Cheers. I don't want to update to the latest version of the mod, is there a way to disable auto update? I tried blocking in firewall, but then the game wont run.
You don't want to miss some save-games? If yes, here is answer on it: https://farcry1.itch.io/far-cry-advanced-version/devlog/963109/lost-of-save-game...
Hi there. No, problem is that the new update brought a lot of bugs. I have the GOG version and I'm getting a lot of texture corruption. I'm playing the River level. I would prefer the keep the old version until this problems get sorted.
Thanks for the feedback.
Can you describe the problems? Better not to use gog version. Because gog is modified and is not original one. Better to use standalone 1.1 original English version.
I have the same error, I found the Open FC folder, what should I do next?
