Contrary to our previous CryEngine 3 weekly galleries, today we decided to include one of the most promising and unique Crysis 2 mods. Modder ‘wenda’ has created an amazing rocky scene and you can view a fly-through video of it below. Alongside wenda’s mod, we bring you new screenshots from the on-going work of modders theonebutcher, buGOODu, chicken, darkchazz, and rGOt. Enjoy!

CryEngine 3 never ceases to amaze us. Crytek has just released the latest 3.3.9 version of their SDK and as you’d expect, some modders decided to experiment with it. Be advised though: lights are not rendered into the cubemaps with this new version of CryEngine 3’s SDK and both supersampling & customres are not working. Hopefully Crytek will release a hotfix in the coming days. But anyway, today we bring you new shots from modders iSqueezee, Lex4art, Nevil112, ReVan1199, blackhorizon, rGOt, Cleric, Lavizh, USSR_GRAND, Cry-Puppy, and frmdbl. Enjoy!

Now this is why we love modders. Modder ‘theonebutcher’ has been working for a little while on a corridor space map that looks very similar to the ones found in Doom 3. This map comes with custom assets and the level of detail is simply astonishing. This map could very well be a glimpse of how Doom 3 (or even the upcoming new Doom game) would look like in CryEngine 3. CryEngine 3 is an amazing engine with so much potential and we really hope that more developers will license and put it into good use. Enjoy!

This week, Crysis 2 modders have been experimenting with various TOD’s and as we can see below, they came up with some interesting shots. One of them looks simply amazing and that’s from modder chicken. Crysis has never looked as good as this and proves the difference that a polished TOD can make. But that is not all, as modders bac9-flcl and themodman101 have released some shots from their latest maps. We also bring you some screenshots from Cry-Puppy, VinoBob, rGOt, and iSqueezee. Enjoy!

Each and every week, we are bringing you shots from mods that are under development for Crysis 2. And even though Crysis 2 did not show off CryEngine 3’s capabilities, these upcoming mods prove that Crytek’s engine is ideal for a variety of games. Seriously now, more developers should license this engine and we were delighted to find out, earlier this week, that Warhorse Studios’ upcoming game would be powered by it. But let’s get back on topic, shall we? Today we bring you some new images from the mods/maps of Synce, iSqueezee, Mocib, the_grim, ReVan1199 and modsuki. Enjoy!

Modder ‘maikel’ has released a new CryEngine 3 video that shows off what ‘natural lighting’ would look like in a video-game. The modder has been looking at how light works in the real world and how this can be translated in a game engine and his research is designed to answer: a) How does direct light, indirect light and atmospheric effects work in the real world and b) How can this be translated into a game engine. The end result is great and you can view its video, as well as some screenshots, bellow. Enjoy! Continue reading New CryEngine 3 video shows off ‘Natural Lighting’ in video games→
Mapper ‘Cleric’ has released some new screenshots from his Quake map that is under development for Crysis 2. This is basically a re-imagining of Quake’s first level and uses some of the assets found in iD Software’s classic shooter, like the ammo crates and the button switches. This is an excellent work and Cleric deserves the spotlight as the map will be finished soon. Enjoy the screenshots after the jump! Continue reading New screenshots from Crysis 2’s Quake map→
Okay, now that was unexpected. Mapper Chrome235 has revealed a screenshot that showcases how Mordor and LOTR would look like in CryEngine 3. This is basically an artwork – or a wallpaper – that borrows some assets from the movies. In other words, this is not a custom map. Still, it’s pretty amazing and makes us wish for a LOTR game, powered by Crytek’s engine. Alongside this shot, we bring you some new images from modders/mappers Tiesto, TheMagnumman357, chicken, rGOt, and ReVan1199. Enjoy! Continue reading Weekly CryEngine 3 Gallery [January 22nd – 28th]; LOTR’s Mordor comes to CryEngine 3→
Ever wondered how strategy games would look like in CryEngine 3? Well, time to find out as Crysis 2’s modder, sceab15c, has released a video, in which he shows off a top down strategy concept within the Crysis 2 SDK. This is great and shows that CryEngine 3 can do literally everything. Awesome stuff and we can’t wait to see a more polished version of this mod. Enjoy!
