here's a couple sites that might give you an idea how powerful the console is if you know how to use it. the ones you'll likely use most are the r_ and g_
the first one is one of the best tutorials/explanations of how to customize crysis you'll ever find
http://www.tweakguides.com/Crysis_8.htmlhttp://blog.digitalng.com/?p=4here's a couple for graphics improvements if you're playing on less than very high settings. they each cost about half a fps but give awsome results
con_restricted 1 (this makes the console usable- you MUST have this before you can use any other custom commands)
r_usepom 1 (turns on normal maps/bump maps- only available on vhigh without his command)
r_sunshafts 1 (turns on god rays- only available on vhigh without this command)
also- make a text document called autoexec.cfg and this will auto load all your custom configs every time u boot crysis and put it in your main crysis directory
