How to Fix: Far Cry 3 won't launch Uplay.

[SirBean]

Heres how:
FC3 Steam Not Launching Uplay Fix
goto Uplay download client install it.
Set steam to run as admin
Set FC3 to run as admin both d3d11 and reg
right click
farcry3_d3d11
and create shortcut
rick click shortcut
select properties
Set Target to: "Driveleter:\Steam\steamapps\common\Far Cry 3\bin\farcry3_d3d11.exe" "-uplay_steam_mode"
(replace Drive leter with your actualy drive letter: C:\, D:\, E:\, G:\
mod: "-uplay_steam_mode"
The Mod we're using allows steam to run uplay in steam mode.

Okay their seems to be a lot of people reading this thinking it will fix all your problems. You might have the same problem I had IF STEAM WON'T LAUNCH UPLAY. If your UPLAY is launching don't expect my fix to help you.
My fix isn't going to watch your baby, do your taxes, it's not going to upgrade your computers specs so you can play more games. So if your computer was so bad that it couldn't run this game and you still bought it and now your all "Why no work." Maybe you shouldn't be posting your ignorance, in my thread.

This is what worked for me, and I hope it works for you as it has a bunch of people here on steam to get Uplay to launch from steam.

This is for the UPlay launch and not for UPlay connecting, right?

I GOT IT YESSS!

Ok this worked for me I don't know if it will for you dom as I don't know your hardware. But all I had to do was go to the nvidia control panel and set FXAA to "OFF" (under the program settings in manage 3D settings) on both the farcry.exe and the farcry_d3d11.exe and click apply, after that booting the game through Bean's method above worked perfectly .

dude it didn't work for me. i have nvidia too and i did what you said but both of my farcry.exe and the farcry_d3dl1.exe already have the FXAA OFF. i have windows 7 btw. you might have a different os. :((((

Okay I've tried all this. But when it launches uplay it still gets me to log in, then it says " go to game " instead of what it used to say " play game " . Then when I click " go to game " it asks me for a CD key, and the one steam gave me is invalid? Does anyone have a fix for this issue?

does this work for the bad imaage error i get when i try to play this game.

[Casper]

when i set the target name it says its invalid
