Please read what's on screen before shooting from the hip.
After the dinner scene / sex w/ M there's a warning screen / notification that the content after that is the old i.e. non-remastered lower quality one (episodes 3-5). After that episode 6 & 7 are again HQ like the reworked eps 1 & 2.
Yeah, there no way I can write this reply without sounding sarcastic and ungratefully but I feel the misunderstandings needs to be clarified in case others have my issue. Really didn't want to reply to this since I did ask for insight but you did misunderstood or misinterpreted what I wrote especailly when i refer to your opening line "Please read what's on screen before shooting from the hip" with you really need to follow your own advice about "reading". Clearly instills the sense of irony that suggests sarcasm and ungratefulness and not my intent.
It may not have been clear to you but luckily Crippy got it and gave a suggestion that worked out. *For Others with my issue see post #3175, page 159*
Now what I wrote earlier and tried to explain was I did load from a save "before" that warning you mentioned (well aware of it and I know episode 1 - 2 are remakes, 3- 5 old and 6 - 7 is supposed to be remakes as you have written "BUT" this load old savepoint attempt failed to produce the new content new episode 7 when was supposed to start at the end of episode 6). If you need to know the savepoint was not a choice screens it was a save at the start of the meal before the sex scene so well before the end of episode 2 and that warning screen.
Then my second attempt to fix the problem was to replay the whole game from start to find the extra content (as in episodes 1 - 6, this also failed to start episode 7 at the end of episode 6). The game never gave an episode 7 starter marker/screen for me.
These extra elaborations I didn't write because I assume it was self-explanatory or implied from what I wrote. The remake stuff stopped at end of episode 2, so episodes 3,4,5, and 6 (6, which as you point out are suppose to be new but not in my case) they were all "old/non-remake". And yes for further elaboration I did check the game was the episode7chp2 edition, in fact it extracts from the rar to a file named ShutUpAndDanceepisode7chpspecial-special-0.1-pc via mega download.
If my reference to Roadwulf comment about the new episode being short was the cause of the misunderstanding I was looking for an explanation there because the changelogs does state:
Ep.7 Ch.2
*393 still images
*18 animations, 52 videos
So how can this be a short episode? Where did I miss 393 stills images, 18 animations and 52 videos...... I just felt my nonexistent episode 7 is along the same track as his "short" sense of the 7th episode.
Anyway, appreciate your response hope that what I wrote did not come off as sarcastic or ungrateful, again not my intent but there is certainly some misunderstanding going on here. Put it this way my reply/further elaboration here is 4/5 times as long as my original so I do hope this clarifies all misunderstandings and interpretations. I could have written this extent elaboration first but why write something for over 4 paragraphs when it's possible and enough to do it shorter?
In fact, I still don't understand why Crippy advice works because all I did was delete the file completely and re-extracted it again from the same rar file as before. then copied and paste over the old saves. I am aware that if the rar file or extract game was corrupted in the first extracted game then it should not have been able to be fully extracted or able to be "playable" but that is what happened. Either way, Crippy advice worked, in short, a fix.
