Metal Gear Solid is a stealth-action videogame from Konami that first launched on the PS1 in 1998. It's the first game in the Metal Gear Solid series and is a sequel to Kojima's early MSX2 computer games Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake. It was well received by critics and was heralded by many as one of the most important games of all time.
System Requirements
Issues and Fixes
Graphics issues with Nvidia/ATI cards:
- Download this .rar file (Metal Gear Solid v1.0 [ENGLISH] No-CD/WinXP+Vista+ GeForce+ATi Fixed EXE v1.01).
- Once downloaded, extract the contents into the install directory of the game and overwrite any files.
X:\Program Files\Metal Gear Solid
"Software rendering mode" error.
- Go into the game directory.
X:\Program Files\Metal Gear Solid
- Right click MGSI.exe and choose "Properties".
- Go to the "Compatibility" tab and check "Run in compatibility mode for: Windows 98/Windows Me" and check "Run this program as and administrator."
- After that you'll have to run it in windowed mode. To do this, go to the Start menu and pick "Run...". Add " -w" at the end of the executable path (C:\Program Files\Metal Gear Solid\MGSI.exe -w). The game should run allowing you to either go to the options and select 'software rendering' (to play in full-screen) or continue to play the game in windowed mode.
Unresolved Issues
- Real-life footage shown in the game during certain cutscenes are replaced with a green rectangle.
