fc2-systemdetection

Drop-in replacement for Far Cry 2's systemdetection.dll.

Why?

The original DLL crashes on systems with 32+ logical CPU cores due to a bug in the CPU topology detection code. This replacement fixes that issue.

Installation

1. Download systemdetection.dll from Releases
2. Navigate to your Far Cry 2 installation folder
3. Backup the original bin/systemdetection.dll
4. Copy the downloaded DLL to the bin folder
5. Launch the game

Common Install Locations

• Steam: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Far Cry 2\bin
• GOG: C:\GOG Games\Far Cry 2\bin
• Ubisoft Connect: C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Far Cry 2\bin

Building

Requires Rust nightly and the 32-bit MSVC toolchain:

The DLL will be at target/i686-pc-windows-msvc/release/systemdetection.dll
