Let's thank Ubisoft again for this LOL in all the face:

21:9 support...but the FoV slider "magically" disappears when you select such resolutions.

Clap, clap, clap. ¬¬

Well as some of you may know patch 1.6 has been... unofficially released via torrent channels...

Quote:
Changelog:
Far Cry 4 Update v.1.6.0 changelog:
Added hotkey for toggling the HUD on/off (F11)
Fixed an issue when the game loaded incorrect save from Uplay Cloud
Fixed an issue with performance drop for Crossfire Multi-GPU
Fixed an issue with broken shadows in the northern region
Fixed various Controls issues
Fixed various Graphic issues
Fixed various IGE issues
Fixed various UI issues
Fixed various Uplay/Steam issues
Memory usage reduced


So Crossfire issues have been fixed!!....

BUT... as you are probably also aware the latest Catalyst Drivers since beta drivers 14.11.2 - hard disabled crossfire for Far Cry 4 until FC got their crap together.

Quote:
The AMD CrossFire™ profile for Far Cry 4 is currently disabled in this driver while AMD works with Ubisoft to investigate an issue where AMD CrossFire™ configurations are not performing as intended. An update is expected on this issue in the near future through an updated game patch or an AMD driver posting.


So I am running the 1.6 patch, alone, and still only one of my 2 cards fires up... it seems that FarCry is leaving or had to leave it up to AMD to re-enable crossfire with a further driver update.

So having working crossfire with FC4 requires either using pre-Omega buggy as sh..snot drivers, or....
as i just realized works...

rename FarCry4.exe to ANYTHING ELSE and CCC will not block crossfire from running!
renamed mine to FarCry4-2.exe and it works!!

EDIT...
it seems that there may still be a patch or driver update required before this fully works. while both cards fire up full throttle, there appears to be a memory leak now. game filling up all available memory in my system and freezing the game.

Cheers for the update. :onethumb:

Is the FOV slider still broken in eyefinity?

I still can't believe we're a month and a half since release and we still don't have Crossfire support for a AAA title...frustrating!

I just got the DR done for v1.5 of the game. Only config to get a Gold is 4k UHD. Everything else has some sort of issue. Please let me know if I missed any flaws or issues. Feel free to update the DR itself, or summarize here.

Many thanks for that. Just to clarify, modding the FOV in the GameProfile.xml file works? Had you any stuttering with SLI?

The fix about editing the FoV in GameProfile.xml does not work for me for 21:9 ratio the value seems to be just ignored/locked to 1.0

So, the information listed here for ultra-widescreen seems to be incorrect - http://www.wsgf.org/dr/far-cry-4/en

So what's the current situation with the 21:9 aspect ratio? Is the FOV adjustment still broken?

how is this on surround / sli these days?

i honestly quit playing after a few weeks. i had flickering and other nonsense with sli, then when that got patched i started getting crashes.. so i just stopped playing. just wondering if anyone has been playing on latest patches and if its any better.

Hi, could anyone give a status update about Far Cry 4? Can it be run in eyefinity and crossfire 290? I'm thinking about getting it.
