An upcoming native hook exploring modern positional and spatial audio for MGSV. The current work is focused on tracing the game's audio path and finding a clean interception point without replacing the existing sound asset pipeline.
A stripped-down vkBasalt-derived Vulkan implicit layer built for MGSV on Windows through DXVK. It injects SMAA into the present path, with optional RCAS sharpening and additional experimental post-processing, plus its own installer, diagnostics and final-frame capture.
Ongoing reliability and workflow work: FTEX header metadata preservation, texdiag DDS reporting, repaired FTEX repacking, automatic sibling gathering, multi-file and folder drops, PFTXS packaging, DDS mip/sidecar fixes, plus a replace-all packaging workflow.
A native x64 Windows Explorer thumbnail handler for MGSV .ftex textures. It reads sibling .ftexs mip data directly, supports common FOX texture formats, configurable mip selection and refresh tooling so extracted textures can be browsed visually without converting them first.
A Paint.NET DDS workflow for FOX / MGSV texture editing, with read and write support across modern BC1–BC7 and legacy DDS formats plus optional mip generation on save — keeping texture edits inside Paint.NET before they return to the FOX toolchain.
A major breakthrough: IHHook can resolve physical QAR entries, rebuild the target PFTXS in memory and overlay the re-encrypted slice as the archive streams. Runtime texture replacement without modifying the original .dat archive.
A released V Framework-based Quiet replacer for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, available now on Nexus Mods.
