Changelogs
Version v1.0
initial release
Version 1.1
Encoded cutscenes with h264, removing the need for h265 decoding. File size differences between h264 and h265 are way smaller than I expected them to be, probably because the original videos are not very high quality to begin with. The high FPS fix caps the game at 60fps during loading screens to prevent a bug that causes the GI to not load correctly. This 60fps cap also affects the main menu and unfortunately a few of the pre-rendered cutscenes. v1.1 includes 60fps versions of the affected cutscenes instead of 120fps. Encoding settings are otherwise still the same, so you should not notice any difference between 1.0 and 1.1

UPDATE The Pre-rendered cutscenes are now available in 4K60fps: https://www.nexusmods.com/nierreplicant/mods/44 Download the cutscenes from the link above, instead of this page; I assisted in releasing the 4K versions as well. I still strongly recommend using Special K for this game, regardless which cutscenes you use.
Installation
Locate the "movie" folder in the games directory. Most users will find it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139\data\movie
Make a copy of the "movie" folder in case you want to revert back to the vanilla cutscenes.
Replace the files inside the "movie" folder with the ones you extracted from the download.
Notes
Your PC must support HEVC/h265 decoding; most modern GPUs are capable of this. v1.1 uses h264 instead of h265
It's highly recommended to install Special K, as it enables the game to be played properly at high framerates, improves performance and improves framerate consistency. A guide can be found here: https://wiki.special-k.info/SpecialK/Custom/Replicant
Works with both English and Japanese, as the audio is stored separately.
Also works if you're running the game at just 60fps.
Miscellaneous
Interpolation was done with Flowframes 1.29.0 using RIFE 3.1
