Far Cry 64bit- Great!

No FarCry thread here- odd?

Well this is a classic and great- one of the best of all times. I am amazed how well it looks and runs on my new rig using the 64bit patch and added content. High frame rates- it runs like a top and looks great with my w7 64bit intel system. The 64bit patch was said for amd but works fine with intel 64bit cpu's systems. Looks great! :D :9:

** The videos and screens do the game no justis- much better in game. Man my fps are high even recording @30fps. Fraps off my fps are like 60 to 110. YouTube has updated and changed codecs a few times- my older vids look like crap mostly- Vids and screens are re sized to 854x480 which is youtubes defaults for my 16.9 res. I use avc [free any video converter] xvid for vids and irafan jpeg for screens-->

I am playing at 1920x1080 extra high game settings water is ultra high I added reflections to the water-so. 8aa 12xaf can go more high with af but looks nice now. Grass is the most hard thing in the game to record so it is not blurr- I think I got it pretty good now using Paradise render 3d. I might try the hdr- I do not care to manually tweak it tho. It comes native now I think in the 1.4 patch and has a hacked 64bit content and textures in that patch or said.

Far Cry has a not bad mp game not sure 64bit players have servers tho- most others are patches to say 1.4? FarCry 64bit so far is sweet. Far Cry runs a lot better than it ever did in xp- my system is more powerful - same older vid card but fc rocks on this system and w7. I hope it runs as well all game and no probs- we will see. I might up af some more [maybe 16af] and tweak some other stuff. I use devmode for 3rd view. I like fc more than fc2- fc2 is still cool tho..

* My older Far Cry video play through on youtube->

Yep I played the 64 bit version, remember? :?:

There's even a way to quick save, I can't remember where I found the mod, but it's out there.

Farcry still looks awesome!! :mrgreen:

Ya I remember now blue.

I think I did quick saves before- I think patch 1.4 adds it. I have a mod for it have not tried yet but is said you can edit the dev lua add 2 lines and can quick save. I do not think I did it right and or fraps was blocking something- fc has a lot of keys and alternates. I am not sure I did it right but spawned back in one time all the bots spawn with me with me in the middle and they shooting at me. So thats not good. I can and have played the game with the check points if need be..

It runs and looks great or so far it might bug later I do not know- I hope not and my frames got a lil low at the carrier- not bad tho. I have not got inside the carrier yet . Dam bots clean my clock or I do not like the video and start over. Or take a nap etc.

Think I will fire it up here in a few tho..

Yeah,

I though the Original Farcry was Freaking hard!! The quick save issue your having, sounds about right.

As I recall, it was kinda buggy, but I made it through the whole game once using it. :mrgreen:

All these years have come and gone and FARCRY still looks 2X as good as mst PC games, truly

one of the BEST PC GAMES EVER!! :9: :D
