Butter's MGSV Permadeath (Reset to chapter 1)

I've become obsessed with permadeath gamemodes over the last year, and finally got fed up enough to come up with my own (very jank) way of adding it to a ton of games. The files include instructions and a python script that analyzes your monitor and searches for text. When it finds the mission fail text "E FROM CHECKPOINT" in this case, it closes your game and copies a 1% save file (Feel free to replace it with whatever starting point you desire) over your current save. This is probably not the best way to do this, but I don't have the technical skill to do it a different way, and this method is easy for me to modify to work with a ton of games!

Instructions:

Download python from the windows store (this saves you some jank later)

type into CMD:

python -m pip install pyautogui mss pillow pytesseract

https://pyautogui.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html

https://pypi.org/project/mss/

https://pypi.org/project/pillow/

https://pypi.org/project/pytesseract/

Copy TPP1%save folder into your C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\(your profile)\311340\remote

Open MGSVPermadeath.py with a text editor of some kind

Change YOURPROFILE to your steam profile numbers (check C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\) DONT LEAVE THE PARENTHASES

Open MGSVPermadeath.py

if it closes right away, right click and open with python 3. 1 or whatever version you have.

if you see "Script started. Permadeath ACTIVE" it is working

This script functions by looking for the mission fail text, so it takes a moment after you lose before it works.

If you fail the mission for ANY REASON the script will fire, so keep that in mind, AS WELL AS HAVING THE TEXT ON SCREEN! DON'T LEAVE THE FILE OPEN OVER YOUR MAIN MONITOR WHILE ITS RUNNING!
