I'm new to this :/ Anyone have links to programs or tutorials?

I'm good on this now. I kept looking around after posting this. I found Sor3nt's video on how to use the Manhunt Toolkit, and I also found the MDL editor on this site. Thanks for offering to help.

Sor3nt's video for anyone else with this question:

I cannot figure out how to install this. I've followed the readme file and checked the Github upload. Can anyone provide basic-level instructions that I couldn't possibly mess up? Thanks :/

The beta executions mod is up on Mod DB as Manhunt 2 Extended Executions. It's not just firearms, though. It restores almost every beta execution, if that's what you're looking for.

Go to "files" under the title, then download the mod and update. The other downloads for camera angles and weapons placement aren't necessary.

Manhunt Toolkit and Manhunt Studio are your best tools for now. MHS is early in development.

The news clippings in the journalist's apartment look like real articles, but they're illegibly pixelated. Is anyone able to enhance them and make them readable?

In case anyone else was curious, I enhanced it enough to read some of the article titled "Box-Office Dry for Starkweather." The text was from some news article about a science olympiad in India. It looks like everything that's not clearly readable was pulled at random and is irrelevant to Manhunt.
