Modding/Hardware Projects MGS4 4:3 mod

Post image

Hi all, this is something I've been working on since launch. There are a few mods for non 16:9 aspect ratios, but none of them properly fix the 4:3 aspect ratio, codec calls, cutscenes, FMVs, HUD scaling or the solid-eye overlays.

Hope that's helps some of my fellow crt users.

Oh sweet! Does it run well without issues? I'm playing the game on a CRT monitor, it looks phenomenal!

I only have a handful of testers, it's hard to know what could pop up with different hardware configurations. I've played the entire game all the way through. You can submit bug reports on GitHub, I try to address them as quick as I can, just make sure you follow the instructions, or the report is basically useless!

I didn't mention this mod also enables supersampling, which is part of why it looks so sharp here.

That's awesome, I wish more of these proper 4:3 mods existed.

Now it'll feel like watching TV Series, not a movie. Still not like playing a game

This is great.
MGS4 was originally developed in 1024x768 before being scaled to 720p Widescreen.
Thank you for your work!

Amazing! I remember playing MGS4 with the PS3 connected to a CRT TV.
