Metal Gear Solid New Issue

xifakex · December 17th, 2009, 02:08

I have an issue with MGS. It seems to be new, and I haven't seen it happen with anyone else. I've been looking around and troubleshooting. I can get the game to run perfect with the proper settings, at least for a little. It happened to me long ago and I just gave up out of frustration. Never looked for help. But now I'm looking to play again, and I'm even doing it on a different emulator (PSXeven 0.19) and I'm still having the same issue.

So, here's the issue:

At first, I was using ePSXe 1.60, and I found that in order to get it to run, I had to use Petes softdriver 1.16. After that, everything was running perfectly. Seeing as I'm a cheater, I of course used PEC to load some cheats. About 10 or so. I got to the point where you went through the tank door that needs the lvl 5 clearance. You get in there when you contact meryl by codec. Well, anyways, I went in and I tripped the alarm and all of a sudden the sound glitched and cut out. Then there was no sound at all. I reloaded the save state I made and no sound. Did it again, no sound, so I tried to continue anyways and nothing would load. So I reset emulator and tried again, loaded the save state, and same problem. I didn't understand, so I quit. 7 months later, and a new emulator, and I started the game. I was at the point where I was waiting for the elevator to come down, and I shot one of the gaurds with a FAMAS or whatever, and the sound glitched. i reloaded the save state cuz I save very frequent, and the same thing happened again. That glitch, and when I went by the elevator, the codec rang, I brought it up, no talking. Nothing. This is starting to get on my nerves, and somehow this glitch can effect the save state that happens before the glitch even occurs! I can't play a game this long with this glitch there. It will screw up my whole game.

Any idea of what to do?

Edit: After some more searching, I think I found a fix for it. I used hushypushy's settings for PSXeven. (Somehow I missed it my first run through of the forums. >.>) Anyways, the only problem I have now is the game crashing for pre-rendered videos, but I also just found the fix to that. See here. Page 1 for settings, page 2 for crash fix. Well, I guess that solves that, although I'm sad because I was getting decent graphics and awesome sound from my settings previously. Oh well I guess. :/

PROBLEM SOLVED! lol.
