So I downloaded the current game version that's been updated at the beginning of this Metal Gear thread, then download the most current version of spicetools and copied and pasted into the game's root folder, lastly I configured the "spiceconfig.exe" file and under the tab Metal Gear I assigned the d-pad, coin, start, and trigger buttons, and when I run "spice.exe" to start the game I get the small black window with the smaller red box error screen that's been posted on this thread numerous times.
Is there anything I'm missing? I read that an audio driver or headphone driver needs to be installed earlier in this thread, but that was from 2017 several years ago. Not sure if that's still an issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated...thank you.
