Quick video of Far Cry 2 fixed with Paddy's recommended settings. No action I'm afraid, FRAPS stutter makes playing near-impossible.

Has anyone tried playing online yet? Does Punkbuster kick/ban you?

First: Hello all! (am new)

I've not got it to work yet. I don't have to move the config file that created somewhere do i?

I'm runnning in Dx9 (dx10 isn't working). Also in full screen global hotkeys dosn't work - they work in windowed mode.

Any help would be grand!

Hello ... welcome to the forum ... :D

No you don't have to move the config file ...
You are using vista ... you may have to change the DEP settings on your pc to disable protection on the farcry.exe and the fc2FOV3.exe executables. (using the Racer_S tool)
From another thread ...

racer_s's fix did not work for me until i changed the DEP settings on my pc to disable protection on farcry.exe and the fc2FOV3.exe executables.
Once this was done i was able to modify the horizontal and vertical fov as i wished.

to disable dep for these exe's goto my computer's rpoperties , then advanced system settings, then the advanced tab, then settings on the performance section, then data execution prevention tab, then change the dep options to the bottom one and select the executables using the add dialogue.
Restart your pc and profit.

or ...
You could try this tool ... http://raven.is-a-geek.net/post/FwO_FarCry2_FOV_v2.zip ... by NightRaven which does not require the changes to DEP .

BTW ... from the Profile Page ...

Yours has too many lines ...
Please change it ...

Thank you!

I'm curious about how others feel about the TH2Go experience in FC2.

Recently I played Bioshock, COD4 and Crysis Warhead in TripleHead (COMPLETELY enjoying all three), and am now playing FC2.

I'm using Racer_S's fix with the correct FoV.... but I'm finding that I'm not enjoying the experience. I think it might be a minor form of motion sickness; something I've never experienced in a game before.

Anyone else have thoughts on this?

You might not have the FOV quite right. Or if your getting low frames that could be it. Or maybe its the effect that happens when you sprint too long?

I had the same feeling ... try these settings ...

X FOV: 4.8
Y FOV: 1.0

I think they improved things for me.

4.8...1.0
48:10
3x16:10

4.8? Wow, mines only at 2.94. Is the difference really that much between regular triplehead and triplewide?
