I never thought I would play it again, considering that buying a console, even an old one, where I live is unfeasible, so my hopes of playing MGS4 again were always nil. Your video finally helped me to emulate this masterpiece, thank you very much.
@@callelzada Hey man, were you able to emulate the whole game or did you run into any issues? I encountered so many game breaking bugs throughout my emulated playthrough.
Omg I spent hours yesterday on this and I have a 4090/13900KS. Yours is the only video that worked. I wonder if it was that flickering fix setting in patches as I did most everything else including reinstall the files. Whatever the case thank you. You earned a sub
I rarely write comments on YT but you dont know how thankful i am to you making this video really. I was so nostalgic about MGS4 and last time i played this game was back in 2008 on my PS3 FAT. I subbed to you. Let me know if i can donate to you somehow!
Thanks for this video brother. Straightforward and easy to follow. Been itching to dive back into this game but my impatient ass didn’t wanna wait for the volume 2 collection to release lol
I love how the emulator community members learn from each other. The UI looks incredibly similar to Dolphin, and that's good because it's a very refined and easy UI to use.
Wow I couldn't get this game to boot at all until I watched your video! Now it seems to be working! Thanks for such a thorough and easy to follow tutorial!
After all the videos I have watched, this video helped me get out of the freeze issue within the beginning of the game The game is now playable now for me Thank you for the help
I followed everything to the letter and it's giving me a popup notification that says that some of the patches aren't compatible with the current version of RPCS3's patch manager. EDIT: Redid everything, this time closing the emulator before making the patch file. It works now. Best to make sure you have the emulator closed before doing any file modifications.
Experienced a crash when going under the truck right at the start of the game BUT I think I fixed because I didn't install the patch correctly. Looking through the comments helped, works perfectly now.
Thanks a lot for this video! It made me install and configure everything and had a perfect Playthrough on my 14700K+4080S with 4K60 fps! thanks for making this possible and making this game accessible and playable again! :) PS.: you can add it with loselessscaling and play it 4K120fps super fluent
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!! My PC isn't the best, and I've been trying again and again to emulate this for about a year and nothing has worked. Thanks you SO MUCH for making this video. (jsyk I liked and subscribed:) )
Thank you very much for this tutorial, it's very helpful.I have a I9 9900K and RTX 3090 and the game runs so much better since these new patches improvements. I still have some frame drops in some aeras but other than that it's perfect and no a single crash occurs.
Finally after days i managed to get this thing working. Got rid of the freezing and black screens, but the game does not run well, although it's playable
its working perfectly !! thank you SO much!! this is amazing!!! quick thing... i set it up for mouse and keyboard.. so far so good... still getting the mouse sensitivty right .... but is there a work around for when you double click the left mouse button to shoot or CQC... and it changes the size of the window??
Oh purée toi tu tombes a point. J'ai MGS4 sur PS3 mais impossible d'y jouer correctement car les stocks des manettes sont affreux. Appraement il y a moins de bugs sur la V2 de mGS4 tu confirmes ?
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
Hi, sorry, I have a tip to consider, in the games folder you can also insert the same file that you would use on the PS3, i.e. ps3_game (with the game inside) and ps3_update, it works anyway, you don't necessarily have to install or search for a pkg file, I ask you instead but where can I change the saves because I have one with everything unlocked but I don't know which directory to go to
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 RUclips, you're seeing Italian because your RUclips is set to Italian
Thanks for all the info. I have a i7 8700k. Everything is working but performance is quite bad. Below 20 fps a lot of times, but sometimes 30, 45 or 60. Is that how its expected to run? (Even at 720p)

