    Well the patch 1.5.0 seem to do the job for me (Asus Strix GTX 970) now using the simulated fur and HBAO+ well all the nvidia gamework option . I dont use TXAA because it make things less sharper and every other settings at ultra and now everything run more FarCry 3 like ! The stutters in véhicle are 99% gone now , I'm satisfied of the result of this update so far and now i will start the game for real and immerse myself in this world . Thank you Ubisoft for this update ,now this game run more like it should have been

    EDIT: Godrays are broken for sure.
    Close all background programs? It shouldn't be doing that whatsoever if validating says you have all the files. Try going to MyDocuments\MyGames\FarCry4\c454bd77-ae4e-404f-bdf9-0f302298919b and delete both your gamerprofile.xml and gfxsettings.farcry464.xml. Start up the game and see what happens. If none of that works, try reinstalling. If that doesn't work, there's something wrong with your system.

    Yeah you're right, godrays are reaaaaaally broken now T_T

    TXAA doesn't work anyway and softshadows will cause problems for you eventually, turn it off.

    At this point the stuttering problem is gone.

    Well Done Ubisoft .


    This is way the game should have been released. Not 5 patches later.

    Well, I rebooted. No running programs in background. But i didn´t find gamerprofile.xml and gfxsettings.farcry464.xml. The folder "17ef59fd-6b1f-48ed-82a0-edad73ce091a" was empty... Still the same problem.
    I´ll try reinstalling tomorrow, really not in the mood for that today. If that don´t help, what can be wrong with my system? All other games work without problems...

    slow clap......

    still doesn't run if any of the following are running
    MSI Afterburner
    RivaTuner Statistics server
    Logitech gaming software
    Razer Tartarus drivers installed and its corresponding systray util

    so basically I still need to unload all the standard gaming add ons that work flawlessly with the rest of my 350+ title gaming library.
    And yes I did raise a ticket about this and all the suggestions were to uninstall everything coupled with closure notices telling me the case will close on the day they respond.. assuming that what they tell me is fixing rather than waiting for me "the customer" to respond ... why should I have to uninstall all of this software....!!! All these peripherals are specifically for gaming.

    This really needs to be addressed...

    I assume it's empty because you've never actually been able to open the game? In that case there's definitely something not right there, not sure if there'd be any logs to give a hint as to exactly what. But I can pretty much guarantee that it's not Ubisoft's fault. Game runs flawlessly on my system even with msi afterburner and radeonpro open injecting sweetfx and the steam overlay forced onto the game, all with no issues (95% of the time) so the game isn't as flimsy as everybody seems to think. Most people who can't run this game have probably done something on their system that's preventing the game from running, Ubisoft can't possibly account for every single configuration for every single spec PC. If reinstalling the game doesn't help I'd recommend reinstalling Windows entirely.

    Wrong. I use both just fine, though usually activating RTSS after opening the game is a more effective method.

    Because mouse wheel counts as one "button". Only switching between throwables is made to be used with one "button", cycling through weapons isn't. Don't be surprised that the game wasn't made with PC gamers in mind specifically when it comes to controls, but this is hardly that much of an issue. Plenty of other fps games don't let you cycle weapons.
