Beat far cry (not as displeased with the ending as many other people seemed to be) and now i was interested in having a little fun with the cheats. I have been having trouble getting them to work, any suggestions?

Go to your Farcry directory and find the Devmode.lua file, make a backup of this file. then open the original with notepad. gives: No clip mode [F4] Move to next Checkpoint [F2] Save current position [F9] Load current position [F10] Toggle Extar Info [F11] First person/third person camera [F1] Default speed [F5] Increase speecd [=] decrease speed [-] Godmode [Backspace] 999 ammo [o] All weapons [p] Ghost mode (enemies can't see you) [9] No reload for 999 shots [8] water, vegitation and fog off [5] Replace all of the text with this (the entire contents of my DevMode.lua file): cl_display_hud = 1 cl_drunken_cam = 0 ThirdPersonView = 0 --p_model = "objects/characters/pmodels/hero/hero.cgf" --Input:BindCommandToKey('#Movie:StopAllCutScenes()',"F7",1);

did that, still ain't workin, what am i missing? i heard something about adding -devmode to the executable or something? what's all that about?

Oh yeah, Sorry about that. Find the desktop icon (or make one if you don't have one), right click it and go to properties. Change the file path to: "C:\Games\Ubisoft\Crytek\Far Cry\Bin32\FarCry.exe" -devmode Obviously, if your farcry isn't in c:\Games like mine is, change it accordingly. If you run the game by clicking 'play' on the popup box when you insert the CD, the cheats won't work. You need to run the game by clicking the desktop icon you just modified. Hope this helps.
