Can you elaborate on how to add this entry into cheat engine?

I clicked on 'Add Address Manually' and entered 307F1A2 into the address and then changed the 'Type' to Array of Bytes but the resultant value is 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.


that value was the offset from the base program address. (I think full address is 14307F1A2)
As example
<CheatEntry>
<ID>0</ID>
<Description>"No description"</Description>
<LastState Value="F3 0F 59 0D E0 0D FD FE" Activated="0" RealAddress="1430816D0"/>
<ShowAsHex>1</ShowAsHex>
<Color>80000008</Color>
<VariableType>Array of byte</VariableType>
<ByteLength>8</ByteLength>
<Address>mgsvtpp.exe+30816D0</Address>
</CheatEntry>

OK I see. I now get the value: F3 0F 59 0D EA 31 FD FE using your latest offset. Any ideas on what needs changing for 21:9?

Okay, I made a thing that helps me waiting for proper patches

The script attempts to determine your display resolution and patch mgsvtpp.exe automatically

So basically automates this process:
jackfuste wrote:
  • Calculate your aspect ratio
    For example:
    5985/1080 = 5.541666666666667
  • Convert it to hex value here - http://babbage.cs.qc.cuny.edu/IEEE-754/
    You get - 40 B1 55 55
    Now write bytes from right to left, so it will be 55 55 B1 40
  • Open mgsvtpp.exe in HEX-editor
  • Find value 39 8E E3 3F and change it to 55 55 B1 40
  • Save file
  • Play

EDIT: I seemed to fix the markers by doing the following:

Change the address of the first value to: mgsvtpp.exe+307F1A2
This results in the following value: F3 0F 59 0D EA 31 FD FE
Change this to: F3 0F 59 0D EE 31 FD FE

This seemed to fix the markers but I just noticed in the menu the completion text falls below the screen so this is obviously not fully correct.

EDIT2: I just realised the secondary issue above is fixed by applying the second code from jackfuste which still works fine. This adjusts the UI elements for your aspect ratio. In my case the value is 86.0003762516.

So yeah the markers are now fixable by editing the first two values in jackfuste's cheat engine profile.

mrkite I don't know how you figured out the new address but can you do the same for the other fixes? (sonar effect, wind in desert, and most importantly FOV)

I just need the FOV address and then I can play again. :)

Sorry for maybe a newbish question here. I am trying to fix my 5760x1080 and thought I would try your fix out to see if that worked for my res.
So I downloaded the NodeJS program and that gives me a cmd prompt window. Am I supposed to copy the app.js txt and put it into that program somehow? Should I put that program in my msgv directory? Or am I just getting this completely wrong?

Thanks, Vlad

I'm using hex edit on the game's exe for a 5:4 resolution (1280x1024) and it doesn't even work. What would the hex be to enter in? I'm putting in 00 00 a0 3f

addresses for v1.043:
marker position mgsvtpp.exe+307F1A2
marker size no change
sonar effect mgsvtpp.exe+35B5916
wind effect mgsvtpp.exe+34F491E

i'm not using FOV adjustment so I need to look into that more...

No.

You open command line, navigate to the folder where you have saved app.js. For example, if you put it in Downloads folder your process will be like this:

Code:
C:\Users\username>cd Downloads

C:\Users\username>node app.js
Trying to detect display resolution
I detected your display resolution: 2560x1080, is that okay? y/n
...


Side note: Do you use eyefinity /3d surround (or whatever it's called for nvidia)? I'm not sure if it will work correctly for multi-monitor configurations. I just don't have anything to test it on
