Far Cry 3 not starting on steam or Uplay
I have just purchased and installed Far Cry 3, and when I try to launch it from either app it gives me the "launch" window for about 2 seconds and then the button returns to "play". I have looked into many solutions and cannot get it working.
I have had this game working on my hardware in the past(used a friends CD a while back and it ran perfectly well), but now I can't get the thing to run.
My hardware is:
Windows 10 pro
Ryzen 3 2200G using the vega 8 intergrated graphics
8Gb DDR 2666
Asrock AB350 pro4 MB
I have a video of me trying to run it if anyone wants to see what I'm doing and what Steam is doing.
PLEASE HELP, I love this game and I just feel like I've paid good money for a dud at the moment :-( .
Same issue for me too.
I have a MacBook Pro 15" 2019 with i9 32GB ram and a AMD Radeon Pro video card running Win 10 Pro 1909 64.
Far Cry 3 launches and I get a FC3 banner that is mostly off screen in the lower right corner of my screen. after a few seconds it goes away. no error message nothing.
Windows logs say it can't find certain DLL files... uninstall/reinstall from steam and I get the same issue.
If I change the resolution, I get the FC3 banner centered in the screen but it still crashes.
I have not tried it on my old desktop yet.
I am having the same issue!!??? I bought far cry 3 and 5 with season pass cuz I heard it was amazing. But when launching, it makes my icons huge and launcher is on the bottom right. Then It just stops and everything goes back to normal? I bought two new games to not even being able to play it.... I looked it up and this thread is all I can find
You ******g saint! Over a year later and this worked! Been a week trying to find a solution and this works!Originally Posted by Couleeno Go to original post
So I just got the game for free from a giveaway thing, and when I launch it, it will open then go fullscreen and make the screen black, and then change the screen back to normal and close. I've tried tons of things and nothing works. I can't find a "GamerProfile.xml" file in the game's folders.