Now it just freezes at black screen when going under the first truck, oh well thought would have worked. EDIT: I turned on the Flickering Textures patch and it seems to have sorted it for me, it's far from perfect but playable. Thank you for the tutorial
i froze as soon as i went under the truck right at the start game was running smooth like one drop as soon as i gained control but that’s it then it fades to black as i go under the truck and bam im stuck
Mate you deserve credit, thx to your guide it's decently playable now . And i wonder if there is a fix concerning the sound flickering like in the intro tv channel sequence . And thanks again 🫡
Good tutorial! It took me a while, but I got the game ready. However, audio is very laggy and in most parts there is no sound at all, plus ingame framerate is unbearably low. Cutscenes are fine, but gameplay is running at like 2 fps.
ive been looking through videos to get this game working for a long time, this video got me the closest as i was able to get through the opening cutscene but the moment i gained control it freezes and i have to close down the game every time, i made sure my settings are the exact same but no matter what i cannot get this game working, is there anything at all else i can try as ive been on and off trying for over a month and have just finished peace walker and its the last one on my list as i wanted to play through them all, i really dont want to leave this one out.
hey sorry if this bothers but I did everything that you did but when I run mgs4 I got stuck on the new game screen, I can't even choose any other option, I'm just stuck on new game, I've tried using the keyboard, ps4 and ps3 controller but nothing works. this has ever happened to you, if yes can you help me? anyway great video and great channel
So I’m having a issue, every time I try to download the packages. It says that my the file doesn’t dowload because it’s likely my antivirus, I tried everything and it won’t work
Thanks for the video! I ran into an issue when applying the canary patches, I get an error saying that some of the patches are not compatible. Would it be possible for you to post your imported_patch file? I think the code might have been updated incorrectly in the rpcs wiki. Thanks!
Guys, please help me, I did everything right but my emulator says that the patch is not compatible, and that all option doesn't appear, what could it be?
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.
how can I use more canary patches and regular patches for other games? If the name has to be the same for the file to work, I can only use one at a time in the folder. I hope I dont have to manually move them in and out whenever I wanna switch games.
Regular game patches should be there when you load up a new game, canary has to be manually added but I don't know much about then outside of this one for MGS4
Used PAL version of the game. Only had the black screen during the first part where snake deployed in middle east. But was able to finish the game smoothly. Do not close the game during the 2 hour initial ppu compilation it will break your copy of the game.
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
Hey im having problems with the motion controls not working I have an xbox series x controller and moved the right stick in a circle many times and doesn't seem to work. Do you know why?
Yeah the only problem I’m having is the sound going in or out but it’s running smooth the controls are nice playing in 1440p just with I can fix the volume and I’m still playing in 30fps can suggestions to get 60fps
i tried getting mgs4 from vimms lair, but its only available in Japanese how do i change the language settings? it says the american and europe version are unavailable
quick question for anyone that wants to answer. i have a ryzen 5 1600 af (D-tier on that list of CPUs) and an rx 570, quite old. should i even bother trying to get this to work?
when im trying to open the "manage Game the patches option", a window with "Some of your patches are not compatible with the current version of RPCS3's patch manager" appears and not all options are shown, even the "NPUB31633 All versions" dont shows up, do you have any idea of what happend?
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
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.

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)

Now it just freezes at black screen when going under the first truck, oh well thought would have worked.
EDIT: I turned on the Flickering Textures patch and it seems to have sorted it for me, it's far from perfect but playable. Thank you for the tutorial
Thank you so much!
Hey man does the video you made yesterday about Gran Turismo 5 include the Master Mod patch like in the video you made 4 months ago?
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
patch from 16.11.2024 messed it up. crashes rcps3 while launching. worked before.
Thanks Boss!
Thank you big boss 👍👍
i froze as soon as i went under the truck right at the start game was running smooth like one drop as soon as i gained control but that’s it then it fades to black as i go under the truck and bam im stuck
It helped me just to rerun the game once - I was able to proceed like that
Mate you deserve credit, thx to your guide it's decently playable now . And i wonder if there is a fix concerning the sound flickering like in the intro tv channel sequence . And thanks again 🫡
Good tutorial! It took me a while, but I got the game ready. However, audio is very laggy and in most parts there is no sound at all, plus ingame framerate is unbearably low. Cutscenes are fine, but gameplay is running at like 2 fps.
but the ųs symbol at 200 or higher and the vblank frequency at 240 hz. Precompile the cache if you haven't
3:51 How do you even get the PKG and the RAP files
I cant find the pkg and rap files where can I find it?
Did you find it? If yes, then where?
I found the ISO which he said will work as long as extracted in 7so or winrar@@ericpereira753

hi, that 2 hours long to compile the PPU modules is just the first time is´n it? or is every time i wanna play the game?
Just one time
@@Igor.L thank you for the fast answer, i did everything in the video this is the las step
Please help me I don´t find this files. Where must I look for
Where am I supposed to get the PKG and RAP files?
let me know when u find out

