Negative Mouse Acceleration Fix

Edited by 2 users.

Not sure the best way to work this into the wiki page, thought I would leave it here for ppl though, google has it buried pretty deeply. This will most likely be useful for other Ubisoft games in the future using a similar engine to FC3.

Requires usage of Rick's Far Cry 3 unpacker/packer to edit "farcry3 install\data_win32\common.dat":

http://farcry3-mods.wikia.com/wiki/Tools_for_Unpack_and_Pack_game_content


inputactionmapcommon.xml (found in Common.dat actionmaps\) in the section:

<ActionMap name="common_look"> <MouseFilter input="mouse:move" curve="Weapons:AimCurves/Mouse_Curve" sensitivity="1.0" maxOutput="10" /> <Binding input="mouse:move" action="update" signal="look"/> </ActionMap>

changing maxOutput="10" to maxOutput="999999" (several occurences under mouse, a few under pad) removes the negative acceleration/dampening with quick mouse movements.

I was wondering the same since I too noticed the issue. It's present in both Far Cry 3 as well as Blood Dragon, I would assume it's something to do with the Dunia engine. Either way, fix added.

Multiplayer Freezes at the end

After every multiplayer game my computer freezes until i open up the task manager and end the process. I heard that the problem comes from having 2 or more graphics cards. I have a gtx 690 which is kinda like 2 gtx 680's, so is that the problem ,

Is there a fix for Windows XP users?

Hello,

whenever I start FC3 on Windows XP it gives an error without starting, I've looked online but it seems a lot of WinXP users are having the same problem.

The error code is : 0xc0000142

If you have any idea's on how to solve this error, that would be wonderfull.

Does this fix listed here work? http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php/730828-Far-Cry-3-XP-SP3-doesn-t-work-error-0xc0000142-!?p=8751951&viewfull=1#post8751951

If so please report back, I may be able to add it to the page.

I'm currently downloading the Reloaded Version to try it out. I'll inform you today hopefully if the speed goes up. Currently installing BlackBox Repack to test that out with the fix.
