Far Cry 3: Silent Menu patcher

Patcher that modifies FC3.dll/FC3_d3d11.dll to remove the awful background noise played within pause screens (a very loud electronic hum).

This solution was provided by koorashi in this reddit post from December 2012 ^{(web archive)}.

Instructions

Drag FC3.dll or FC3_d3d11.dll onto this program to apply the patch. A backup copy will be created with _orig added to the end of the file name.

Which DLL to patch depends on your video settings in-game:

• FC3.dll if you are using DirectX9
• FC3_d3d11.dll if you are using DirectX11 (default)
• (If you're unsure, then just patch both DLLs)

Location

The DLL file can be found in: <FC3 INSTALL FOLDER>/bin/.

For example: C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Far Cry 3/bin/FC3.dll
