I know in FC3 we had a mod, or better, a file to edit with hexeditor that allowed you to holster your weapon by performing two-handed action like knife swinging, which prevented that horrible thing that running always with a wep in your hand is. Is there a mod to holster weapon or a file to edit to allow this like in fc 3?

Alas no. The DLL file in Far Cry 4 is encrypted (so you can't even read it in a hex editor to find relevant functions) and worse any changes to it cause the game to not load. I've tried a variety of workarounds, but nothing has worked yet. And believe me I was motivated. Tried for days to no avail  EDIT - also welcome to the forums sirburton! |

eow! I truly can't believe that anyone hasn't found a way to workaround this yet! Btw I also can't believe that a great name like ubisoft doesn't care of this small, giant detail that can totally change the game experience

I think theoretically one could take an existing weapon (can't add new weapons atm) and make it invisible with no ammo. At least when you didn't want your character holding a weapon you could "equip" it, but this would tie up a weapon slot.
Not sure what else can be done.
I created a much more elegant solution in Far Cry 3 by removing auto holstering from weapons and re-adding the holster keybinding so that you could manually draw your weapon after swimming, climbing, etc. instead of automatically doing it (in essence this was almost the same thing the DLL hack was doing)
Unfortunately I went through every possible iteration of adding the holster keybinding back and Far Cry 4 simply doesn't support it. Auto holstering is handled in the game engine so without keybinding support there's no other way to override it (that I can think of).
If we had LUA support I might be able to go that route (I did some experiments on the lua scripts related to drawing weapons but nothing changed)

Hmmm I don't think you can run when scoped in on any weapon can you?
I would have to look at this. Never had a use to run with it since it's more for scouting things out. Would rather have the camera be able to be used from the Buzzer tbh. Not sure if I could get either to work though.

if you press E when on camera, hud won't be shown, so basically it would be like walking with (finally) no weps shown. But you can only walk.

Ahh I see. The only issue there is that while you are in camera mode you can't interact with objects so you couldn't open chests, doors, get into vehicles, pick things up, etc. without taking down the camera each time. Also if you go into the water the camera will automatically come down (I think). Also the camera noises. I dunno how workable that is.
I'll try to look at the gadget file again and see if there's anything that can be adjusted for movement speed.

u can btw... but it might be annoying... so i started the game fresh... i didn't took a weapon means i was with the knife the whole time... but than there is a mission when amita gives you the bow... somehow (only if you have one holster avialble) u can swich from bow to knife... getting to the lungious mission that gives you the scorpion weapon, but if u go to the base that is under attack u will be able to kill someone and for unknown reason the knife and the gun will be unequiped. so yeah you won't have weapons and as funny it is i finished the games without any weapons except thrownable things (such as knifes and grenades) ... basically it is hard (what makes it even more fun than what it is) but it also pretty cool. and wehn i mean you wont have weapon is that it will look the same as the camera with mod disabled but you will be able to run kill and more!

I am looking for a solution for holstering weapons in FC3 but the old enchanced weapon holster tweak in the dll files doesn't work anymore. It would be great to have that in this game. Thank you so much! |
