 Thursday 08.26.2004  New Featured Mod!
Far Cry has been hailed as the easiest FPS game to create mods for, with its intuitive map editor and script-based programming interface. Here you'll find frequently updated information on Far Cry mod activity, including in-depth features on the most promising of these efforts. If you're working on a Far Cry mod that's not listed here, be sure to let us know and you'll be added to the list.

For our fourth feature, Ubisoft Community Manager djnogg interviews the modders who are working on Jedi: Timeline, which is a Star Wars mod for both Far Cry and a Half-Life 2.

 Thursday 08.05.2004  Far Cry at CPL in Texas

Ubisoft Community Manager "djnogg" recently traveled to exotic Grapevine, Texas to attend one of the premier competitive gaming events, the Cyberathlete Extreme World Championships. Big thanks to Nvidia for hosting us and letting us run a 32 team Far Cry tournament on their PCs! The winning team each received copies of Far Cry, and the overall winner picked up an Nvidia 6800 GT card.

The winning team was Visions of Warfare, pictured below in a lovely shade of pink that's really flattering to them all. The video card went to Tony "Beef" Schmelzer. Check out the pictures below.



By the way, notice in the team picture how Mark "Scrappa" Ramey is clutching his case of highly caffeinated drinks like it's going out of style. Nice work gentlemen.

 Friday 07.23.2004  Far Cry 1.2 patch withdrawn

Ubisoft has taken the decision to withdraw this patch due to issues experienced by a number of users. An official statement follows:

"Far Cry patch 1.2 has shown unexpected behaviour on specific hardware configurations. These matters are mainly due to incompatibilities with several optimisations brought lately to the code, with the intent to please a large number of users.

We’re currently asking CRYTEK to work on delivering a new patch as soon as possible. Until then we have decided to remove the patch 1.2 from the official UbiSoft websites."
