What's Changed

Initial release! Some minor fixes to start, I've been busy rewriting stuff for the new folder layouts.


馃悰 New Bugfixes:

Shared Bugs:

  • Fixed monitors going to sleep during long cutscenes (Windows only, Linux needs to be fixed by Valve.)

MGS4 Bugs:

  • Fixed the MGS1 flashback sometimes defaulting to integrated graphics processors on systems with multiple GPUs.
  • Fixed performance issues with the MGS1 flashback on some hardware configurations. (Windows fullscreen optimization issue.)

Peace Walker Bugs:

  • Fixed Peace Walker sometimes defaulting to integrated graphics processors on systems with multiple GPUs.



Installation

Steps

  1. Download the latest MGSPatriotFix release from the Assets section below.
    • There are two separate ZIP files per release, one for each game:
      • MGS4_MGSPatriotFix_<version>.zip for Metal Gear Solid 4
      • PW_MGSPatriotFix_<version>.zip for Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker
  2. Extract the contents of the ZIP into the matching game's root folder.
    • MGS4: steamapps\common\METAL GEAR SOLID 4
    • Peace Walker: steamapps\common\MGS_PW
  3. Launch the MGSPatriotFix Config Tool in the game's root folder to generate a settings file if you're installing the mod for the first time.

Steam Deck/Linux Additional Instructions

Note

馃毄 These steps are only needed if you鈥檙e on Steam Deck/Linux. Skip if you鈥檙e using Windows.

  • Open up the game properties of either MGS4/MGSPW in Steam and add the following line to the launch options:

    WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winmm=n,b" %command%
    
  • MGSPatriotFix's Config Tool requires ProtonTricks to be installed via Linux's Discover software store.

  • When opening the MGSPatriotFix Config Tool on Steam Deck/Linux, a ProtonTricks Wine Prefix window will pop up. Select any game and hit "OK" to open the MGSPatriotFix Config Tool.

    • If you do not have any games in the list, or the MGSPatriotFix Config Tool fails to launch, add it as a non-Steam game and launch it once through Steam to generate a new ProtonTricks Wine Prefix entry.
    • You can remove the Config Tool from your Steam game list and launch it directly after generating this prefix.

Configuration

  • See MGSPatriotFix Config Tool.exe in the game's root folder to adjust settings for the fix.
