Far Cry 4 video problem

Hey guys, I just picked this game up yesterday and was wondering if any of you playing in SLI are experiencing this? It's like a frozen see through image. Look close you'll see it.

I haven't found a way to fix it. It's not the Nvidia driver, I have tried the latest and the beta and the same thing happens. This is not my video but it is exactly what is happening to me. I saw where ubisoft is going to release another patch. Let's hope that fixes it.

Or do any of you guys know of a fix maybe in the gamer profile?

I found a temporary fix, what fixes it is changing the screen resolution, go back to the game, then change the screen resolution back. problem is solved after doing this, the only thing is when I die or go to trade goods, check my skills or crafting and return to the game, it's back again. I'ts too much of a pain to keep changing the resolution.

i,ve had the same problem, it,s a pain, i thought it was a driver problem, tried loads of drivers and still no diff. i use just one card now,which is good enough on ultra, v-sinc makes no diff, prob the game makers did,nt bother for sli. shame spend all that money on sli and it,s wasted on a game like this 😞

Hi kevvy

The game does support sli and does work, it's just the ghost image on the screen that is annoying.

I had a similar issue when I was using driver 344.75 even to the point of causing game freezing & even bsod's. I went back to driver 344.60 set vsync to on which I never use. That made a big difference for me my game runs way better, I can now even play with DSR set looks awesome. Good luck dude and how have you been man ? looks like most of our old members left what gives..

Hey abvolt, I've been pretty good dude. Aside from the graphics issue, I think far cry 4 is a great game. I see you're running sli, did you have the problem that is in the video? It's strange we would have problems with the 344.75 driver. That one was released for far cry 4. I haven't tried anything below 344.75.


We need to try a coop mission, I haven't tried it yet and we never played coop on far cry 3.

SOLVED: After playing around with the settings a little more turning Ambient occlusion off fixes it for good. The game plays and looks much better with it off.
