Hey, I bought the DLC outfits a while back. After I purchased them they worked just fine, however without noticing it, one day all my DLC outfits vanished... My sneaking suit is all bugged like crazy and I think it was an update for MGS:V that did it. Are the DLC outfits still working for everyone else? I am not sure how to fix it but this is really bugging me.
hmm, i love this retex! its all ive been using for a while. but that's because i can't install snakebite and this at the same time... uh... i'm not real savvy so i'm sure its possible.
Sorry to keep you waiting, I've revamped the mod with Snakebite installation, more color variations and scar removal! The updated mod can be found Here -> http://www.nexusmods.com/metalgearsolidvtpp/mods/306/?
Seems that after the last update all the mods are unable or unworked, needs an update to the mods to make them happend but i think there are no support anymore
Nice mod, but is there a way you can just upload the files for the Zipped version, or even a file list so I can not copy over those files? I have a different unzipped version I prefer and would like the be able to use them together. Thanks.
Can't you just install this one first, and then install the other one on top of it?
In any case, delete the d8c75b2c66d4.PFTXS file in the 00 folder, and in 01 delete both the .2. and .3. for 1baf5bc564092, 1d68c51a4f5b, and 3e3de5e92e3b. The remaining files are for the zipped version.
I've tried it without the .PFTXS files and with variations on each, and it does work, but the unzipped version I use blends with the one from this set and it ends up showing through at certain camera angles. I actually figured that out after I made this post, but continued to tinker with it, trying to fine tune it.
I appreciate you letting me know which files to dodge if needed, I might also look into creating my own colors and that'll come in handy!
Texture modding is surprisingly easy once you get the idea behind it. If you'd like, I could message you a tutorial I wrote up for someone else, it might help you understand the file structures better.
Actually, that'd be great! I'm mainly into texture mods so I can still go online with less Ban fear, but any help understanding the file layout would be handy if I get into serious modding. Thanks.
How do use this mod?..i can't figure it out..need a step by step guide..Never modded MGS V before. Please help. Also i can't find any download like to this QAR TOOL?
This is a link to version 1.3 of the QAR Tool. I don't know why, but it looks like it was pulled from the nexus or something. https://www.dropbox.com/s/0rtpumx2mxsjaby/MGSV_QAR_Tool.rar?dl=0
Extract the files and put them somewhere you can go to easily.
find your master folder for tpp in the steamapps. There's gonna be a folder titled "0". In there, you'll find the 00.dat and 01. dat files.
Alright, so you want to physically drag the two files, 00.dat and 01.dat onto the QAR Tool application. The command prompt will open up and start extracting your files into folders that you can open. There's also going to be setup files that get created, which comes into play later.
once you have both 00 and 01 folders, take this mod's download and merge the folders together, overwriting anything that pops up.
Once that's out of the way, take those setup files that I mentioned and drag them onto the QAR Tool, like you did with the .dat files. Again, command will open up and it'll start repacking your 00 and 01 folders.
The newly created 00.dat and 01.dat files need to replace the old ones. If you did it right, the mod's been properly installed.
I'm also getting the shimmering polygon bug where the outfit looks white when the camera is far enough away, and for some reason no amount of packing or unpacking with the QAR tool -or- Gzstool is working. :(
EDIT: Wow, after tinkering for another hour or so, I got it working! A clean reinstall/file validation didn't help, so I went back and looked at how the original mod maker did theirs, and I ended up, uh, popping open your d8-whatever thing, then the one from the 00.dat, copying the files from yours -over- to the 00.dat's, then repacking it, then doing it again for the other one. It's... super weird and I have no idea why it worked, but it -did-. Lovely suit you made! :D
EDIT EDIT: For anyone having the shimmering polygons issue: SnakeBite might be the culprit, since it moves everything from 00 into 01! Just a possibility!
I too had the shimmering polygon bug. I tried what you and Sykez said but it didnt help. So i just did the usual unpacking and packing with the QAR tool and it worked!...
It's worked for me earlier but now after online update its started to having that shimmering polygon issue its kinda changes when charter too far from cam and idk how to fix it please help D: The original looks sooo bad i cant look at that xd
I'm not 100% sure this will fix the problem, but try these steps:
- Do a fresh download of the file off of the nexus.
- open your 00.dat and 01.dat in the master\0\ folder with the GZsTool.
- Locate and open both of these PFTXS files with the GZsTool: 3538dd2f4ffd9 and d8c75b2c66d4
- Open the mod files for both 3538dd2f4ffd9 and d8c75b2c66d4 with the GZsTool
- Replace the files from the modded 3538dd2f4ffd9 and d8c75b2c66d4 folders into the game's 3538dd2f4ffd9 and d8c75b2c66d4 folders and repack them with the GZsTool.
- Now that those two have been repacked, go ahead and clean up the 00 folder and repack it too.
- For the 01 just merge it with the modded folder like usual.

Hope you like it!
P.S. Hey, the Boss' chest texture (the scar) is part of Paz texture, right? I might take a look at removing it.
I followed the steps you mentionned: "drag .dat files to QAR Tool > merge modded folders with 00 and 01 > drag inf. files to QAR Tool"
but each time I try to launch the game after that, the texture doesn't change at all...
Am I missing something ? Do I have to update the dictionnary ? If so, how do I do that ?
I hate modding... Is there a possibility that you make a .mgsv file (Snakebite) for dumbs like me ?
Thank you very much.
In any case, delete the d8c75b2c66d4.PFTXS file in the 00 folder, and in 01 delete both the .2. and .3. for 1baf5bc564092, 1d68c51a4f5b, and 3e3de5e92e3b. The remaining files are for the zipped version.
