Anyone else having problems with X800 pro & FarCry?

krag · 05-19-04, 12:47 AM

I can't hardly play FarCry with my new X800 Pro. I keep getting these types of scenes in gameplay (see below)....water everywhere and missing objects and enemies that keep shooting evethough I can't see them. I am running the Cat 4.5s and I tried the 4.4's but it was still the same problem. I tried to install the 4.2 cats that someone recommended but they wouldn't install...even after I ran Driver cleaner 3.0. what do you guys think?

have you tried installing a fresh install of XP then getting fresh drivers....after you install the patches and such so you dont get viruses and worms

bobmanfoo · 05-19-04, 01:23 AM

Nope, no fresh install and no viruses or worms I have Mcaffe anti-virus that is updated everytime a update is released.

Krag, it's odd that you have that problem and I haven't. I'm running my X800 Pro on a P4C800-E w/ a 3.0 @ 3.5 as well. I'm running the Cat 4.5s and the No-CD patch for Far Cry 1.1. Could it possibly be some other software you have installed causing the conflict?

Hmmmmm, we have almost identicle setups...except my noCD & farcry are version 1, not 1.1v. I am not sure yet, bobmanfoo said he is having the same probs too. I just downloaded the Omega 4.5s, I'll give them a spin.

Het bobmanfoo, what version of FarCry do you have? Version 1 or 1.1 with the patch? Maybe thats it?

I'd be ver surprised if upgrading to 1.1 didn't solve all your Far Cry problems. Let me know if you need the No-CD.......

Hey Krag ,

I'll throw my .02 in here .

Iam using the Cat 4.4's on my main rig w/9800P and on other rig the Cat 4.5's and a 9800P . Both rigs have FarCry ver 1.1 installed set at differant resolutions ( 1024X768 and 1200X1600 ) ; neither PC has experianced the problems you are encountering . If fact BOTH rigs run xint with the newer cat drivers and FC ver 1.1 .
Kinda seems then , that your game problem would definitly point to your new X800 Pro or your game version .

Try updating the game and see what happens .

i never updated the game, because i don't have the no-cd for 1.1, is there one? need to start buying games again

i never had these problems with the forceware 5.xx and 60.xx drivers....lemme go search for 1.1 no-cd

bobmanfoo · 05-19-04, 01:47 PM

Just updated to 1.1 patch and everything works now! 1.0 and 1.1 uses the same no-cd exe. ubisoft/crytek is getting lazy eh?

Sophisticated · 05-19-04, 01:52 PM

krag · 05-19-04, 03:21 PM

Sheeeesshhhh...

I feel pretty dumb...updated with the 1.1v patch and all is well.
