The latest version of Metal Gear's must-have visual mod slices load times, adds raw mouse input, and restores Mel Gibson
Naturally.
Konami's Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol 1 is set to release Metal Gear Solid 4, but modders are still working on the PS2-era Metal Gear games. MGSHDFix, a mod focused on repairing visual bugs and improving performance, has released version 5.0 (5.0.1 with a hotfix). This update boasts performance improvements, massive reductions in loading times for MGS2, and improved soundtrack loading for MG1/MG2.
MGSHDFix 5.0 also adds the option to restore Mel Gibson's MSX2 sprites in Metal Gear 2, an automatic inventory check for doors in OG MGs, and limited raw mouse input support for third-person in MGS2 and MGS3. Speedrunners have reported a reduction of up to 5 minutes off their run times due to the new prefetch system that preloads assets for connected rooms. Overall, this update allows fans to enhance their experience of these classic Metal Gear games.
