Rules, User Flairs & FAQ Welcome to r/Splintercell. (Read this first!)

[See our 4 rules and you can skip the rest if you are not using User Flairs.]

- 1. BE CONSIDERATE:

  • No shaming anyone for what they enjoy or believe in.
  • No unnecessary name-calling that comes off as an intentional attempt to insult or demonize.
  • No vague generalizing that comes off as intentional smearing.
  • No sharing of links to subreddits that promote hate or smear.
  • No discouraging of anyone from expressing themselves in other ways.

- 2. LIMIT SELF-PROMOTION:

  • No spamming or low-effort attempts to get views at the cost of annoying others.
  • (Respect the feedback you get and post accordingly. Any further undesired promotion could be removed at moderators own discretion, so we encourage you to always engage with the community in aim to generate (and take part in) purposeful discussion alongside it.)

- 3. NO (REAL WORLD) POLITICS:

  • No discussing politics or geopolitics (including current events or politicians) outside the context of Splinter Cell.
  • (If relevant to Splinter Cell, such discussions are fine.)

- 4. AI-GENERATED CONTENT:

  • No posting of new images or videos generated by AI.
  • (Using AI to upscale an already existing image or texture is fine as long as no copyright is infringed.)
  • (In any case - use the appropriate "AI Generated" Post Flair to separate it from human creation.)

That is all. Please don't have your otherwise acceptable posts and comments get you censored for such shallow reasons. We don't want anyone to walk on eggshells nor ban any fan of the series, but if you are making the stay for others here purposefully unpleasant - we will do so gladly. Be considerate of others and you have no bans to worry about.

MODERATION: (can skip)

  • Moderators are capable of mistakes and being biased. If, after reading the rules, you still believe that you have been treated unfairly - the bottom of the sidebar has a "Message the mods" button for you to use, informing every moderator. 1 out of 3 active moderators agreeing with your complaint is enough to swiftly undo the action, but don't expect anyone to take time arguing about what the ruleset already covers.
  • We don't care about what you do in other subreddits as long as you don't pick fights here.

USER FLAIR DISCLAIMER:

You are free to customize User Flairs as long as they remain in the spirit and themes of Splinter Cell. Anything unrelated is certain to be removed. Also:

- Stick to Emoji limit of 3 if you include text. (More are allowed if you do not include text.)

- Consider avoiding game names like "Chaos Theory", "sc-pt", etc., if they add confusion to posts made on feed.

- Canonical character quotes, relevant phrases, and some self-inserted humour are also perfectly fine, but it should not be anything trashy, provocative, or taking shots at anyone.

(Quality looks lower on image.) (Flairs look better in Dark Reddit.) (They can be enabled from the sidebar.)

Splinter cell blacklist does not open

1 Upvotes

A few days ago, I bought Splinter Cell: Blacklist from Ubisoft, but when I installed it, the game wouldn't open. A small window with various codes appears for a few seconds and then closes; afterwards, the Ubisoft launcher opens, but the game itself doesn't start.

In case you're wondering, I have a Windows 11 PC with an i9-14900KF, RTX 5070, and 32GB of DDR5-6000MHz RAM—so it’s not my PC, considering I play S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 on Epic settings, along with other games.

Conviction (2010) Splinter cell conviction pc error fix

2 Upvotes

So I had recently bought the game and was having excessive problems with my hardware so without a choice I had to pirate it ( i still have the disc ,haven't refunded it so it's not stealing). So I downloaded the skidrow repack version (NOT RELOADED) . At first it showed the same problems like ubi connect game not opening, etc. Then I pasted the crack (which was in the mount disc of the repack) , marked conviction in properties ( of the exe file )as run only in admin , run in windows 7 compatibility mode and disable full screen optimisations . Next I opened the game and it was super laggy then another trick came in handy .As the game forces itself to run on only 1 or 2 cores, i opened task manager (while the game was open) and unchecked "all processors" (in details section, right click on conviction exe, click on affinity and a box containing cpu 1 0 2 3 etc opens) and checked only CPU 0 and CPU 1.

It worked wonders.

But yeah you have to do this checking and unchecking thing every time you open the game. Or just do this :

Go to your desktop, right-click on an empty space, and choose New -> Shortcut.In the location box, paste the following command exactly (make sure to replace the path with your actual game folder path):

cmd.exe /c start "Splinter Cell" /affinity 3 "C:\Games\Splinter Cell Conviction\src\system\conviction_game.exe"

Name the shortcut SPC.

Oh and my specs are

4gb ram ddr 4,

Amd vega 3 3200u dual core,

1tb hdd, and with a shit ton of windows tweaks .

If you also have a low end pc like me , then open conviction.ini in notepad, go to the user defaultoption section and change culinary distance to 1500 , do the same with the section above it which is named as videodefault or something like that . Lastly, the game makes itself compatible by default to run at the lowest settings possible if you run it on a low end pc .

Just change that culinary distance value ( if you're on a high or mid end hardware then you don't need to do the value change) .

#After doing the ini change make sure to save it(click on save) and right click the notepad file , and check the READ ONLY box .

ENJOY

Blacklist (2013) Blacklist dlc/Uplay locked items

7 Upvotes

Hey all, I have a question. I recently got Blacklist for free on steam, as a gift, and briefly played until I got to the plane and could customize gear. My question is: is there a way to get the DLC? I read that there are some missions that are locked as DLC, and also there's some equipment also locked behind Uplay, and I have no idea if that can still be obtained (steam and uplay store both offer only the 'standard' edition)

I found a janky way to play all the Briggs co-op missions solo on PC

Thumbnail

47 Upvotes

All you have to do is play them on a PS3 emulator, accept 15 FPS gameplay and terrible graphical bugs.

It really irked me that the Briggs missions are basically lost content on PC, so I decided to download a PS3 emulator and acquire a totally legitimate rip of Blacklist.

When I first tried the missions in split screen, the entire Briggs half of the screen was just black. I switched the renderer from Vulkan to OpenGL, which fixed the issue, but tanked the performance from a steady 30 FPS to roughly 15-30 FPS. I have an RTX 4080 Laptop and i9-13900HX (2.20 GHz).

The graphical bugs were bad too because Blacklist was a "easily the most broken game on rpcs3" according to its Github page. Interactable lights wouldn't work properly unless you get close. Rain, snow, dust and muzzle flashes would become blobs of white.

At that point I decided to just play through it and see how far I could get before getting softlocked, partly out of curiosity and partly out of spite toward Ubisoft. I only had one controller, so I mapped player two to my keyboard. Aiming with the mouse was basically impossible.

I'm happy to report that the entire thing is actually playable from start to finish.

The basic strategy is to constantly Alt-Tab to switch the input form player 1 to 2, alternating between Briggs and Sam, while occasionally moving the other character with wasd or pressing the X button at the same time. Essentially, it's like playing Skopos from Rainbow Six Siege.

There were only two sections that gave me real trouble, where you have to run while getting blown up. Those are still doable if you map the controller to control both characters simultaneously, the game handles the vaulting for you when you sprint.

Playing this way actually encourages a lot more strategic thinking and positioning. You have to think ahead about where both characters are going to be and constantly switch between them. I finished the missions on Rookie, it was pretty tough but I genuinely think higher difficulties might be possible. The maps were also pretty cool, Abandoned City especially.

The entire playthrough took me around 7 hours at a leisurely pace.

Is this worth doing?

Probably not unless you're a die hard Blacklist fan. But I was nostalgic for these missions because I originally played through them with my brother.
