View Full Version : Metal Gear Solid HD Collection Modding Discussion And Questions (Mostly Peace Walker)

I'm wondering if any of you guys and gals here are getting this game/collection or already have it via ISO?

I'm hoping someone will take on the task of making a save editor specifically for Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. (One of the games included in the collection)

There's tons of stuff to edit/mod in it, as I have previously played and own the PSP version and now it's FINALLY on Xbox 360. Plenty of unlockables, plenty of stats, soldiers, code names, etc. An editor would be PERFECT and very helpful. It would be a rather large project due to the large number of things you can edit.

I'm willing to help and contribute by uploading saves and posting the stats associated with it once I pick up the game on release date, which is November 8, 2011.

So what do you guys think? Any takers? Can anyone here do it?

Also, what are your thoughts and opinions on this matter, as well as on the game itself? Feel free to speak up and ask questions of your own as well.

Edit: Just to be clear... While I mentioned the entire collection in the topic title, I'm mostly speaking of modding/editing for MGS: Peace Walker. There's nothing really to mod for the other two and I'm more concerned with Peace Walker.

Especially for MGS2 that is, originally we were only getting Sons of Liberty.

Everywhere is stating 11-8-11
Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Metal-Gear-Solid-Collection-Xbox-360/dp/B0050SYOOA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1320161523&sr=8-3) already has 3 "NEW"

Gamestop's was "Street Dated" for 11-8-11, which means they usually receive the game early BUT cannot sell the game until that date.
If you are looking at Gamestop's Upcoming you'll notice an "SD" next to some of the titles. Thats exactly what that means

Not to mention GameFAQS still has the same release date.

I dunno, we'll see if I get a Pre-Order notification one of these days. lol

Sly is right it is only delayed in Europe http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/puzzle/metal-gear-solid-hd-collection/news/6342269/metal-gear-solid-hd-collection-delayed-in-europe but North America gets it Nov. 8

11-04-2011, 07:37 PM
Ah thats probably it, I do see where EUR is delayed until 2-12-12.
Either way I have both MGS HD Collection and MGS Rising reserved for both systems. :D I'll be playing it on the 360 But I feel the need to get MGS on the PS3 (It won't be opened tho)

Yeah I knew it was delayed for Europe, but definitely not delayed for North America/United States. I'll be picking mine up on November 8th, 2011.

I hope someone leaks the game soon and uploads the ISO so that some of the dudes here can take a look at it and see what's up.

If that does not happen, then I will definitely make a request and upload my Peace Walker saves on here and post all stats associated with it.

Right now it's just a matter of getting the game in my hands and making a save file.

w0rd. It sucks that you can't get it Paprika! If it were region-free, I'd send out a copy for ya, provided you paid for it, of course, ha ha ha ha.

If you have a pS3, you can always import it since the PS3 is region-free.

This is the first I've even heard of this delay. Kinda pisses me off really.
I love the MGS games, of all the collections that seem to have become a fad recently, I was most excited about this one.
Any reason for the delay? Do they need the time to work on MG: Rising?

Made myself laugh there...

if you pre-ordered that game from gamestop. and, you dont get a phone call from them. saying that the game will be ready to pick up the next day. than you know it wont be in the next day.

found this over at the blu-ray forum.

Ultimarok
11-07-2011, 05:05 AM
Yeah the game's already been leaked and some of the smaller stores in the United States and Canada are breaking street date.

Hopefully the ISO will be out soon.

Pictures are posted on GameFAQs as well, but the topics are quickly getting deleted due to the rules and the moderators being BUTTHURT.

Yeah, me too. There is a way around that, though. If your local GameStop is doing a midnight release for Modern Crapfare 3, then you can go ahead and pick up your pre-order of MGS HD Collection then. I already asked mine and they said they will allow me to. Give yours a call before they temporarily close to confirm this.

Wouldn't be able to do that anyway, Working the graveyard shift (this shift for a little longer at least).
I'll enjoy it when I pick it up after work. Besides, I got the days off around when Skyrim Launches on midnight (even though I didn't request them off, it all worked out). So, I'll be picking that up as well.

Until then, I'll definately enjoy playing this ALL over again (lol still got all the MGS games to date. Greatest Hits, and Black Label) Only contemplation is for which system will I NOT be opening it for. Cuz I gotta get it for the PS3, but I'm on my 360 ALOT more then my PS3 (collecting dust when I am not watching Blu-Ray movies on it). lol

Aww I was hoping for a freebee haha:P

But yeah a mate of mine suggested the same to just import the ps3 version. Fortunately I do have a ps3 (though its more like an over priced blu ray player recently haha), but that really seems like the only viable option other than waiting.

Let me just say I have the game in my grubby hands. It's... God, it's beautiful. Manly tears were brought to my eyes. Controls are SO much better so far for Peace Walker. Haven't played MGS 2 and 3 yet. (Already beat them on PS2 anyways. And yes with the help of a cheat device/codebreaker. :P)

I want to help create or help test a save editor for Peace Walker sooooooooooo bad!

Paprika: If you have paypal and can get the money for a PS3 copy of the game, I'm more than happy to purchase a PS3 copy for you and mail it to you internationally. That's provided your goddamn customs doesn't seize it. You're in Australia, right? I hear your government is quite anal about this kind of thing. The game is rated T-M, so yeah...

