Far Cry



Change profile name and keep saved files

Use the following trick to get all your saved data transferred to a new folder with whatever name desired. Locate and enter the "\ubisoft\crytek\far cry\profiles\player" folder. This will take you to the profiles found in the game. Find the folder that contains the name that you want to change, and open it. Highlight items inside, including folder, game.cfg file and [name]_profile_placeholder.txt text document. Copy those items and go back to the previous folder. In this screen, right click in an empty area of the screen, highlight "New" and click "Folder" (or use the File/New/Folder menu command). This will create a new folder. Rename the folder to your desired name. Open the new folder and paste the files previously copied. Go back to the previous screen. Copy File [name]_game.cfg and paste in the same screen, then rename the file you just pasted on the screen. Note: Make sure the filename has the same capitalization as the folder you renamed earlier. The file must be in following format, [desired name]_game.cfg. In the same screen copy file [name]_system.cfg and paste in same screen. Rename the file to desired name following this format, [desired name]_system.cfg. Make sure the letters .cfg file extension is included, including the period. Do not erase anything. Play game and make sure it works.
