Solution #3: Navigate to game folder and launch game directly via game executable (Right click game in library->Properties->Local Files tab->Browse Local Files->Bin32->Crysis.exe) Solution #2: Right click game in steam library->Properties->Set launch options->type: -dx9->Click ok See instructions to generate programs list to txt file: (Only if you wish) list of all programs installed Detailed System Specs (especially OS service pack, cpu, and graphics card & driver combo)ģ. The idea here is that everyone with this problem try every possible solution on this list and report backĢ.
Below I've listed the various solutions I've compiled from both here and other forums across the web that have purportedly worked for some. I've therefore decided to start this thread to see if we can pinpoint the various causes for this problem. I think this implies that the causes of this problem can be different and some may even suffer from a combination of them. The biggest issue is that while it seems the symptoms are similar (black screen at launch then crash to desktop) the fixes that have worked for some people varies greatly. Alright, it seems this Crysis crash problem has been going on for quite some time.
