Setting up Killer7 for modding¶

“There's always time for fun. It's Friday night.”
“Let's dance.”

Before you can install mods, the game needs to be set up for mods first. There are two ways of doing so.

Automatic Script (Recommended)¶

Using an automatic script called IwazuScript is the easiest way of setting up the game for modding.

You can download it from here:
Download IwazuScript

Instructions¶

1. Download the archive
2. Open Killer7's directory
   1. Right click on Killer7 in your Steam Library
   2. Go to "Manage"
   3. Click on "Browse local files"
      

On Windows¶

3. Extract "IwazuScript.bat" from the archive into Killer7's directory
   • Make sure that files "Killer7Win.exe" and "data.vfs" are in the same directory as the script!
4. Run the script

On Linux¶

3. Extract "IwazuScript.sh" from the archive into Killer7's directory
   • Make sure that files "Killer7Win.exe" and "data.vfs" are in the same directory as the script!
4. Open a terminal in Killer7's directory (or cd into it)
5. Make the script executable:
   • chmod +x ./IwazuScript.sh
6. Run the script in the terminal:
   • ./IwazuScript.sh
