Far Cry 2 can be modded now

Someone wrote modding tools for it.

Stuff accomplished so far:

- vehicles no longer chase you from checkpoints. You can run through them and escape much easier.

- different damage model. The game uses a location based damage model for all parts of the body, and it can be modified - torso shots can be more deadly, for example.

- all weapons unlocked, weapon degradation slowed down, items cheaper to buy

- different weapon stats (accuracy, range, damage). Bullet drop and removal of hitscan may be possible.

- more stamina, no malaria

- new assets can be added to the game

Visit this thread, download the tools and start changing stuff as you like. Most of the things listed here can be changed by simply modifying a numerical value. You can find instructions in that thread, it's pretty easy to do. The first two things in my list address the two biggest complaints against the game. Have fun trying other stuff.

:shock: Please let there be a mod for no repawning outposts. Atleast no respawn for a long time. I remeber I killed people at an outpost. Then I ran in a cliff valley and they all spawned again. I wasnt even 100 yards away.

I guess better late than never but don't see a fix to the instant respawning checkpoints issue.

Better late than never.

no malaria? :O DO WANT

You can upgrade your cars and just rush through the checkpoints.

Ohhhh my gawd... you don't know how long I've wanted this. All those little things that brought down such a great game can now be fixed! I hope more people experiance what a great fps far cry 2 is now. And the graphics still look great for today.

no respawning checkpoints? no malaria? :D

if it did that would be one hell of a mod :D

What I don't understand is why mods tools aren't released, or requested more often by the community, as a standard. It seems to me, that more often than not, it's the small developers out there are open to new and fresh ideas - yet companies like Ubisoft, Activision, EA (etc.) feel the work is finalized and done once the Xbox port is complete.-CheeseEater-

Only thing that bothers me is that it looks really complicated to set up and may **** with the story so I may play it on the PC and just deal with the bad points again.

Are you seriously complaining about too much shooting in a shooter?

Just because it's open world doesn't mean it has to come with a RPG baggage.

It should have had since the beggining! Perhaps when people mess around fixing the boring crap on it, i'll get it.

I think the weapon degradation was actually a little generous, so that's not the problem. The problem is that enemies don't suffer from it but somehow their gear is one clip away from exploding in your hands, and if I remember right System Shock 2 had the same issue when taking enemy weapons (and it was so bad they patched it).

Everything else looks great, but I actually like malaria since it added another layer to the surviving and got you to experience the civilian suffering side of things.

Anyways, I'll be sure to check this out. I have the game on PS3, but I recently got a cheap version during the Steam sale and I haven't played it yet, this should give me a reason to.
