==Notes==
* This is the oldest known build that has the files for singleplayer mode (in reality The February 2, 2012 prototype also contains these files but it's not complete).
* The map editor, multiplayer and singleplayer are playable.
* Noticeable changes:
** The loading screen sound is different
** Menu animations are different (Swipe instead of fade out)
** Intro is somewhat different from release (different dialogue and cuts)
** The handbook seems to have a different layout and character photos
** After the prologue ends - the main theme is cut differently
* The ending has some changes:
**The "Far Cry 3 / I'm Sorry" theme doesn't play during the ending. (Although it could be caused by the debug mode)
**Jasons dialogue ("I've killed so many people" reflection) plays in a different spot.
**Instead of the "Save your friends" text below the button, the text is "Save Liza" (Leftover of the old story plot)
*Contains two gym worlds (worlds with 1 or more test maps) one world for coop and the other for multiplayer.
*Contains the DLC "mp_dlc1" probably different from the final version.
*Contains 1 .xex that allow you to run the game and based on tests carried out on Xenia Canary version 15th of July 2024 it can be said that:
** '''fcx_p.xex''': Everything seems to be playable (the article photo corresponds to this .xex)

A prototype of '''Far Cry 3''' for the Xbox 360.
==Notes==
* Predates the final build by 7 months.
* Multiplayer Internal Build.
* By normal means only the menu can be accesed. To enter the map editor check the tutorial below. WARNING! Text doesn't get loaded!
* Originally found on a Terarelease 1.0 hdd (Ubisoft Massive HDD #1 - Far Cry 3, Assassin's Creed 4.rar).
* One file within the archive is lost as I can't identify the fragments in the data - ui\supertextures\weaponandgadgetlib_0.xbt".
* This build is problematic, it is unknown if this is a Xenia issue or not, but the build tends to crash sometimes. Another problem is that most of the time, the user will get stuck on a game login screen that for some reason stays on that screen indefinitely, although there is a chance that a message will appear saying that the login failed and the player can continue.
* Contains 2 .xex that allow you to run the game and based on tests carried out on Xenia Canary on Jun 19, 2024 it can be said that:
** '''fcx.xex''': Sometimes crash (the article photo corresponds to this .xex);
** '''fcx_r.xex''': Shows a Black Screen.
* Original filename: Far Cry 3 MP (March 30, 2012) [FLINT-MSV-MAIN-PACKAGE-749].3.7z

==How to enter coop / map editor in this build==

* 1. Open Xenia's config file (xenia-config.toml).
* 2. Edit the line "keyboard_mode" to "2"
* 3. Save the confing and run Xenia.
* 4. After passing the login screen use "~" to open the command prompt.
* 5. Type in these two commands in the correct order:
*** 1) : "login_setoffline 0"
*** 2) : "quitToMainMenu"
*** Local Coop and other options should be accessible now
* To open map editor enter "Dash" ---> "Create Map"
''' Playable coop maps: Payback, Ready or Not, Road Rage'''
* To play coop enter "Local Coop" ---> "Set Ready"
(To change maps, back out of the coop menu for ~3 seconds and enter again)

Far Cry 3 Assets of Incomplete Builds

2025-07-30T00:03:05Z

TheMysterPL: /* July 16th, 2012 prototype */

{{Assets
|Page name=Far Cry 3 (List of Unplayable Builds)
|game=Far Cry 3
|system=Other
|genre=FPS
|unreleased=No
}}

The development of Far Cry 3 began in 2009 and its base retail version was completed in October 2012. So there are +- 3 years of development. Despite the existence of several builds, their abundance is only in September and October 2012, which is somewhat more sparse looking back over time, so only 1 build from August 2012, 2 builds from May 2012 and 1 build from March 2012 exist as complete. These 4 builds were obtained from an HDD named <code>Ubisoft Massive HDD #1 - Far Cry 3, Assassin's Creed 4</code> which, on analysis, shows that this HDD originally stored prototypes of this game and later stored prototypes of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. The most interesting thing about this is that this HDD started being used in 2009 to store Far Cry 3 prototypes. Unfortunately, given that it was used for 4 years, nothing remains from that time other than an empty folder. However, there are still remnants of files related to builds between March 2011 and February 2012. Despite appearing useless since these are builds that are far from complete, we're talking about assets from a bygone era that can be used to be restored and used in the retail versions of the game. With this, the decision was made to share these assets.

'''in pogress'''.

=2011 Assets=

==~Mar 23, 2011 prototype==

{{Download|file=FC3_(~Mar_23,_2011)_(Only_1_World).zip|title=Assets}}

It contains a world called pvp_kas06_pitaya which, as the name implies, was used for multiplayer mode. No files are corrupted and it is 100% safe to extract them. Luckily, even though these assets are the oldest recoverable, they didn't have any corrupted files, unlike their successors.

