FAR CRY LOOKS TERRIBLE!!!

[hans030390]

Now, this isn't me saying i think it looks bad...because i know it doesnt...BUT...
I got the demo for the game, put everything on very high (just for the prettyness) and look what i get

Now, the textures and other stuff besides those errors above look fine, and the framerate is good too...but what is causing these errors? terrible water, that purple blue green blocky stuff, and the seaweed wont render correctly...

The demo recommended all LOW settings...and this is what very high gives me...ugh

Setup below, please help!

This is a well-known problem. The demo does not work right with GeForce 6-series cards, since it came out before the GF6 series cards were released. You need to get the full version of Full Cry (Patch 1.1 and up) to see it in full glory on the GeForce 6 series.

k yeah i just read up on that...phew....i feel better now...i thought it might be my drivers or card...and way to fix it in the demo? (commands, file changes, i dunno, i know you cant patch demos but maybe something could do it?)

thanks for the quick reply

Since when did games need to detect video cards to work. I hate this retarded feature. It's been pissing me off. "We don't support geforce 6", even though we released the same year the graphics card was released. Sorry, Pandora Tomorrow rant.

.....mmmm yeah.....i agree?

patch the game to 1.3 to make it work right for geforce-6 series

It must be a GeForce 6 6XXX thang. I ran the demo on my old Radeon 9700 Pro and it looked awesome even though it ran quite slow.🙂
