This is a small mod to remove the long (and what I consider annoying) timers from researching items and building Motherbase platforms. It does NOT affect multiplayer just the SP. NOTE: You may want to backup your save files (you should find a local copy of your save files under \Steam\userdata\[your user number]\287700 AND Steam\userdata\[your user number]\311340 - search for 287700 and 311340 if you can't find it and back up this folder somewhere) just in case. There have been no reported problems, but it never hurts to be safe. *311340 is actually Ground Zeroes, but for some reason Steam saves the backups here even if you never owned nor played Ground Zeroes. INSTALLATION ------------ To install this mod you need the latest version of the QAR tool found here: http://www.nexusmods.com/phantompain/mods/13/? Step 1 Use that tool to extract the 00.dat file in your metal gear directory under the 0 (zero) subfolder found here: \Steam\steamapps\common\MGS_TPP\master\0\00.dat To extract you just drag 00.dat onto the MSGV_QAR_Tool.exe file. Step 2 After that is extracted add my included files overwriting the originals. OPTIONAL STEP 3 IF you want to have no time limits on building Motherbase platforms (does not affect the FOB platforms) then using notepad++ add the following line to the 00.inf (this will add my optional MB settings file to your 00.dat): 18e2a707b8155b1d|00\Assets\tpp\motherbase\script\MbmCommonSetting20BaseResSec.lua key=0 version=0 compressed=0 Step 4 Repack the 00.dat file by dragging the 00.inf file onto the MSGV_QAR_Tool.exe file. Step 5 Launch game and profit! CREDITS ------- JRavens - mod author Sergeanur - QAR tools to pack and unpack MGS files.
