BIG Far cry problem...

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

BIG Far cry problem...

i just got and installed far cry, and when i
try to run it, it says:

what does it mean by CD/DVD emulation software?
how can i disble this unknown software?
does the fact that i have the CD version help?

Well, its a novel solution for you here...........

IF you bought the game.........then try THE FLIPPIN SUPPORT FOR IT!!!!!!! You paid for it, its there FOR THIS VERY REASON!

I had problems with both Call do Duty as WELL as Medal of Honour Allied Assault. For BOTH of these (at different times) i went to THE OFFICIAL WEBSITES and then used either the "ask a question" or "support" or EMAIL the support team with my problem. You describe it as fully as possible..........and see what THE MAKERS OF THE GAME can tell you. 10/10 times they flippin fix it, which is more than can be said of asking on a space simulators forum.

Also - both of my issues were replied to TWICE within 12 hours.......both were fixed at that time too. So they are fast and efficient - which is what you expect. Go on, try sense for once . If its NOT a bought copy, then no-one should be proffering help - go buy it instead

I just cannot understand why you are asking for help here, when they HAVE support for these things, and the support is generally EXCELLENT!!! This forum is NOT anywhere NEAR that level.

There have been problems with this in some modern games, mainly due to the more "advanced" copy protection. You don't have "Alcohol 120%" or something running do you?

Doesn't look like a ripped copy, the packaging and CD's look legit to me. However I tend to agree with Chips advice though, we're not a software helpdesk here.

Don't let the looks throw you Mustang, the pirate copy of Morrowind that I picked up once at a swapmeet, had a nice cover and even had a colour print on the CD, but it was still pirate. Interestingly, *my* FC CDs look completely different. Not that I'm implying anything .

They are real, i have a serial code one the case that Ubisoft
says is valid.

i went to www.farcry-thegame.com before i asked, i tried their
solution, it didnt work, i searched it on google twenty minutes
ago, and found a fansite that had a solution that worked
