Just Cause 3 (DX11)


Fix:
- Shadows
- Lights
- Sun shafts
- Halos in effects
- Reflections
- Lensflares
- Terrain tesselation
- Add dynamic crosshair and target icons

Known issues:
- Some water reflections
- Cinematics and pause menu have a nasty 2D DOF effect (use the presets)
- During night, some lights have a cut-off issue
- SLI users: if you have water issues, use WATER = MEDIUM
- Some small lights
- Some HUD icons

Presets:
- "P" key cycle between 2 convergence values, this is for cinematics and menus
- "Xbox X" button (500 delay) cycle between 2 convergence values, this is for cinematics and menus

Notes:
- The game have some heavy stutter, use LOD = MEDIUM to reduce
- or use driver 372.90 which fixes stutter.
- Use shadows = HIGH or VERY HIGH.

TB and SBS Mode:
- The game support SBS/TB Mode using 3Dmigoto. Remove the ";" in the  ;run = CustomShader3DVision2SBS in the [Present] section of the d3dx.ini. Default TB Mode. F11 to cycle.

Instructions:
- Download
- Extract where the .exe is located
- Disable Boked DOF and Motion Blur
- Use HUD = only reticle in game settings


Thanks to bo3b for help me with some decompiler issues, important to fix shadows and lights
Thanks to DarkStarSword for all the help.


Update 07-31-16 - DHR:
- Re-fixing because recent update
Update 10-12-16 - Bo3b:

    I played through Just Cause 2 twice in 3D and it was epic. I hope Just Cause 3 is good as well.

      Very hard to say. I'd start with a very current version, maybe 368.69. As far as I know that's working OK.

      Yeah, same here - game crashes with fix applied. Win 10, 368.81. No other programs running in background. Disabling SLI / 3D Vision doesn't help - game still crashes. Any ideas?
      P.S. Will try clean install of drivers and report back...

      Game launches for me, but hard crashes my system (freeze with audio going beeeeeep) like a blue-screen after about 5 minutes of play. This happens even in 2D with no fix. Probably their shitty software again. But this does seem to be a driver level bug.

      Maybe try older drivers that were working before.

      Removing the ";" from the line, leaving:

      allow_create_device=2

      Allows this to work upon my Win10 machine. Driver 368.81.

    When i uncoment "run = CustomShader3DVision2SBS" than my game crashes immediately. When I comment it again, than the game starts, but in 3D Vision mode and I cannot toggle it. :(

    I would like to try it in SBS mode.

    Please FIX

    I just installed this for the first time.
    When I launch the screen opens the disappears.
    If I uninstall the fix it opens fine.
    Was there a windows 10 problem or something needed in order for it to work?.
    My build number is 1703 - 15063.413 so the newest version.

    Cheers.

      Edit the d3dx.ini file, and look for the top section where key bindings are set up. You can comment out or change keys for any of those settings, including xbox settings. To comment out a line, put a semi-colon on the line as the first character.

    Hello, the game crashes at start when trying to play 3d with 3d fix manager.

    I tried to remove ; symbol from the [System] last line of allow_create_device=2 from the d3dx file located in C:\Program Files (x86)\3D Fix Manager\Fixes\251\ini_files and it still crashes at the start.

    is tis right? and something else I can try? thanks for the help

      Just tested this again, and it's working well. Win7, Driver 378.92. No crashes, fix is correct. Used 3D Fix Manager, and let it update to 1.3.11.

      Looks like Win10 broke things, again.

      Make sure you allow 3D Fix Manager to update to latest DLLs, then also uncomment the line allow_create_device=2 in the d3dx.ini, by removing the semicolon.

      This worked here for Win10 1803, Driver 390.77.

      I just tried the game + 3D fix for the first time and I also had that crash.

      @Bo3b: Thx for the tip with allow_create_device=2. With this the game started without any issues. Both 3dmigoto versions 1.2.44 and 1.3.11 worked. I've configured the fix profile that it adds this entry to d3dx.ini automatically now. I'll publish the updated profile for Just Cause 3 soon.

      Delete
    3. bo3bOctober 25, 2018 at 7:31 PM

      Yep, for 1.3.11 the d3dx.ini default has changed to allows allow_create_device=2, but this fix is pretty old, so it has that value unset in it's d3dx.ini. As a general rule, setting it =2 should always work now for 1.3.11 if you want make that change at the same time as dropping in the 1.3.11 dlls.

    Hello. I have a problem with the HUB. The target is a bit righter that it should. It just need to be a bit left. Can i fix it somehow? Thx for the fix!

    I also noticed this. A bit tricky trying to aim slightly to the left of the target.

      I just tried this again, and it seems to be working correctly here. Aiming seems spot on. If I aim with sniper rifle at a decal of some form, I can hit exactly the spot. I can shoot birds out of the sky, and do headshots from distance. Not sure what you are seeing here, but I don't think it's related to our fix. Be sure to set to Reticle Only.

    2. djbNovember 6, 2018 at 7:00 PM

      Hey guys, check to make sure you are NOT in Compatibility Mode If you are in CM, yes, your bullets/aiming will be off to the left. DHR fix, you'll be spot on. :-) Still one of my favorites.

    3. bo3bNovember 6, 2018 at 8:45 PM

      Good call djb, thanks for the suggestion. I couldn't think of any way we'd be affecting this. :->

      Guys- just to clarify, you either want to use our fix, or CM, not both at once. Naturally I think our fix is vastly superior and should be the call, but performance is a problem with this game. No longer stutters like a freight train though, thankfully.
