Registry file that enables extras

http://openworldgames.org/owg/forums/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=6

Here's the raw text, in case you're paranoid:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ubisoft\Far Cry 2]
"PartnerKey1"=dword:00000001
"PartnerKey2"=dword:00000001
"MachetesKey"=dword:00000001

Just to ensure that I'm on the same page, this includes the Predecessor bonus missions and the cool machetes, correct?

Yep, that should give you all predecessor missions and the machete selection.

Downloaded it last night (thanks D_B) and a weird bug occurred... not too bad though. Now when I hit ESC and get that page you can choose journal, stats etc... I can't choose quit. The option is there, but it just won't "light" in red when I pass the cursor over it... I have to choose quit to menu and then quit again to go to desktop.
As I said, not bad at all.. but its weird...
Oh... just to check. Once it is installed, I just wait for my phone to ring and assign me a Predecessor mission, right? I'm in ACT II, so maybe envelopes in ACT I will be missed or only available if I go back north??

I was so excited that I installed it at 4:13 am - worked flawlessly, and the homemade  machete is already my favorite.  JRD, you are correct - you'll either receive a phone call or you'll see the white envelope icon north of the southeast bus stop in Leboa or at the post office in Bowa.  I haven't seen that yet in my current game - just started a new one.

I edited my registry using regedit. I like the "primitive" machete...
I don't think the "quit game" is a problem, I have that too sometimes. I don't know what causes it, but I think I had noticed that behaviour before I edited the registry. Maybe, I did use some of the codes that you can enter in the menu (found them on a cheat site some time ago) which is basically the same as the regedit of D_B. If those predator missions are the reason, well... still you can quit at any given time hitting alt+F4  ;D

I keep forgetting that the standard Windows key commands will w@&k within the game - thanks for the reminder about Alt-F4

Strange about the quit menu item, I've never seen that, though the other day the Jackal Tape & Predecessor Tape items were greyed out for some reason. After a restart, they were back.

To quit, I just type "quit" in the console.

I typed in the codes to get the latest content(pc), and I get the Can't quit from the in-game menu problem. It doesn't highlight  that option, so I just quit to the main menu, then quit.

I too am now experiencing the "quit" issue.  Not a big deal though, still easy to exit.

for some reasons, it doesn't always gray out. I can't see a pattern

I've had it that way for as long as I had the game. It's never been grayed out. I just quicksave then ALT-F4 if I'm in that much of a hurry, otherwise its what, two seconds to get to the menu?

the registry update? double-click, done. Should make a backup of the registry first and perhaps set a safe point of return in windows, in case you're worried about your win reg.

see this post: first mentioned reg edit

Yeah, probably not a bad idea to do a registry backup first. I probably should, but never do and just face the consequences :-)

Awesome, I like the "primitive machete" and the predecessor missions/tapes are pretty cool.  :-X
