If you have issues with Snakebite try the suggestions on the stickied post on the snakebite nexus posts.
For other issues, in general when asking for help you want to provide as much information, in as much detail as possible:
What your were doing leading up to the issue.
What you expected to happen.
What happened instead.
What version of IH you are using.
If it happened after updating IH, what was the previous version you were using that it worked on.
What mods you have installed.
And provide some files (saves and logs) so anyone trying to help has yet more information:
Your save game that's at the point it's having issues. The save files are in: <steam path>\userdata\<user id>\311340\remote (Default install path of steam is C:\Program Files\Steam)
Usually TPP_GAME_DATA alone is sufficient.
Some files from the MGS_TPP game folder Usually game folder is in Steam\SteamApps\common\MGS_TPP You can also open it (if snakebite is set up correctly) via SnakeBite > Mods > File Menu > Open Game directory.
The files: MGS_TPP\snakebite.xml MGS_TPP\ihhook_log.txt The entire MGS_TPP\mod folder (as this contains the ih_save as well as debug logs).
Whole SnakBite folder\Logs\ folder You can find this via SnakeBite > Mods > Open Debug Logs
If you need a place to upload mega.co.nz works well, as does dropbox. You can message me the link if you wish.
After you have done so there's a couple of things you can try:
Abort to ACC from title: At the title screen hold down the Escape key for a couple of seconds, the Fox logo will flash up breifly, upon selecting continue the game will load into ACC instead of the mission the save was on.
Clear IH settings completely: Exit the game and delete MGS_TPP\mod\saves\ih_save.lua
Resetting from scratch: 1: Pressing the 'Restore original game files' button in snakebites settings page. 2: Verifying game cache through the properties for the game in steam. 3: Delete the entire MGS_TPP\mod (you may want to copy off the ih_save.lua in MGs\mod\saves first) At this point MGSV will be considered unmodded, but verify by loading the game.
Re-rerun snakebite and go through it's steps. Again test to see if the game loads.
Install Infinite Heaven only. Test again to see if the issue still occurs.
If the game save is in-mission and not in ACC you may need to Abort to ACC from title (see above).
I'm having a problem where I used IH to bring Quiet back after mission 45, but she got badly injured in a side op and her option is now Xed out in the buddy menu. I assumed she would go to the sick bay but she's not there and as far as I can tell she's not in my staff management menu at all. Using the same option to bring quiet back in the IHH menu just gives me the message "Quiet has already returned." My guess is I could do mission 45 again to make her leave and then use IH to make her come back but I'm not sure if that would even work and also I hated that mission so I'm not sure I want to do it again.
Has anyone run into this and know how to solve it? How do I bring Quiet back after she's been injured in a side op after I've already used the IH feature to bring her back after mission 45?
For the few people I saw in these posts that had the same problem and for others wondering, I accidentally fixed the issue and got Quiet back by doing Mission 11 again. I only did it to get the rare bird that only spawns in that mission, but I took Quiet out with a sleep gas deployment from the helicopter support and when I ended the mission, I got the message that Quiet ended up in the Sickbay. It might be necessary to do this every time she gets hurt in the field, I'm not sure.
TLDR: Looking for guidance on how to resetting side ops.
Further information: I started using the Infinite Heaven mod as it is a recommended download for the Diamond Girls mod; in the description it mentions that it is possible to reset the side-ops. However, I have not been able to find how to do this, there is a walkthrough, but it is outdated on the Diamond Girls mod page. I have 100% the game and I am looking to add some further replay value to the game. I am specifically looking at how to reset the Diamond Girls side ops, but I appreciate help resetting any of the side ops.
Already Tried: I have already followed the guide on the DG mod page, but they do not work, or I am failing to understand. It does mention that you can simply uninstall the mod and save the game, but when I reinstall the side ops are all complete.
With this mod can you reduce the speed of Snake mobilty? I have upgraded mobility to +3 and it looks ridiculous. I want to downgrade the running animation back.
I'm having a very strange glitch occur. Ever since the last time I replayed the "Voices" mission, every time I return to Mother Base it plays that same ending cutscene where Snake gives the child Shabani's necklace. This has continued happening no matter what other missions I beat or what Mother Base cutcenes I try to force to occur in the Infinite Heaven menu. Even when completing missions like the White Mamba that have a Mother Base cutscene built into them, the cutscene in question is replaced with the Voices one. I'm at a total loss as to what I could have done to cause this glitch in the first place, and I just want my old cutscenes back, man.
Edit: After aborting to ACC with the escape key, it allowed me to get a different cutscene to play (after Cloaked in Silence), but now it's stuck exclusively playing that one
Edit 2: Nevermind, seems like uninstalling and reinstalling all my mods got it to work. Must have had a random conflict somewhere
One thing that makes me annoyed is that when I go to interrogate a guy with Tab + Num 6 + Right button (target) it makes me teleport to the marked area, has any way to reconfigure the IH shortcuts on the keyboard?
Does IH increase the deployment costs? I am having to pay over 100k each deployment even when going in barebones. Even using a mod to lower DC, it is still astronomically high for some reason. This wasn't an issue until after I downloaded IH and a few other mods, so I am hunting down the issue.
Summary: Issue of infinite load time when running IH
I reinstalled mgsv(version 1.15), after having it uninstalled since ~Jan 2024(I remember it was working then), revalidated my files, restored the original game files, verified the steam cache integrity, and installed IH(r261 - 2023-03-24), then did all the steps in the pinned troubleshooting post but it's stuck on an infinite load when trying to deploy anywhere. Goes away when I uninstall IH so I assume that's the culprit. The files and logs are uploaded to mega, linked here. --------> mega link <--------

Can i do it with infinite heaven? if yes, how?
you can reference your development tree to see what each hand level does
