Issues unresolved
"Black Square" bug
- Same issue that occurs in FarCry 2
- When using DX10, using Bloom in combination with HDR (enabled by default in DX10) will cause a black square to fill parts of the screen in many different scenarios, but mainly when looking down. Disabling bloom also disables brightness adaptation, making it hard to see properly in dark areas but the only known workaround is to disable it, or play in DX9 mode.[2]
Issues fixed
Missing sound effects
Set sound quality to 24 bit, 48000 Hz[3] |
