Wow, Lots to cover. Here's what I did for Cry.

Started out with a basic terrain build.

 

Added textures and color to the terrain.

 

 Refined the textures. And roads.

 

Added loose foliage.

 

Added the cabin and bit more foliage.

 

 Added the rocks in the background.

 Added a door that swings open and shut.

Added fog. Looks really cool at night.

 

 Added Boids of fish and Birds.

 

Another image of the murky water.

 

 There are birds here. Kinda hard to get a pick of them.

Image o f the particle emitters.

 

Another image of leaves and rain.

 

Layout of the emitters.

 

 Sound shape walls. To areas, one for the general area, and at the house it lets the player hear it creaking.

 

 

Blood Decal on the floor.

 

So there you have it! Cry engine in a nutshell! Will post video soon!
