FarCry Patch 1.3 & SM 3.0

Danhill · Oct 28, 2004, 06:09 AM

If you recall a few months ago Crytek did release a patch 1.2 for FarCry. In that patch it provided beta support for Shader Model 3.0 and Shader Model 2.0x as well as geometry instancing. These features were not enabled by default; you had to enable them via a command variable. However, Patch 1.2 was quickly recalled by Crytek due to a large amount of stability problems with the new patch. Since it was a recalled we chose to wait it out until the 1.2 patch officially became available to the public again. Well, that time never came. Instead Crytek pushed forward with Patch 1.3, adding more bug fixes and new graphics features. FarCry patch 1.3 is now a reality and looks likely to stay with us.
