Far Cry has been a very successful franchise for Ubisoft. As part of its marketing campaign for the release of Far Cry 3, Ubisoft Entertainment released a texture pack inspired by the game. The Far Cry 3 Source Pack brings many elements and changes to vanilla Minecraft that replicate many aspects of the game. One of the most important aspects that the developers wanted to achieve is to replicate the locations and characters of Far Cry 3 in Minecraft. To achieve this, many textures in vanilla Minecraft have been changed. There are new straw fences and walls, new water textures, cages, new textures for trees, grass has been changed to a lighter green, new crates, boxes, stone walls and much more. All of these elements combined allowed the developers of the Far Cry 3 resource pack to replicate the jungle-style visuals from the game and bring them to Minecraft.
Existing textures that have not been replaced have had their colors adjusted. Everything now looks more vibrant and the colors are much brighter. Player textures have been adjusted to more closely match the visuals from the popular shooter. The Far Cry 3 resource pack can be used with any world, but it was designed mainly for the Far Cry 3 map developed by the same people behind the resource pack. Since the game is not all about the environment and is a first-person shooter at its core, the resource pack also had to introduce new weapons and tools. Since that wasn’t enough, the developers also changed the GUI, inventory, and fonts. There are also some new sounds. Going one step further, the Far Cry 3 map developed by Ubisoft to replicate locations from the game also features 50 hidden bonuses for Minecraft players to discover. The source pack itself uses the same 16x resolution as vanilla Minecraft. It works well on older systems and can be installed manually or with Optifine HD.
Far Cry 3 should be compatible with all of these versions of Minecraft: 1.7.10 - 1.7.9 - 1.7.4 - 1.7 - 1.6.4 - 1.6.2
