JasonF Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 (edited) There really is no clear instructions on Far Cry in the forums so I am putting this together for everyone who is trying this game for the first time ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Purchase the game and install it on your home pc (2) Patch to v1.4 - http://farcry.filefront.com/files/Far_Cry/Official_Releases/Patches;3595 (3) Copy the following 2 files from your C:\Windows\system32 folder msvcp71.dll msvcr71.dll and paste them in the C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Crytek\Far Cry\Bin32 folder. (4) Rar the entire Far Cry install on your home pc and upload to the server (5) Unpackage the files into the following folder: C:\GameInstalls\FARCRY (6) Upload the attached TCAdmin config into your System Settings >> Supported Game section I believe this is the same config that is floating around the forums with no modifications. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bugs - I can not get this game server to run on my Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition R2 x64 Service Pack 2 but it runs fine on a Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition x64 Service Pack 2 remote. I guess this game does not get along with all operating systems.Far Cry v1.40.txt Edited November 28, 2008 by JasonF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MjrNuT Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I know this is a few months old, lol, but looks like you are the knowledgable one about this game. I'd like to host this for our clan, but seems you had a buggy issue w/ Standard WS2K3x64. Is that still the case or did you find a workaround? Thanks for any input you may have or anyone else.

MjrNuT Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 After some research on learning about this game, b/c I'm only familiar with Steam OB games, I came across the following: http://www.gamershell.com/download_15791.shtml It's a full v1.4 dedicated server zip. It also has the 2 files in the BIN32 folder like you mention. I installed this game (C:\Gameinstalls\FARCRY) and used your config to create the game server. Minor adjustment in the system settings after config import. Only thing I do not understand is how this game launches (ie., command line via profiles?). The profile file calls the game type, number of players, server name, etc. as well as the mapcycle.txt file. Yet, there is no Command line Icon. Could some one please share some insight on this aspect as I believe that is my only hangup. Much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny5_Hull Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Hi I am not sure what you mean by how does the game launch, however I do know that the link you posted is not the full dedicated server file, you need the below link for the full 1.4 Dedicated server http://www.gamershell.com/news_37645.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MjrNuT Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Hey Johnny5_Hull, Thanks for the reply. Correct, that version I linked was borked. I got everything to work flawlessly a day after my last post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
