@thetrialshot well i get all the effects that physx gets, like the clothing physics, the dynamic smoke physics, the particle physics etc... i think they made the game so that you can use your processor to do the physx processing or somthing, either way its great for me haha.
@squatchmaster5000 just a minor difference for me, i can see the *minor difference* which i cant explain to you
you can see the difference by using your brain example the guy at 0:08 (PhysX off) prones while on PhysX on hes still standin and firing and the physX on have sharpnels while PhysX off dont have!!
@thetrialshot First of all he isnt in the prone position hes crouching, secondly it has nothing to do with the man crouching. To agree with your statement the guy in the physx ON vid should be crouching since hes being plastered by shrapnel not the other guy in the physx OFF video. Back to the initial statement i made, there is no difference between the physics being run by the processor or using a physx compatible video card. Same effects,(they just made it possible for CPU to calculate physx)
Another difference is the clothing. With Physxs off, it's nearly frozen, while on though it moves way more and has more details (like the splits in the long coats). Never noticed it before I heard about it first. Also, apparently this game Only uses the CPU for Physx, unless you have a multiple video cards.
Wow all this physx stuff is pointless to gameplay, and why can other titles do this without physx and the need for a dedicated graphics card? Its never seemed like it was worth it and I have a sli rig.
@warfreak92 Thats a bunch of crap I used to have Two Gtx460's in SLI and it gave them a hard time now I have a gtx 580 and the only reason why I turn physx on is because I can dedicate a 460 to it.
Totaly same, i cant see difrance, well i only see little rocks, and its rly veird since i oplayed this game and im preety sure i saw those little rocks on the ground.
@XbioshockdeltaX Beleive me there isnt, there is only rock difrence and i played that game (im in chapter 13 now) and im 100% sure that i saw rocks in my game and i seted everything on max and i turned physhs off, its just some nvidia shit.
@chidori1nagashi yeah it doesnt, ok maybe it has better effect or something, i dont know but it improves graphich for like maybe 1% or less, it improves verry little, and i personaly think that its more realistic if you turn off physch for this game
The only difference between high and off is when you got high you see bullets when you shoot. Off you cant see. And its more realistic with the car explosions
the only difference you see is more debris on the floor and that the NON physX gameplay got a rank of C 55.9 fps and the one with physX got an D 28.3 fps
i dont see why would anyone wanna spend money to see stones break down on the floor. games ain't just about graphics... for example, half - life is still one of my best games ever (probably the best), and it's more than 12 years old.
@TheSpanjaMan well the graphics were terrific back then. a better example would be fallout 3. the animations are shitty as all hell but the game itself is still considered one of the best rpg/shooters.
@hazzardwantcookies you're right. I love fallout 3. and I'll surely play few more times because it's really dinamic game. nothing linear about it. mafia 2 will surely be a hit, a great game. but I won't be crying because I won't have physx set on high... :)))
@TheSpanjaMan yea and even though the ps3 version is most inferior ill be getting all my DLC early for FREE! so who cares if the grass textures arent HD! haha
@Vicce82 You can use physx. Your cpu wil calculate it(which seems quite a lot of work), so it might lag if you turn it on. There are some physics tweaks available(search for them on youtube) for more fps.
@hberntsen2 There is no hacks xD You just Put an ATI and a nVidia (at least 8xxx series) gfx card in your PC and download both drivers and then dedicate the nVidia for PhysX in the control panel... Only that and it works well...
ATI cards can handle physics too but that's not supported by Mafia II apparently! Probably Nvidia gave 2Kgames boatloads of money to support *only* PhysX
look at the Detail of the Clothes guys and the effects and how the NPC's move and the Destruction and even the Animation is much better with Physics high,you people doesn't see the difference because you are focused on the ground and not the key points.
they should have used their time for making the game better, get some textures that are 2010 worthy, implement real ingame AA and improve the driving but nooooo they have to use a feature that only half the gamers have and of them only half can use cause even a gtx 480 gets fucked with apex@high.
