1. On your library view, right click killer7 and left click on "Properties"
2. Click Betas
3. Select the available preview
4. Download that version.

Alternatively, download the update, and deselect "Remastered Videos" on the launcher.



Then, follow the steps on the following guide to erate the upscaled textures, or keep reading the rest of the guide.

Done. Enjoy the game.

If you wanna be double safe, you can still follow the steps to keep a backup of the old version.

I do want to bring up attention to two different guides that might be of interest if you want the new QOL fixes.

Jesus "Ezekiel" Jesus has made a better guide that aims to keep the new fixes while undoing the bad upscales. You can follow his guide to know what files to take out.

(29♂)Mona ..DUSMANULdinSANITAR made a cutscene restoration mod if you'd like higher quality cutscenes. You can follow his guide to install them. https://ad.gamersky.info/@steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3355801080

I am keeping this guide up for now since this might be a fix down the line if NIS isn't too kind to us.

Oh cool an update to killer7? Bugfixes? The original movie files? Upscaling? Count me in!

Yeah about that.

Let's skip the BS. The AI upscale they did blows, and we don't want that. I appreciate the bugfixes and that they even tried to do something, but this isn't ok.

Get the old files by going to the Steam console (open your browser and paste steam://nav/console) and then paste the following code :

This will download the original version on your content folder at Steamapps (you'll get a notification when it's done of where the files are located exactly).

Alternatively, here is a Google Drive[drive.google.com] link and Gofile[gofile.io] alternative. Nexus mods doesn't have a page for us lol.

1. On your library view, right click killer7 and left click on "Properties"
2. Click Browse Local files
3. Extract everything from the mod somewhere.
4. First, delete everything within the MOVIES and REPLACEMENT folder.
5. Now, copy the respective folders from the download into the killer7 folder.
6. Finally, replace the exe and launcher. Sadly, the new executable is not compatible with the old video formats, and will crash the game upon playing.

Note - The files in replacement folder are optional. You can play just fine without them if you choose. I am only including them since they were part of the old version that released. It was completely fine, mostly textures that were more faithfully remade, as well as HD fonts for things like t-shirts Travis wears.

So, for a more authentic visual experience, you can simply choose to leave it empty. Otherwise, just copy the old replacement files.

Enjoy killer7 and let's hope NIS makes the upscale optional sometime later!
