Question / Help Far Cry 3 [Ubi] P. Plourde

Grumbul · Feb 24, 2014

Anyone else tried streaming Far Cry 3 recently?

Everything is fine, right up until certain cutscenes when the game continues absolutely fine on screen but OBS just shows a black screen with [Ubi] P. Plourde on it.

This image is not viewable anywhere else - just on OBS (and thus the stream).

Most bizarre thing I have ever seen.

Just testing again.

Everything at the start of the game runs fine (opening scenes, walking through the camp, running away etc,)

However as soon as the fade to black cut scene in the hut happens BOOM, [Ubi] P. Plourde scene and that is it - no loads subsequent to that will ever be picked up by OBS - you just get the [Ubi] P. Plourde screen immediately after load.

Latest NVidia drivers, Steam version of game. Tried in Borderless, WIndowed, Fullscreen. Tried DX9 and DX11.

All have the same outcome.

Here's what happens:

Did you ever find a way to resolve this? I am having the same problem.

CritVV · Jul 17, 2014

I'm pretty interested in this aswell. I'd really like an answer to this since I experience the same. I first get "Jason Brody" then I get that Ubi. P Lourde thing....very annoying.
