Installation
  1. Install the game
  2. Download the required pack: 32-bit version | 64-bit version
  3. Unpack the downloaded archive with file replacement to directory:
    Disk:\Steam directory\steamapps\common\FarCry (or to another directory where the game is located)
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
  • If the game does not start, freezes, or there are performance problems, then you need to delete the "system.cfg" file in the game folder.

  • After the death of the main character, you need to load the game from the main menu in order to avoid problems with the game interface and enemies respawn.

  • If the 32-bit version of Widescreen Fix does not work, then you need to: right-click on the "Bin32\FarCry.exe" file → select the "Properties" item → set the compatibility mode with Windows XP in the "Compatibility" tab → click the OK button.

  • To run the 64-bit game version via Steam, you need to: select a game in the Steam Library → right-click → select "Properties" → in the appeared window type the launch option: -64bit
Quick Save & Load
The quick save and load functions are bined to the F5 and F9 keys, which can be rebined to your own by changing the key names in the "playercfg.lua" file in the 64-bit game version. To activate the quick save & load functions in the 32-bit game version, you need to open the file "game.cfg" using a text editor, add the following lines and save the changes:
Input:BindCommandToKey("\\save_game","F5",1); Input:BindCommandToKey("\\load_game","F9",1);
Then right-click on the file "game.cfg" → select “Properties” → set the attribute “Read-only” → click OK button.

@Rain Man try make fresh instal of the game and delete all config files. Instal all patches, If you dont have downloaded with game, and than do as exactly as tut. says

For whatever reason I keep getting an "application load error" with a string of numbers and letters when I try and launch this, with or without the patch, is there any fix for this?

Yes it is tue. As I recall sneaking was way much easier than after the patch. What's more I made a test, compare with and without patch. I could easly crawl underneath enemies, while they will spot me on sight even trough trees after patch. Conclusion. It is more fun to play without patch, but it looks bad and does not support modern PC/resolutions etc. If you want to look good but in cost of sneak gameplay this tut. is just perfect.

Comment in the tent bug fix thread says:

"It fixes AI seeing through tents, but it doesn't fix AI seeing through WOODEN HOUSES on the islands. They see through several wooden walls and one-shot."

Tent AI Bug Fix is a standalone community patch and fully compatible with 1.33 patch. Version 1.33 is an upgrade to the 64-bit game version, the 32-bit game version is numbered 1.4.

hello. don't know if anyone will know but i wanted to ask, is there a difference between ai fix in theese patches here and 1.33 downgrade patch? here i saw that it only fixes them shooting through tents and objects. https://gtm.you1.cn/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1948012547 in this guide link i saw that it should improve the ai like it used to be before. i asked sme same question there but sadly they didnt know. also is 1.33 downgrade patch compatible with all of theese patches right here?
