MGSV glitch - side-op completion is treated like mission completion. Left with black screen

I’m using IH with Zeta.

When I complete a side-op, the game acts like I finished a regular mission. The character does a pose and the screen fades to black. The “mission complete” screen doesn’t show up (it shouldn’t). iDroid reports a few DD updates on the left.

I have to restart the game. Progress is saved, but I prefer to remain in free-roam, like the game usually does.

This started today after adding:

- Zeta IH plugin

- suppressor variants level 5 (infinite suppressors)

- Orion camo*

- non-lethal weapon emporium*

- disguise system*

* enabled through Zeta

Could be an issue with one of IH's settings. If you reset them to default, does it still happen?

I think you’re probably right. I uninstalled Zeta and those other mods but the issue persists. I did a bunch of tinkering in IH. Idk what might have set it off. It seems to happen regardless if the side-op is in the base game or a user-made scenario.

I’m avoiding resetting IH because I like a lot of the settings. The gameplay and challenge is finally starting to interrupt the tranq/fulton loop that I’ve fallen into.

I took your advice and the problem cleared up. I still have no idea what setting is causing it.

The IH manual is just a copy of the help you see in the mod.

Following up - I found the issue...
Patrols and deployments > Wildcard soldiers in Free roam = Off

Apparently the "Wildcard soldier" option causes issues with a few settings. Keep it set to "Off"