==~Apr 11, 2011 prototype==

{{Download|file=FC3_(~Apr_11,_2011)_(Only_1_World).zip|title=Assets}}

It contains a world called pvp_jas16_durian. From its name, this is the world used in multiplayer mode. Unfortunately, pvp_jas16_durian is corrupted and it doesn't seem to be possible to recover this file via hex. However, it should be noted that this file still stores files, albeit incomplete. pvp_jas16_durian. nfo is partially corrupted and although it is possible to add the missing lines, the recovery is unfortunately partial (and it was not possible to do so). However, this file turns out to be useless because given that the beginning of pvp_jas16_durian is missing, the only option would be to recover the files via hex manually and work your way through the list.

==Sep 12, 2011 Multiplayer prototype==

{{Download|file=Far_Cry_3_FLINT-MSV-MAIN-PACKAGE-580.0_(Sep_12,_2011_00.44.35).zip|title=Assets}}

This build has executables which lets you know that the build name is FLINT-MSV-MAIN-PACKAGE-580.0 which means it's an internal multiplayer prototype. Unfortunately, only fcx.xdb, fcx.xex and fcx.exe (decompiled version of xex) seem to be what's left of this build.

==~Oct 2011 prototype==

An nfo file for an October 2011 version exists, although it is extremely incomplete. It belongs to a world called coop_press. Curiously, this world, unlike the February version, was supposed to store E3 files, which is strange because the E3 prototypes use a separate world named fc3_e3. It should be noted, however, that this world was probably used for internal conferences (hence the name press).

=2012 Assets=

==Jan 14, 2012 prototype==

[https://hiddenpalace.org/File:Fc3_(Jan_14,_2012)_(Very_Incomplete,_Only_2_Worlds).zip Download Assets]

These assets contain worlds, that may be corrupted:

* pvp_jas21_ginger

==~Feb 2, 2012 prototype==

[https://hiddenpalace.org/File:FC3_(~Feb_2,_2012)_(Only_World_Files).zip Download Assets]

These assets contain worlds, that may be corrupted:
* multicommon (map editor)

* coop_vidar
* coop_skadi
* coop_sleipnir
* coop_pvp_sof04
* pvp_jas18buddhashand
* pvp_jas19_wat
* pvp_lee01_pear

==March 8th, 2012 prototype==

These assets contain worlds, that are corrupted (only .fat's and .nfo's):
* coop_huginn

* coop_sleipnir
* coop_pvp_sof04

The development of Far Cry 3 began in 2009 and its base retail version was completed in October 2012. So there are +- 3 years of development. Despite the existence of several builds, their abundance is only in September and October 2012, which is somewhat more sparse looking back over time, so only 1 build from August 2012, 2 builds from May 2012 and 1 build from March 2012 exist as complete. These 4 builds were obtained from an HDD named <code>Ubisoft Massive HDD #1 - Far Cry 3, Assassin's Creed 4</code> which, on analysis, shows that this HDD originally stored prototypes of this game and later stored prototypes of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. The most interesting thing about this is that this HDD started being used in 2009 to store Far Cry 3 prototypes. Unfortunately, given that it was used for 4 years, nothing remains from that time other than an empty folder. However, there are still remnants of files related to builds between March 2011 and February 2012. Despite appearing useless since these are builds that are far from complete, we're talking about assets from a bygone era that can be used to be restored and used in the retail versions of the game. With this, the decision was made to share these assets.

==~Mar 23, 2011 prototype==

{{Download|file=FC3_(~Mar_23,_2011)_(Only_1_World).zip|title=Assets}}

It contains a world called pvp_kas06_pitaya which, as the name implies, was used for multiplayer mode. No files are corrupted and it is 100% safe to extract them. Luckily, even though these assets are the oldest recoverable, they didn't have any corrupted files, unlike their successors.

==~Apr 11, 2011 prototype==

{{Download|file=FC3_(~Apr_11,_2011)_(Only_1_World).zip|title=Assets}}

It contains a world called pvp_jas16_durian. From its name, this is the world used in multiplayer mode. Unfortunately, pvp_jas16_durian is corrupted and it doesn't seem to be possible to recover this file via hex. However, it should be noted that this file still stores files, albeit incomplete. pvp_jas16_durian. nfo is partially corrupted and although it is possible to add the missing lines, the recovery is unfortunately partial (and it was not possible to do so). However, this file turns out to be useless because given that the beginning of pvp_jas16_durian is missing, the only option would be to recover the files via hex manually and work your way through the list.

==Sep 12, 2011 Multiplayer prototype==

{{Download|file=Far_Cry_3_FLINT-MSV-MAIN-PACKAGE-580.0_(Sep_12,_2011_00.44.35).zip|title=Assets}}

This build has executables which lets you know that the build name is FLINT-MSV-MAIN-PACKAGE-580.0 which means it's an internal multiplayer prototype. Unfortunately, only fcx.xdb, fcx.xex and fcx.exe (decompiled version of xex) seem to be what's left of this build.

==~Oct 2011 prototype==

An nfo file for an October 2011 version exists, although it is extremely incomplete. It belongs to a world called coop_press. Curiously, this world, unlike the February version, was supposed to store E3 files, which is strange because the E3 prototypes use a separate world named fc3_e3. It should be noted, however, that this world was probably used for internal conferences (hence the name press).