But if you can get it, it'll hold you over until the Xbox 360 version releases there and in Europe.

Yeah they really screwed a lot of people over when it came down to Mortal Kombat, though I spoke to a game shop that does imports and they have a batch coming in next week so i'll probably go with them.

But, thank you kindly however for kind offer:)

No problem! I hope you get it. And yeah I heard plenty about the whole Mortal Kombat debacle! Screwed you guys out of an excellent game. Hopefully with the new and improved rating system you guys are getting, that should no longer be a problem or an issue. (They are supposed to be adding a rating of "R 18+" to your ratings system.)

lol No worries, I gotta hit the sack anyway. been working all night.
Not sure if you got my message, But I've only gotten as far as MGS 3 and it is Substance. I can only assume its the same for 2. However you can Play Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake (Located on the start menu in MGS3). So all the 360 version is missing is MGS1, 5 games in 1 for $50. Best deal for Remastered HD Graphics.

But i'd rather go through the story when it comes, so i can re-live my MGS fanatic phase again.

Yeah, I'm glad you guys are enjoying the game, but we should keep social MGS in the regular Xbox 360 discussion forum.

Slyfuldragon is right, though. We're just waiting on that one issue to be solve and as soon as it does, we're going to starting testing and checking things out.

Until then, let's be patient and give it a while as the game only came out and there's SHITLOADS to edit in Peace Walker, so this is definitely no easy task. For now though... I'll settle for just modding Heroism and GMP. Those two should be easy. Only time will tell.

The funny thing is I already forgot how you obtain the stealth gadget.

slyfuldragon
11-11-2011, 01:09 AM
in MGS3(S), You have to find and shoot all 64 Kerotans (Frogs).

To get all Boss Camo, you have to win with a Non-Lethal victory. (Except The End, you have to sneak up on The End and holding him up (aim at his head and hold it there until he lays on the ground. he will say, "I don't think so" twice then say, "Here, Take this and go." and will drop it along with a Flashbang soon after.)

If you use the Stealth Camo Device and The Spirit Camo (The Sorrow's Camo Can drain Enemies Stamina while CQC choking them and Eliminates Footstep Noise) you will be COMPLETELY Invisible to all.
:D I love me some MGS3 (all of them too, but this is my Favorite beside MGS4/MGO)

EDIT:
**Infinite Abilities - CAMO TIP**

Acquired by selecting "I Like MGS3!" The FleckTarn Camo will give you Infinite Battery (For use of Sensor or any equipment that requires battery.)

Green Face Camo. Supplies an infinite grip gauge when equipped. Is obtained by giving the player's name as "I Like MGS3" when starting a new file.
Brown Face Camo. Supplies an infinite O2 gauge when equipped. Is obtained by giving the player's name as "I Like MGS3" when starting a new file.

**Achievement Hint** 100% Camo
besides the Stealth Camo Device, The End's MOSS CAMO is the only Camo that will give your Index 100% (The Fear's will only get you to 80% anywhere at the cost of your stamina)

**Another Achievement Hint** TsuchinokoEasy way to Catch the Tsuchinoko is: Make sure you are in the Area where you fight The Fear at, Kill all living creatures, set up 3 mousetraps around the entrance of the Warehouse (that way you can clear see your mousetraps), go into the Warehouse and come back. All 3 Traps are filled and one will at least be the Tsuchinoko. Crawl over your mousetraps to pick them back up and you are good to go.

The Prison break (important): After you've been captured, you'll lose all your gear, and that of course includes your Tsuchinoko. Just proceed normally to the waterfall with Eva. After you've met up with Eva in the cave, and the cutscenes are done, go out the way you came in, so you're back outside again. The Tsuchinoko will be on the river banks, crawling along. This time, it will be visible. It should be on the river bank to your left. Just look around for it there, you should still be in sight of the waterfall, it's close to it. It might be worth looking at it in the survival viewer before you lose it, so you know what to look for. It does stand out a bit, with it's way of movement.
If you can't see it to start, just keep looking. Just shoot it with your MK22 when you find it. Don't kill it, as you will need it alive. Pick it up again, and you're set for the rest of the game, just make sure you don't eat it or dispose of it.

If you keep it alive until the end of the game, where Ocelot kindly chucks it off the plane with your items, you will gain infinity face paint and the rank of Tsuchinoko. This face paint will give you unlimited ammo when worn.
Just remember all I've said, and you should be able to catch and get all the rewards from your Tsuchinoko.

Working on the Last few Achievements for MGS3. Almost got them all on the First Playthrough. Missing a few :D

I was going to after had gotten it (so far my save has the Infitity Face Camo, Most of the Camos (All Boss Camos), the Patriot, Camera, and a few other stuff.) Thinking of re-doing it on another difficulty

However, I thought I got all the frogs the first time around but I think I either missed one or hit the same one twice, which is why I didn't get it and haven't uploaded my save. (lol I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to my shared stuff)

Just want to go back and mess around and have fun now.

i know im a little late, and im new to the site but if there is anything i can do to help or contribute in the making of a save editor wether it be an all in one (which would be difficult) or three individual editors. im no good at hex editing :( i wish i knew how to hex edit.

but id like to be able to edit my inventory also for all three so i can beat them on big boss mode and move around undetected.

if theres a way that i can help please inform me and id be more than happy to do so.
