Essential improvements
Skip intro videos
Extract and overwrite the content of this archive in your game folder
|
- The game contains 7GB of pre-rendered cutscenes. Besides menu_main in "ui", you can delete them - at least whole "in_level" folder, and probably also "loading" folder without replacing the files to dummy file (like above). In result - the game will show an error, then disappear from taskbar, but when you press Alt+Tab you can return to loading.

Issues fixed
No sound
- Was reported at launch. It is not known if this issue still occurs after many updates to Windows, drivers and the game itself over the years.
Disable surround sound on audio drivers[9]
|
Game doesn't show up in Windows 8.1
- In Windows 8.1, sometimes the game will appear to start minimized, and any attempts at restoring the game will not work.
Disable Exclusive Fullscreen[citation needed]
|
DX 11 Crashes on Nvidia GeForce 500 and 600 series
Increase Vcore to the GPU slightly or Drop the GPU Clocks[citation needed]
|
- It seems Nvidia have set the default Vcore too low on the 5xx/6xx series cards. They do pass stress testing but crash in a few Real World DX11 intensive games.
|
Crash to desktop when using MSI Afterburner's On Screen Display
Config file edit
|
- Open the MSI On-Screen Display Server program (RivaTuner Statistics Server).
- Click the plus sign (or newly "add" button) and navigate to where you installed Hitman: Absolution and add HMA.exe
- Once you have that added go to
C:\Program Files (x86)\RivaTuner Statistics Server\Profiles
- Edit
HMA.exe.cfg
- Change
EnableDynamicOffsetDetection=0 to EnableDynamicOffsetDetection=1
- Change
HookDirectDraw=0 to HookDirectDraw=1
|
Mods
