Support for 16:10 monitors
I just cannot play this game with 2 inch black bars on the top and bottom of my monitor. It ruins my gaming experience and others as well. If Ubisoft doesnt fix this then good job! again you stole our money.

I agree - whats the point of having a 16:10 ratio option in the game if it does actually work properly!?! There is a workaround however, there is a 'Remove Black Bars' exe you can download and run that does the job...

http://www.filedropper.com/fc4blackbarsfix

It works - all you have to do is be in game (not just at start menu) alt-tab out - run the program, click remove black bars - it takes a few seconds - and bingo, no more black bars...

Its a pain to have to do this everytime you play the game, but until ubi fixes this issue its the best we have...

they never wanted to fix it as back when the game shipped 16:10 monitors were on the way out and 16:9 was the new standard aspect ratio for games

and the most popular on steam

see the wiki page about it

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/16:9_aspect_ratio

Also the final patch for FAR CRY 4 came out in Spring 2015

since then the game was moved to legacy status and no further work was / or is to be done on it
as they no longer have the original dev TEAM OR A BUDGET

the game is AS IS now ... and they never even fixed the STABBY HOLE that was reported many months before the final patch

i call it the stabby hole since some guy called stabby found it .. posted about it ...and said it even kills tigers

i wish i had a link to it ..but its just a small hole in the map you fall thru . when asked about it.... UBI MISTY admitted its the gateway to Narnia :lol

and yes it does indeed kill tigers ..so id stay away from it if i were you

for that and other glitches .. see

Hello everyone, thank you for sharing a workaround you found that requires a mod file.

We were unable to fix this issue when the game was still in active development and we still had a QA team working on the title, so unfortunately any issues found in the game or with its settings will remain in the game.

As with all mod files that players choose to download, we must advise caution when downloading files from unknown sources in case this has a negative effect on your game or system, so please use caution, thank you
