How to Play METAL GEAR SOLID 4 on PC (RPCS3 2024 Update) 

same, i was searching for the europe version, and is pure HELL

Works too, just extract the iso with WinRAR or 7zip and you'll have the playable files

Bro please help me get the same experience as you, where did you download the game? where are the PKG and RAP files?

@@SolidusJoelme 2 i want the game files

@@SolidusJoelSAME

No the new one is just for the base game, i plan on making a separate video just for the master mod

​@@Igor.LGreat man can't wait. I just finished downloading the game

I dontt know why, but after the third reboot with all these same settings, now it sticks to 60. I literally didnt change a single setting? Weird

another question before your answer, but why are all the titles in Italian in your videos?

Save file location is \dev_hdd0\home\00000001\savedata\(Serial Code of the Game) If you got your save from a PS3 it needs to be decrypted before using it on RPCS3, it can done with a program called "PS3 Brute Force Save Data " And i translate my titles and description to multiple languages for wider reach on RU-vid, you're seeing Italian because your RU-vid is set to Italian

Just once

Yes

Try these on the CPU settings: Preferred SPU Threads: 1 Enable SPU loop detection

If you dump the game into your PC, yes. But not as an external player

@@Igor.L Thanks man, you rock!!

​ @SebWYT i ran into the same problem, can somebody help

never mind just did it lets goo

Never mind it was a bad file I fixed it

No, other games might use the folder format - it's a folder with the game files inside

@@Igor.L what to do in that case? You copy like "mgs4" with inside ps3_game and ps3_update? Thanks

Yeah, pretty much

Did you enable the libvdec codec?

Leave it and configure the rest of the settings, if everything goes according the video i guess you don't have to delete it.

@@Igor.L all good now, good guide brother

Something is wrong with the imported_patch.yml file, try doing this part and make sure it looks exactly like i show in the video, capitalization matters

@@Igor.L There's something missing. I have the same issue, I've tried about ten times following exactly. Still won't work.

Just did it today after updating RPCS3. I made a dumb mistake and forgot the colon after “Version 1.2” so it didn’t work until I caught that mistake. Might consider downloading a free code editor like VS Code and pulling up patch.yml and imported_patch.yml to compare formatting side by side. Indentation and line breaks matter with yml files.

That means something is wrong with the imported patch file

Nor will it ever work because From where it is not even God can give like this and here If the ISO file is incomplete even the emulator can not read what is not there so you can forget There is missing data in the ISO file was not created in properly the running part of the game is incomplete and that's why it can't be played it installs it goes to the launch screen it goes past those octopus videos with that contest with the one rubbing her purse in her hands and that horror kitchen and then when she enters the game or it freezes when it starts to show the high voltage current wires or if it goes past them it freezes when the snake right after the snake jumped out of the truck and it can't be run I tried all kinds of settings I also tried patch beds I meant to say and it still doesn't run for nothing, the same problems, the same defects, I also reduced the resolution to the maximum that the emulator allows, and I also changed from Vulcan to Opel, you understand what opening It's about, and it still doesn't run, it doesn't work because there are missing data for the unemployment of emulator display shows missing data could not be found or write error or something like that so it can't run because the iso disc is not good it's like you want to listen to music without problems on a vinyl disc vinyl with scratches that keep throwing the needle back at least there you can pick up the Needle and put it in front But in the game You can't do that

Yes, the precompilation bug for example is fixed on version 2.00 if you use either the digital, 25th Anniversary and Legacy Collection version of the game

​@@Igor.L excuse me but you know where i Can find this version ? I have the legacy collection on my PS3 but i haven't a blu-ray for dump it

i heard you can could find it on a place called no pay station

@@Igor.L when i download the pkg file, is very small

It's like that, RPCS3 is very demanding on the CPU (much more than GPU)

There's something wrong with the imported_patch file, make sure it's writen exaclty like i do in the video

I redid everything but it worked this time, I still haven't identified the bug but I can finally play another masterpiece by Kojima thanks to you, you explain it very well and deserve more likes, thank you very much once again and may God bless you.