ive been looking through videos to get this game working for a long time, this video got me the closest as i was able to get through the opening cutscene but the moment i gained control it freezes and i have to close down the game every time, i made sure my settings are the exact same but no matter what i cannot get this game working, is there anything at all else i can try as ive been on and off trying for over a month and have just finished peace walker and its the last one on my list as i wanted to play through them all, i really dont want to leave this one out.
i finally got the game to work! although some cutscenes have no audio to them, mainly the ones on the codex with raiden
Does it work with keyboard and mouse or only controller? Asking because i only play keyboard and mouse not really a controller player for shooters
Yes
I’m having an issue at the beginning of the game when I try to go under the lorry; the screen goes black and freezes. Have you ever had this problem?
Is the does it compile the ppu modules each time you launch the game? Or is it just the first time?
Just once
hey sorry if this bothers but I did everything that you did but when I run mgs4 I got stuck on the new game screen, I can't even choose any other option, I'm just stuck on new game, I've tried using the keyboard, ps4 and ps3 controller but nothing works. this has ever happened to you, if yes can you help me? anyway great video and great channel
Does this tutorial apply to other games as well? Like will I have to use the pkg and rap files for any game?
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
So I’m having a issue, every time I try to download the packages. It says that my the file doesn’t dowload because it’s likely my antivirus, I tried everything and it won’t work
atleast in firefox you can choose "download anyways"
Right click and select Download Anyway or Keep depending on your browser.
So how do you get the game files…..

Thanks for the video! I ran into an issue when applying the canary patches, I get an error saying that some of the patches are not compatible.
Would it be possible for you to post your imported_patch file? I think the code might have been updated incorrectly in the rpcs wiki. Thanks!
@@Igor.L Thanks man, you rock!!
@SebWYT i ran into the same problem, can somebody help
never mind just did it lets goo
Thanks so much now I don't have to buy a ps3 for one game
Guys, please help me, I did everything right but my emulator says that the patch is not compatible, and that all option doesn't appear, what could it be?
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.
question, is the wait every time I want to play, or is it first time only?
Only the first time
how can I use more canary patches and regular patches for other games? If the name has to be the same for the file to work, I can only use one at a time in the folder. I hope I dont have to manually move them in and out whenever I wanna switch games.
Regular game patches should be there when you load up a new game, canary has to be manually added but I don't know much about then outside of this one for MGS4
Used PAL version of the game. Only had the black screen during the first part where snake deployed in middle east. But was able to finish the game smoothly. Do not close the game during the 2 hour initial ppu compilation it will break your copy of the game.
Mine wont even launch says corrupted. And won’t even update from 1.0 to 2.0 pm Ben when it installs the patch.
I did all your steps but when you start the game in the menu to weight the game it doesn't work
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
Thanks 4 this! Please i need help for the advant palace, the game freeze black screen preview frogs fight :(
Do you have to do that compiling at the end just once?
Just once
Hey im having problems with the motion controls not working I have an xbox series x controller and moved the right stick in a circle many times and doesn't seem to work. Do you know why?
Everything works fine except the tv channels sequence, I can change channels but I have black/white screens and nothing shows up
Thanks!!!!
Yeah the only problem I’m having is the sound going in or out but it’s running smooth the controls are nice playing in 1440p just with I can fix the volume and I’m still playing in 30fps can suggestions to get 60fps
i tried getting mgs4 from vimms lair, but its only available in Japanese how do i change the language settings? it says the american and europe version are unavailable
quick question for anyone that wants to answer. i have a ryzen 5 1600 af (D-tier on that list of CPUs) and an rx 570, quite old. should i even bother trying to get this to work?
No, specs are too low
@@Igor.L thanks
Same brotha
everything loaded but then the game screen went black, what am i doing wrong :(
I have i5 9300H as CPU and gtx 1650 as GPU. Would it be playable? I am wondering if I can run it smoothly with lossless scaling as well.
CPU is below the recommended specs so if it runs i think performance won't be good, never used lossless scaling
when i go to open the game it will apply the SPU cashe and then just crash
Do I need to use a ps3 controller for this? or would an xbox controller also work?
Xbox works fine
where do i get the pkg and rap files from
I got a pop-up saying the patch was not compatible before updating....what the heck?
How do I change the pressure sensitive stuff on keyboard? Is there a walk button I can use to sneak?
Is this stable enough to actually play through the entire game? It's the only MGS game I've yet to play and I just can't die without doing so.
Yes you can! Iam in last act now and I guess there will be no more problems
I am not seeing all versions option on the patches how do i fix tes
when im trying to open the "manage Game the patches option", a window with "Some of your patches are not compatible with the current version of RPCS3's patch manager" appears and not all options are shown, even the "NPUB31633 All versions" dont shows up, do you have any idea of what happend?
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
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.
as soon as i load into gameplay my game immediately crashes any idea what the issue could be?
for whatever reason it won't let me past the tv show intro and just shows up as a blank white screen, any way to fix it?
Did you enable the libvdec codec?
