Default best graph settings for Crysis ?

I started playin Crysis yesterday, really nice, i seen that in the graphics settings when i want to use the highest its in grey i cant use it ?
I believe it has 4 levels, low-medium-high-very high ?

I used 1440-900 with all on high, with AA x2, got about 45fps , felt about right
Is the AA really good to use, or is it matter of taste ?
I tried 8xAA but it seriously reduces the fps, and does give a different view, less sharp i thought.

o and what does V-Sync actually do ? worthwhile ?

thx by

has any1 allready shot one of his teammates , on purpose or accidentally, what happens if you do, or cant it be done, i am sort of tempted lol ??

In order to get Very High, you need DirectX 10, unfortunately, XP only supports DirectX 9. AA is a matter of taste.

unless you're on vista the very high wont be clickable. But there is a "xp very high hack" or cheat or something. Supposedly makes it as good as very high. Google it.

Many features of very high settings can be activated in dx9 as well. Pretty much the only thing that cant be done is object motion blur.
You can activate some very high settings with the console.
Type: con_restricted 0
Then you can use
r_sunshafts 1
r_usePOM 1

Thats what I always do.

Run CCC, makes it look tons better and smoother

http://www.incrysis.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=23117

I'm using CCC level 5 on my rig, 1680x1050 no AA with 30ish fps. It also comes with the TOD (time of day) mod which makes the sunrise look realy sweet.
