TEKKEN 7 That Plays Like Legacy TEKKEN

TEKKEN 7 RETRO is an evolution of the TEKKEN 7 CLASSIC mod series; it further enhances the gameplay and balance of the original mods, giving you all a true classic TEKKEN experience.

These mod aims to recapture the soul of classic defense-first TEKKEN games, and make that style of gameplay playable on modern netcode connection via TEKKEN 7 on Steam.

The result is a TEKKEN game free of modern TEKKEN mechanics such as rage arts, homing moves, armor moves, guard breaks, and combo extenders. Additionally, many legacy mechanics have been reimagined and implemented in TEKKEN 7, such a backroll catches and launch-punishable get-up kicks.

CHANGES NEW TO RETRO:

  • All Screw Launches replaced with guaranteed follow-ups.
  • Generic Throws now require the correct break.
  • Rage Arts are removed.
  • All moves which spike downward in aerial combos now behave the same (no quick back roll)
  • Various balance adjustmentsVarious balance adjustments

CHANGES FROM T7CLASSIC:

  • Improved Sidestep
  • Launch Punishable Get-Up Kicks
  • No CH Launch or Clean Hits on Get-Up Kicks
  • Backroll Catch Okizeme System
  • Tracking on Moves and Strings completely overhauled, allowing for more freedom of movement
  • Mid Rage Drives are -9 on block; Low Rage Drives are -20 on block
  • Removal of Guard Breaks
  • Removal of Powercrush (All former unsafe powercrushes were made -9 on block)
  • Removal of Screw/Tailspin combo extenders
  • Removal of Homing Moves
  • Removal of "Pancake Flip" Okizeme
  • Removal of "Ballerina Spin" Hit Effect
  • "New Tactics" (Patch 5.00 Wall Crush) Reverted

HOW TO PLAY:

IF retro.exe CANNOT FIND YOUR TEKKEN 7 GAME, TRY RUNNING THE EXE AS ADMINISTRATOR

Run the retro.exe file in the TEKKEN 7 ULTIMATE EDITION folder. At the same time, run your TEKKEN 7 game. Once "Mod Loaded" appears at the top, retro.exe will automatically load the movesets in any gamemode (online play, practice mode) which you please, simple as that.

DO NOT PLAY RANKED/QUICK MATCH, OR AGAINST ANYONE NOT USING retro.exe. THIS WILL CAUSE A DE-SYNC ERROR.