Did you activate the cellspurs patch?

What does it say when you double click on it?

@@Igor.L I figured it out. I had to click on show all. It was only showing certain file types.

Custom

RU-vid is cracking down on videos that make reference to game downloads/gambling/etc, so I'm making new versions, the videos will be back

let me know when u find out

Vimm

Did you activate the cellSpurs?

Yes

Because I can't, if you show how to get it you get striked by RU-vid, I said in the video that it's against RU-vid's policy.

@@Ratfkr it says Download unavailable at the request of the Entertainment Software Association

No you need the mgo2 client, it's a separate app

@@Igor.L I'm just trying to get the downloadable dlc stuff, but i can't get that to work because it requires to connect to internet.

@@ScorchLights Oh, then I'm not sure if it's possible

@@Igor.L Ok i figured it out, in the configurations just to go network put connected and put this dns: 142.171.43.167, launch game and donne

There are links, unless you're talking about links for game download? Those i can't, if you put game download links RU-vid deletes the video

PKG and RAP?

@@Igor.L both

@@NeilAumaster Hm, did you read the fixed comment and followed the instructions there?

@@Igor.L yes, except the rusty psn

@@NeilAumaster The pkg you have is the same on the video? 27.9GB file size?

Someone wrote instructions here in this comment section

No, it's old

Did you rename the .rap by any chance?

Must be something wrong with the imported_patches.yml file, try remaking this part again and make sure it's exactly like i do in the video, spacing/formatting and everything

@@Igor.L ok everything works now I just f*cked up 1 smalll thing

Something went wrong with the imported_patch file

@@Igor.L ah so should i delete the file and make a new one?

@@Benman2704 Yes, and make sure you follow exactly what I show in the video

@@Igor.L ah wait i figured out what i did wrong i downloaded the japanese version of the game

@@Igor.L so if I downloaded the game version 2.0 should I type "Version: 1.2" in the text file too?

turn flickering option off if you havent

Did you manage to fix this? Same is happening to me. The disc icon also has a question mark on top

FIX for my issue: Update to the latest version of RPCS3 and the latest PS3 firmware

There's a workaround if you downgrade RPCS3 but i don't know how well it works Read here github.com/RPCS3/rpcs3/issues/10148

@@Igor.L Does this work on all games that have the same problem ?

I think so

@@Igor.L i checked the link and it says to use an older version of Rpcs3 where can i find it ?

@@therkiller4682 rpcs3.net/compatibility?b

What's the CPU? It matters more on rpcs3

@@Igor.L Im playing on laptop with Ryzen 7 3750H and RTX 2060 (mobile) what can I expect?

vimms lair dont have it no more):

@@JayTeeDahPrince have u figured it out yet?

What code? The serial?

@@Igor.L nha i faind it it work ty

Why?

You're missing the RAP file, when you install games in .pkg format you also need to install the .rap file

@Igor.L I had it, the issue was that the .rap file I had had a space in between the letters, I finally got it working 🥲

What are your PC specs?

Yea my pc is s tier and it’s stuck at basically 20fps

Nvm I didn’t update my game that’s why I was stuck

Maybe

If anyone don't have a pc then yes but if he have a good pc why waste it to play 1 title

There's something wrong with the imported_patches.yml file, make sure it's exactly like i do in the video, spacing and everything.

​@@Igor.Lits exactly, just like the video, actually i have to repeat the file to test if im wrong, and appears the same :(

There's a bar on bottom right corner of the screen that says 'PS3 update file' when you click on install firmware, click on that and change to 'All files (*.*)

@@Igor.LThank you! problem solved

RU-vid is cracking down on videos that have game downloads references, so I'm remaking them

@@Igor.L how do i get the game files
