MGS1 - Video Issue. Programmers needed.
« on: 2012-08-27 21:05:04 »
I have spent time with kranmer looking at MGS1 and the problem it has displaying videos (doesn't display the video, only audio).  At first we thought it was an OS compatibility issue, and whilst that is still possible (at least in part), the main issue seems to be graphic card driver related.

When Kranmer uses custom graphic drivers supplied by https://www.virtualbox.org

the game then displays videos properly.   Virtualbox works with your current OS CD and the files on it.  We have tried everything we can think of, but it is a no go without someone who understands assembly a lot more than we do...  Because a fix to the code is likely needed.

Hopefully someone around here is up to the challenge.  8)  though I don't expect this to ever be tackled :(
