Update: If you've installed the official 1.4 Patch some of these commands may only work in Devmode.Ĭl_weapon_fx - 0=Low, 1=Medium, 2=High. You can now edit Systemcfgoverride.cfg and insert new commands, such as Console commands or one of the many other commands and variables contained in the consolecommandsandvars.txt file (See Console Commands section for details) and they will be executed each time Far Cry runs without being overwritten.īelow are the major commands which can be edited in System.cfg, and what each will do: However, you can make Far Cry run additional commands by creating a new blank text file and renaming it to Systemcfgoverride.cfg, and placing it in your \Ubisoft\Crytek\Far Cry directory. Just like the Game.cfg file, putting additional lines in the System.cfg file will not work. If you wish to change those settings, I strongly recommend you use the above methods to do so, and only edit System.cfg to change settings which cannot be accessed in any other way. While there are many commands you can change in the System.cfg file, this section only covers the major commands and what they do, and also will not cover again the settings and commands already explained in detail in the In-Game Settings and Far Cry Configuration Tool sections above. It includes the types of settings found in the Far Cry Configuration Tool, the major in-game settings, as well a bunch of other video and audio settings. The System.cfg file contains all your major game settings (aside from key bindings). If you want to use additional keybindings you'll have to use Devmode for now (See a section below).
I am currently unaware of how to make additional key bindings "stick" in Far Cry, but I will update the guide when I know how. You can also edit them here if you wish, however while you can edit the existing settings in the file, if you add any additional lines to the file they will be deleted the next time the game starts.
You should change all your major control bindings in the Control Options screen under the main Options (See In-Game Settings section). The Game.cfg file contains all your control key bindings and some important mouse settings.
Try to stick with one profile if you can.īelow are descriptions of the Game.cfg and System.cfg files, and the mysterious a file which together control most of the game's settings. Keep this in mind, so that when you switch profiles you don't wonder why you've lost some of your tweaks. cfg files to the global System.cfg and Game.cfg files, making the game execute them the next time the game starts up. Whenever you switch profiles, Far Cry then transfers the settings from the relevant profile's. cfg settings while using a particular profile will be transferred to the profile-specific. However, the personal settings for your Profile are also stored in the \Ubisoft\Crytek\Far Cry\Profiles\Player directory under the filenames _system.cfg and _game.cfg. These files are read, and written to, by Far Cry each time the game launches and also when any of the game's settings are changed in-game, or by the Far Cry Configuration Tool, and sometimes when certain settings are changed in the Console.
make a hashtag hell go to ubisoft toronto and protest ANYTHING please just dont let this go quietly because if we do then they might never bring it back and then what happens when eventually the arcade service is shut down.Far Cry Tweak Guide Advanced Tweaking (Pt.3)Īll of the game's major settings are held in the System.cfg and Game.cfg files in your \Ubisoft\Crytek\Far Cry directory. Sorry this is very ramble-ee but i need to get my frustrations out. LETS GET NOTICED even the people who dont really mind i ask you hold of on buying the game to hurt their revenue as that is one of the only ways to make them see we arent happy. all of us who loved the editor lets make an uproar. So i come to you reddit seeking validation. It has legitimately ruined the hype for me they have deliberately slashed the lifetime of their game AND the content yet they are selling it for the same price or even more thanks to inflation which is just FUCKING insane! 3 ONLY had pvp which was bad 4 ONLY had pve which was bad 5 had both which was great but then they never updated it. Secondly I saw an argument that people didn't like the map editor since 2 or whatever and my retort is: the reason isn't the editor itself it was how they handled it. NOW the dare to say that "we want to focus on the campaign" like bro literally just port far cry 5 editor and give it a new paint you don't even have to make maps we will do that. it was the BIGGEST reason far cry 5 lived so long so even after they fucked it up by givingĢ game modes and then never adding to it but it still went strong due to the sheer creativity. The map editor has been a staple of the far cry franchise since 2 and the fact they are removing it from 6 is an insult.
