here you find some tricks to tune the performance in mafia ii

http://mafia-daily.net/m2physx-optimierung/

it's german, sorry for that ... but it works great. did the "remove all apex clothing except from vito" and my framerate is near 60 with max. details, 8x af and aa off.

very playable ... me likes!

folder size:
7,38 GB (7.933.452.319 Bytes)

i used phoenix 1.3 ( 1.4 beta is avaible for download! ) to unpack ... works like a charme.

another question: how can i change the language? crerate a language.txt and enter my fav. language won't work ( like kane and lynch 2 ). any suggestions?


The same physX tweaking process but in english:)

Here's how I did it:

- Got the CloneDVD

- Got the Phoenix unpacker

- Updated it (you must do this AFAIK) - go to Instruments > Update ContentDescriptionRecords > Internet

- Select SID Unpacker under Instruments

- Then Scan a SIM-file, select Mafia II disk1.sim

- Unpack the ncf-files + the one with your preferred language

- Replace the MafiaII.exe with the one from the v2-crack, and the cracked steam_api.dll

Then I did the Cloth-fix for PhysX (removes dynamic clothing for everyone but Vitos clothes). Now it's butter smooth at 1920x1080 with all on/high. I'm pleased Smile

Just finished the stamps part, still runs great here! This will be a long long night Smile

Also, I noticed better fps than in the demo. Is this just me or..? I haven't even deleted this clothes folder but it runs real smooth.

How the hell do you know that we will have a release tomorrow? Probably the release teams don't give a shit. Also they will steal the working crack and rename it to themselves...

In your Mafia 2 folder - Edit - APEX - CLOTH

then delete every file except those that starts with "VITO", m2skeleton.ms and ClothRemapTable.

Dont forget to make backup.

Stupid question. Because it's official premiere tomorrow and complete EXEcutables for full version will be released. And cracking steam protection is easy.

These cracks you see are modded execs from demo.



Okay. I can wait until tomorrow, I just want to check out the final version already.

Anyone got issues with the crack ? My controls are inverted(up goes back and vice-versa) and after every cut-scene my health goes lower and lower.

Oh, crackfix just showed up.

patience schmatience,

if it works fully with the v2 crack i'd rather play it now then tommorow night/thursday night or however long it takes to be cracked.

so while your downloading the proper, i will have already finished it with a workaround. no skin off my shit.
