Far Cry 2 - Patched


This mod fixes lots of bugs and developer oversights, as well as adding a couple of small features to improve gameplay.


There are seperate downloads for the Steam, GOG, Ubisoft Connect and Epic Games Store versions.
The download comes with all the fixes below and also a 4GB patched .exe file for improved game stability and load times.


You can also choose between the following options:

1) Save Anywhere and Limited Saving, if you want to have the PC or console experience.

2) Flashing Items or No Flashing Items, if you want some extra immersion.



You should always play using DirectX 9. This fixes lots of issues by itself.



Full list of changes

Graphics

  • Capped the framerate to 60 - Fixes bouncing npcs and various other bugs.
  • Removed the weird line close to the player where high quality shadows become low quality.
  • Removed rim lighting that made the player blue at night.
  • Slightly improved draw distance and LOD when using 'Geometry - Ultra High' and 'Terrain - Ultra High'.
  • My personal 'Colourful Far Cry 2' reshade configuration. This is Far Cry 2 with vibrant colours, very simple with no extra post-processing. You can easily customise the saturation of the colour with included instructions.


Weapons

  • Renamed the 'Eagle .50' to the 'Desert Eagle' and the 'Homeland 37' to the 'Ithaca 37'. Removed unnecessary hyphens from others.
  • 'Creeping' has been added to the machete so you can walk at half speed by holding the iron sight button. This facilitates stealth when using mouse and keyboard.
  • DLC weapons have been added to the ammo upgrades.
  • DLC weapons' reliability have been tweaked to match the upgraded vanilla weapons.
  • Explosive crossbow bolts now fire in an arc.
  • The sawed-off shotgun now uses shotgun ammo.
  • The sawed-off shotgun now fires 14 pellets in one shot, as it fires two shells at once.
  • Fixed the MAC-10 being silent.


Vehicles

  • Windshield bullet holes are now permanent.
  • DLC vehicles now come in a variety of colours.
  • Fixed the missing Big Truck engine sound.
  • Fixed the hang glider being pushed into doing loops when shot.
  • Fixed the hang glider bouncing on water.
  • Fixed the being able to see the edges of the player's arms when using hang gliders.
  • Improved a slight misalignment of the vehicle GPS.


Gameplay

  • Less annoying outposts and improved world persistence - With his permission I have included Scubrah's amazing newscript. This means that areas the player has visited are maintained in memory, up to a reasonable distance. This comes with a modest performance impact.
  • Improved stealth - reduced enemy perception pre-combat by 20%.
  • Fixed assassination targets having the same vision as snipers.
  • Reduced the chance for enemies to chase the player when driving through outposts from 100% to 50%.
  • Reduced fall damage.
  • Reduced monocular sensitivity.
  • Explosive barrels now start fires.
  • Specops enemies now have a truly unique appearance suitable to their role.
  • Removed a sniper that often gets stuck inside a rock in map 2, at the ammunition outpost between the Crash Site and Sepoko.


General

  • Restored the infamous difficulty critical healing animations.
  • Removed the flashing save reminder from safehouse map icons.
  • Removed mouse speed clamping.
  • Fixed the Jackal tape bug where the 10th tape repeats and you can't hear the remaining ones.
  • Improved the formatting of the character select screen (English only).


DLC - Available without authentication with Ubisoft

  • Predecessor tapes.
  • Homemade and primitive machetes.

Encountered a bug, my second buddy can't be made "rescue ready" again. He is simply not appearing in any safehouse or Mike's bar no matter how much I sleep. Some guy on FC2 discord said it is the issue of the script in this mod

Any way to fix that? File editing?

Is this compatible with FoxAhead's Multifixer?

Edit: It is. According to PCGamingWiki, Multifixer does not touch the .exe or .dll files, so it is used in conjuction with other mods.

Greetings Sir, I am having a bit of problem here. I am removing the brown filter by setting post=0 in engine, settings, defaultrenderconfig.xml under <Post> tag BUT it also removes Godrays and other sky effects which I don't want. I only want to remove brown filter only. I am still new to Modding, Please help. I am using "Far Cry 2 Patched" with added Infinite Toggle Sprint and No Malaria

I played this game till the Mike's bar mission, where you need to buy a gun in computer and get the weapon. I already did the buying part but when I go inside the bar there is only the writing black guy with tape nearby and I also cannot interact with him. I watched playthrough in youtube and there's like 3 people in the bar when first entering it.. I'm using hakim as avatar by the way, i can't see my buddy there too who I rescued in previous mission. i really enjoyed this mod so far too bad i'm stuck in this :(

The Steam version should be fine for retail!

I really liked your mod and I think it's the best option to fix the vanilla game (other mods change the game a lot and I don't like it), but I would like to ask you to make a variation of the mod without automatic reloading of weapons and without a player icon on the map, for the option without flashing objects. It seems to me that this is the maximum of necessary changes. If you do not have the desire or time for this work, could you write a detailed guide on how to do it yourself, taking into account that I am absolutely not competent in this.
