Metal Gear Solid HD Collection Install

Recommended Posts

Extract the first DVD and put all the Content at your HD. The folder structure should be the following:
 
HDD1/Games/Metal Gear Solid HD/DVD1

And then you extract the stuff from the Second DVD an put it all to:

HDD1/Games/Metal Gear Solid HD/DVD2
 
After that, you restart your FSD/Aurora and Scan your Game path again. You should then run the game

But how do you install it so both discs run of a single cover without using Aurora to simply hide one of them in the 'no section', surely doing it using the method you described here would mean you would have 2 covers & 2 xex's that you would have to return to the dash to switch between if you wanted to play the content on disc 2 and vice versa.

The HD Collection are 3 games put on 2 discs, so logically you would get 2 items in your game-list, one for each disc. One will have MGS 2+3 HD and the other MGS: Peace Walker HD. Think of it as 2 separate games, one with 2 games in one.

And about 'swapping discs' in general, this will go automatically without any interaction from you. Aurora has the auto-swap feature on by default, provided you use the correct folder setup like Dr.Gonzo has given. But with this game there's no swapping needed anyway, because of the two different Title ID's, so no need to use DVD1 and DVD2, just choose whatever you want like "MGS 2+3 HD" and "MGS Peace Walker HD" for example. In short:

As extracted:

  • Disc 1 - Hdd:\ Games \ MGS 2+3 HD \
  • Disc 2 - Hdd:\ Games \ MGS Peace Walker HD \

As Games on Demand:

  • Disc 1 - Hdd:\ Content \ 0000000000000000 \ 4B4E0840 \ 00007000 \
  • Disc 2 - Hdd:\ Content \ 0000000000000000 \ 4B4E083C \ 00007000 \


And yes, you will have to return to the dash to play the other disc, as you would with other games.
