Livesplit Setup
For Emulator and PC the community has made tools available to both have autosplitter and variable viewer available. In this video you can learn step by step how to set up Livesplit, Variable Viewer, MGS Autosplitter and more
Tools
- MGS1 PC Launcher (No Extras): This launcher features a TON of quality of life features such as an autosizer for Windowed mode, automatic Core Affinity, save manger and much more.
- MGS1 PC Launcher (With Extras): Includes everything above plus fixed music and boot logo.
- Autosplitter for PC: Link to GitHub with information and download. New and improved Autosplitter. Included ASL VAR variables, pre-made splits and more.
- DS4Windows Profile: This gives you full 8-way D-Pad movement and 8-way Analog. Configured for the entire touchpad to be your start (ESC/skip codecs, etc.) button. Also, weapon is bound to the CTRL key, so you don't have to fight Mantis with keyboard at all! Square is just emulating the CTRL (fire key). Can be used wired or wireless. The only quirk is when mapping the buttons, L2 and R2 are switched. So map Inventory Items to R2, Inventory Weapons to L2 and it'll work as swapped on the controller itself.
- Liquid Infinite Metronome: Three minute long metronome for doing Liquid Infinite “use the high hats in between to time releasing second tap, it will help with rhythm.” Created by Schnapples.
- Single Punch Infinite Metronome at 160 BPM: Tap speed doesn't need to exactly match 160 Beats Per Minute (4/4), can be lower or higher. 160 was the tap speed I had during testing. Created by Plywood.
