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
Lets you toggle the entire HUD on and off ingame with the tab key.
