Nice mod, I liked a lot the idea of fixing whole game, game working so smooth. Thanks! But I have some questions. How to make weapon a bit far from player view? I have big monitor and it seems weapon is a bit close to player. It is ok, but I would like to change it a bit. Otherall, amazing work!
Thanks, yeah, we will think about this, I guess would be good to add feature to customize weapon distance from fov(camera fov). Like it was done long time ago in FCR: https://youtu.be/XfbDg21tPjU
Ok. I wasn't sure how far the mod extends to changing things. Like I can throw the rock next to enemies and they cannot see me, however the moment I throw the rock (even before it hits anything) "THERE HE IS!" Makes the rock useless. I tested this in the Bunker level where you got the 4 Trijon in cages with like 5 enemies behind one way glass. The dude on the phone suggest opening the cages. Sounds fun right? Problem is it is literally impossible to reach that button without being spotted. I tried throwing a rock to distract them so I could sneak while they stared at the opposite wall, but they always instantly detected me when I did. Hilariously I can headshot a few of them through the glass and they remain clueless for a few seconds. All probably issues with vanilla, I just wanted to rant xD.
Is there a way to play this through Steam? I would love to record play time and share screenshots. Best I could do is have Steam run the FCAV launcher but when you press play it stops going through Steam.
Where that .bat does work to bypass the launcher when launched outside of Steam, but using that command Windows gives me a strange error saying it can't find farcry.exe in the openFC folder even though it's right there.
I guess I will have to suffice with tricking Steam into running the game when I launch your mod manually, so I at least get the playtime.
You can try to add manually farcry.exe from OpenFC in steam as separated game. Also, about screenshots, they saves into: "YourFarCryFolder/FCAV_Files/Screenshots", but yeah, that will not shown in steam. Okay, if still nothing will help, we will investigate this thing and will try to make special guide a bit later.
Appreciate the response. Problem with a separate Steam game is that it's not running under the actual Far Cry game, so game time isn't counted and screenshots aren't saved to that community hub. Basically we need the Steam overlay to work running this mod while Steam thinks we are playing the og Far Cry.

I've had this happen a few times, where enemies will spawn out of nowhere next to me. This was the Bunker level:

Oh, that is vanilla thing:D When bot puts on alarm, those one spawns there, but for some reason if you will go there, this bot spawns there anyway.

I tried this in Steam launch options:
"G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\FarCry\Mods\FCAV\game.bat" %command%
Where that .bat does work to bypass the launcher when launched outside of Steam, but using that command Windows gives me a strange error saying it can't find farcry.exe in the openFC folder even though it's right there.

.bat file will not work with steam.

Got it, will investigate it and then tell the results. UPD: Solved. Answer is here: https://farcry1.itch.io/far-cry-advanced-version/devlog/924916/how-to-play-fcav-via-steam-with-overlay-far-cry-fixes
