1.1 How to Make the Build Functional

.

Two ways were created to make this build functional because in the state the build is in, it would try to connect to a server that no longer exists.

.

1.1.1 Solution 1

.

Tutorial made by Anthony Fuller, Minnow, Notex, and Luiluix from the Hitman Modding Community

.

This solution may be more accessible to certain users.

• To select a level, delete or move the "isGameReleased" file to access the non-Steam launcher, then run GameLauncher.exe, go to the Configurations tab, tick "Toggle override configurations", and select a scene from the dropdown menu.

• To stop the game from trying to reconnect to the non-existent official servers every 60 seconds, open engine.ini and delete the lines "ForceSteamAuthentication=true" and "ConsoleCmd OnlineForceAutoReconnnect 0". Disabling "Show HTTP Calls" in this menu will additionally remove the yellow debug text covering part of the screen.

1.1.2 Solution 2

Download game.ui.dll Fix (info)

Tutorial made by devildwarf, Dusk the Crow and mero.

.

This solution may be a bit more difficult for certain users, however it is also a way to make the build functional. This was the first known public tutorial.

• For the build to work, replace "game.ui.dll" from this build with the fixed version (2nd download link).To select the level directly, edit engine.ini and replace "assembly:/_PRO/Scenes/Frontend/Boot.entity" for example with "assembly:/_PRO/Scenes/missions/coastaltown/mission01.entity".

  • Other options are:

    • "assembly:/_PRO/Scenes/missions/coastaltown/_scene_mission_copperhead.entity";

    • "assembly:/_PRO/Scenes/missions/coastaltown/_scene_mission_mamba.entity";

    • "assembly:/_PRO/Scenes/missions/coastaltown/_scene_mission_meerkat.entity";

    • "assembly:/_PRO/Scenes/missions/coastaltown/_scene_mission_viper.entity";

    • "assembly:/_PRO/Scenes/missions/paris/_scene_fashionshowhit_01.entity";

    • "assembly:/_PRO/Scenes/missions/paris/_scene_whiterussian_01.entity".
