's a shame you have to have the game in order to run the benchmark. I would rather see a benchmark that is a standalone program like Vantage.

[Andrew LB]

I'm getting far worse FPS than any of you guys. Are you guys running default autoexec.cfg file? Mine is heavily modified to really increase image quality. Example: Extreme settings for Shadow resolution is 1024. I've got it at 1536.

Can any of you guys run the benchmark with this as your autoexec.cfg?

thanks!

Something like AvP benchmark would be nice. But why are we not able to expand the Results box to show each run yet? It's still cut off via scroll bar :(. It's been like this since the Crysis benchmark.

http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/6328/sshot35tnnb.jpg

1.0.1.6 - 07/02/2011
- Added support for game patch 1.9.
- Introduced support for DX11 and Ultra quality mode.
- New interface.
- Improved timedemos.
- Added support for submitting results to Adrenaline BenchZone.
- Improved Steam support (special thanks to Guilherme Sollero aka SHAFT for his help)

Thanks, I tried it and one of the benchmarks never completed, it just crashed on me. Right now NVIDIA's cards do not play well with Crysis 2 DX11 at the moment.

Thanks :)

Did it crashed just after finishing loading the map?

[Chrono Detector]

It crashed at the end of the map. Though I disabled SLI and downclocked my card it seemed to work without any issues.

I also tried it on my other AMD/ATI 955/6950 rig and it failed to load, just crashed for some odd reason.

[Philip_J_Fry]

i thought i was the only one with this problem. my 570 can run BFBC 2 @ 840 no problem for hours, crashes on Crysis 2 after the DX11/tex update, sometimes just minutes after i start the game. at stock it seem fine. i am guessing a new driver might solve this problem.

btw what is the VRAM usage for GTX 580 3GB users? i heard its around 1800+MB @ 1080p max. i am getting 1250MB according to after burner, and around 800 to 1000MB on task manager

[RaZz!]

yep, since the updates crysis 2 eats up all the ram on my gtx570 as well (resolution is 1680x1050 with ultra settings + dx11). the ram is finally put to some use ;) even bc2 uses only up to 900mb at most.

Hmmm, I see, maybe your overclock wasn't rock solid... for Crysis :P

I've updated the installer to 1.0.1.7, it fixes an issue some users reported with the openautomate dll not loading due to some dependencies on external modules. Please try it and let me know if the problem persists.

[japamd]

New build 1.0.1.8 is online, there's a slight change at the way the benchmark is done internally, for all who found problems with previous builds, please download new build 1.0.1.8 and let me know if you can run the benchmarks now.

http://benchzone.adrenaline.com.br/tecnologia/downloads/229/adrenaline-crysis-2-benchmark-tool.html

[Sesto Sento]

I'll have to test it once i arrive @ home from the work.
But it will be something like avg 75fps.

v1.9 + dx11 patch + high res textures, really pushes my machine :|
with only one 6870 i get average 35~40 fps, and once i enable the crossfire it gives me avg 70~75 fps ingame :| and this @ 1440x900 res (everything max settings, and ati catalyst drivers all enabled for max quality)... i imagine @ 2560x1600... not even 580's SLI should play it above 60 fps...

[Andrew LB]

Sounds like stability issues. I just ran it and didn't have any issues. Now if I go and overclock past 900mhz... then it crashes.

Odd that the card will pass synthetic torture tests without a problem but turn on Crysis and... Crash!

With stock video card clocks, 1920x1200, Ultra, 4xAA, Times Square, DX11, EdgeAA, and High-Res... I average 40fps with a minimum of 27.

I do have a bunch of settings being forced via nVidia Inspector. Not sure if they're actually overriding things. 8xCSAA, 2xMultisampling, 16xAF, High Quality Ambient Occlusion, etc.

i cant start that benchmark ???? it crash when loading

[japamd]

Not specific to you, but I heard of a cracked exe that causes the benchmark to load and crash right before starting the timedemo. If it's not your case, please post game.log file contents you can find in crysis 2 installation directory so I can try to figure out why and when it's crashing.

Can you post the results?

In 1.0.1.8 and previous builds the benchmark could, in some cases, run with lower settings than the specified on benchmark tool.

Hi, I have tested the new 1.0.1.9 beta and seems to work alright for me except for massive flickering when I run SLI, single card is okey, run 275.33 driver.

Can you look into that please

Hey Ghostleader, I don't have SLI here but I'll ask some friends about the flickering. Previous builds were ok for you?

[Ghostleader]

Hey Ghostleader, I don't have SLI here but I'll ask some friends about the flickering. Previous builds were ok for you?

Sounds great.

It has been like that since the 0.15, I have no problem with flickering when I play the game.


I also have a rig with a Crossfire setup (2 x 5870), no problem with flickering in either the benchmark tool or when I play the game, using CCC 11.6.


Btw: nice of you get the tool to work again :up:

Max fps = 21 with all settings maxed 1920x1200 and dual 6990 cfx and it runs in slow motion, disable cfx and just use one 6990 same story, so something isn't right with latest build. Previous build ran normally yet still only got 62fps max. something wierd here.

Btw: nice of you get the tool to work again :up:

By reading this, I guess the internal build I've sent you is working, is it?

Confirmed, build 1.0.1.9 reinforces quality settings by setting individual spec cvars (sys_spec_shadows, sys_spec_objectdetail, sys_spec_postprocessing etc.) because using only sys_spec wasn't working, but it seems that changing sys_spec_postprocessing kills multi-GPU. I'm still working on it but at least I know what's happening now.

What I mean was that 0.15 didn´t work that well with the latest DX9 patches, so it was nice to see the new 1.0.1.9 beta it´s working alright with the new DX11 except for the SLI flickering.

So no, I haven´t tested what you send me yet, I´m at work for the moment, in a couple of hours I can test it, I get back to you as soon as I have tested it.

Oh, I see. Please try the new build, we tested it with an HD 6990, HD 6950 crossfire and a GTX 590. Multi-GPU works fine, no flickering was observed.

@japamd

Have just tried it, work just fine :up:, awesome work :clap:


Thanks for the PM, much appreciated :yepp:

[japamd]

Nice, thanks for the feedback, Ghostleader :)

If possible, please share your results so we can see how good an HD 5870 crossfire scales compared to a GTX 580 SLI.

only complaint is that the benchmark takes long to load and doesnt adjust properly to higher dpi

otherwise worx :up:

You´re welcome


See what I can do about some results give me an hour or two.


Don´t know about the 5870, they seems to struggle and I think it´s because they only have 1Gb vram, the GTX 580 have 1,5Gb and they are max out during game play and bench.

My 5870 Crossfire rig crashes when the game load a level with only 4Gb of ram, I have to put in a extra 4Gb of ram (total 8Gb) and then it uses ~60% of it (4,8Gb) :eek:

[japamd]

@NapalmV5: wow, that's funny :P It wasn't supposed to scale at all, I had disabled auto scaling but it seems something went wrong. I'll have a look onto that, thanks for the heads up!

@Ghostleader: so Crysis 2 is finally.... Crysis :D

But it's weird, 4 GB are supposed to be enough, unless you're running a 32-bit OS.

why disable auto scaling ?

i had to adjust all the tabs ^

Almost or should we say close enough :D

It´s wierd because I don´t get that kind of problem with my GTX 460 in SLI, they have also only 1Gb of vram :shrug:

I do run a 64-bit OS.
