The exe includes cheatengine and the cheat table all in one file. You just start it first and when you're in game press F1 to enable fixes, or F3 to disable fixes. The exe doesn't apply the fov fix though, because the value must be set manually in cheatengine and the exe has no way to input values.

The F1 and F3 keys should work in the regular cheatengine CT file version you're using now, but fov still must be enabled and set manually.

Either way you still have to start cheatengine or the standalone exe version before you start the game.


Ah thanks! Clicking two shortcuts (your exe and starting the game itself) is still more user-friendly than going trough the cheatengine thingy. Tried it just now and it works! Thanks for your work! Of to playing the game now!

Obviously, if you don'tneed to change the fov value ingame there is no good reason to start cheat engine and load the script while an exe can do the same more easily.
But, for some reasons, sometimes the script aspect ratio auto calculation may fail because of some exotics display resolution and thus the exe will fail the same.
This is where the script is useful for, leaving you the ability to change the X and Y aspect ratio to fix that.

Hey guys I just got my first ultrawide its the pg348q. I wanted to fix MGS V so I started reading this topic. First thing I tried was to apply Jackfuste's .exe file for 3440 x 1440 version 1.0.7.1 but when I launch the game it just crashes. Also i noticed that Jackfuste's exe is 78 MB and mine is 99 MB. After that I decided to try NIghtbits patcher and that worked for me. The game launched and I was able to choose my resolution. After that I opened the cheat engine file mgsvtpp_1.1.0.0+ and that fixed the markers and everything was working properly except for the sniper scope. It wouldn't fill the whole screen when zoomed in.

Is that normal or is there a way to fix the sniper scope as well? Also why doesn't Jackfuste's exe hack work with my game (steam)?

Also Thanks to all the people that got this game playable for me! Your patches, fixes and tutorials helped out big time!

Jackfuste's patch is for an older version (not updated anymore), the scope is what it is.

Hey guys is there anyway around using Cheatengine to fix the markers? Ever since I installed Cheat Engine my PC keeps detecting it as a trojan/malware, I have since removed it because I was getting pop ups when I started up my PC to upgrade Chromium.

You mean using Cheat Engine with the script provided ?
If so, I've never encountered any similar behavior. Using an exe made with CE probably, but the Cheat Engine app itself never.
I suggest you make an exception in your AV otherwise change it. Enough are available for free.

By script provided do you mean the MGS file? This is just an issue with CE itself. During installation it prompted me to install additional bloatware, which I declined, but somehow it proceeded to install Chromium and other suspicious software without me knowing. Windows Defender also detected all versions of the CE exe as a Trojan. I've used Malwarebytes which detected the Chromium bit and removed it but occasionally I was getting pop ups when I start up my PC even after removing it. I have since also used ADWCleaner which detected something with Chrome so I removed those (unsure if it's related to what CE installed) and also used Windows Defender to remove CE. I haven't had any pop-ups since "completely" removing CE but will monitor it going forward. I am very hesitant to reinstall it. I downloaded CE from the CE official website.

Ok bind777.
I got the previous version which, if i rember well , doesn't have that crap softwares included.
You can still download that version. Going to official website lead me to the download page where it's possible to have it.
It links to github where the 6.5.1 can be downloaded.
CE 6.5.1

Should you have any other problem with bloatwares included in that version provided you can get the source code and compile it if you have any programing knowledge.
Otherwise, i suggest you ask directly in CE forums for any compiled version without those craps.

There's nothing more i can do.

Thanks ChoGGi !

It seems like I can make the widescreen fix work, as well as the markers fix, sadly I can't make the FOV one work, and I tried almost everything.

Any idea ?

Never bothered with the FOV :)
You could try the last few pages see if anyone mentioned it?

I seem to be having issues getting the Marker Fixes to work. I'm on Version 1.10 and have tried the CT fix and the EXE fix.. The CT fix doesn't have any effect on my game and the EXE Fix (Where I need to press F1) crashes my game. Do I need to update to the latest version or is there a specific fix for versions 1.10?

TIA

What resolution are you using with the game?
Have you tried this fix?
http://www.wsgf.org/forums/viewtopic.ph ... 86#p168386

This is based on one of K4sh's marker fixes that I modified to include fixes for certain graphical effects at 21:9 resolutions.
It was made for version 1.10 of the singleplayer game, but still seems to work even on the current version 1.12
