you also need to find the Far Cry 1.2 patch. Google it and see if you can find it. If not, either search the forums 'cuz there was a thread not too long ago that had a working link. Or I can host it temporarily for you. PM me if you need my help. GL!

ok got the patch installed for a while already, God dx9.0c, 6188 drivers, nv40 card( 6800gt )

You won't because it only improves performance.

no offence but im getting sick of all the nv40 buyers thinking that theyre going to enjoy cutting edge image quality improvement with SM3.0.......ITS ONLY FOR PERFORMANCE and yet ati still beats out the 6800"s with the "old" SM2.0. im not particularly biased but it is the truth.

Its not native SM3.0 so it doesn't support all the features like displacement mapping or anything. It supports about half 3.0's features effectively making it a 2.0b title. Youll have to wait longer for full 3.0 support.

BTW, i dont think that first screenshot is real... looks like someone copied and pasted from a picture and stuck the far cry guns and GUI in there.
