Far Cry 2

Far Cry 2

Can't unlock Underground Cell north of Mosate Selao
Here's the location . I am out of pills but now I'm soft locked because that location won't unlock. I come there, kill all the enemies but I never get the notification that I unlocked the location and I can't enter the building. Leaving and coming back doesn't work, I tried it 4 times already, I kill all the militiamen again and nothing.

And yes I have searched for stragglers every time, there are no enemies that are wounded against a wall or tree, it just won't unlock.

Sorry for your trouble. I have just a couple of questions -

Are you using a mod?

Do you launch the game with Multi-Fix for Far Cry2 ?
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1620638035

Have you tried loading a saved game from before getting the mission?

If you need a saved game at the same point with the building unlocked please let
me know and I'll add it to my list. - I'm in the process now of collecting key saves,
and have just arrived at the southern map.

- Best of Luck - !

I am using my own mod I pretty much stitched together out of three other mods: Infamous Fusion, Tom's Realism+ and Far Cry 2 Redux. Played through the game with all three before and never had anything like this happen.

I don't use Multifixer since I find the pop-up every time I launch it annoying and I already edited in most features it does into the game directly.

As for saving, I wanted to do that...problem is I regularly delete my previous quicksaves and always just use one slot for saving, so I have no save that predates me getting that mission.

Ok - Thanks for the info. - I'll play through to the mission and post the save as
soon as I have it. - Starting my first Faction mission after the Barge incidents, it
shouldn't take too long.

Nah you don't have to, besides I got through most of the faction missions by now. As far as I know, malaria doesn't affect anything.

At 81% you get a break from malaria attacks until you do the next main/faction mission.

I clipped this from my guide to make it easier. - There's a link on my profile.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
You'll get another break from malaria attacks later on in the southern map;

after you escape the prison.

Your vacation from attacks ends when you start this -

I need to play through a few more times anyway. - Like I said I'm collecting saved
games at key points. - The more the merrier.

Key save points are needed too often; They're requested here and I need them for
testing different aspects of the game more efficiently so I'm compiling a complete
list of saves.

Alright, somehow, SOMEHOW, I completed the mission for the UFLL where you kill the arms dealer on his barge, dropped a bomb on him and I after I kill the reinforcements that came with my buddy I get notified "You have unlocked an Underground location", then I drive over there, kill all the guys again, AND I COULD ENTER! Finally got my pills.

No idea what happened, this is like the 3rd mission I completed since I got the bug.

Have you tried going to another underground location?

I see you've made your own combo mod. Does that include capping the frame rate?

Nope, though I only unlocked one other Underground location in that area, went to the doctor in Mosate Selao though but he wasn't there, since I already had that location assigned.

And nope, I just turned Vsync on in the options menu. Never had any of the high FPS issues...I mean I really couldn't, I barely get to 60 FPS as it is on my machine.
BigTinz Sep 15, 2021 @ 2:29pm 
It's less about getting 60, and more about preventing FPS spikes that can freak out the physics.

I would never play FC2 without capping the frames.

I would recommend capping the frames, reloading your save, and then visiting a different underground location.

...and stop overwriting saves! FC2 isn't stable enough to only have one save file. :steamsad:

Well as I said I always have Vsync on, so it's capped at 60.

As for the bug, It fixed itself...somehow.

I actually never had any significant issues or bugs playing the game before, aka beating it like 50+ times over the years. Though me constantly editing values might have something to do with it.

V-Sync is broken in FC2. If it worked, there wouldn't been dozens of threads about bugged out NPCs, and corrupted saves. Unfortunately, you can have it on, and the problems will still occur.

Seems like a moot point in this instance, though. Glad to hear it worked out for you!

Really? I've only ever had the jumping NPC glitch once on my gaming rig (I miss you, gaming PC) and I fixed it immediately by turning Vsync on. Never had any other bugs nor crashes in over 12 years of playing this game.
