Add CUSA18201 – USA : Hitman 3
—————————–

[CUSA18201] Hitman 3 Update 1.13 Offline Modded Fully Backported

Install The Base Game “CUSA18201_HITMAN_3_FXDv1.00_[FW750].pkg” Then Install This Update (No Fixes Required)

Credits to Fugazi for the Base and DLC!

Credits to the modding community on pc (Theonionsquid, Kercyx, Unfunnygoober, Jason, Kevin Rudd, Anthony Fuller, etc) for making those mods which i used to make this possible for the offline people. Special thanks to Masamune3210 for enduring the JSON: Battle of the Brackets and MASSIVE thanks to Anon, who decided to remain anonymous for the massive help, wouldnt have done this without it! Thanks also to my TRIFECTA bud Grief247allday for testing the VR part!

Notes: 5.05 / 6.72 / 7.02 Backport! Tested on 5.05! I think 7.50+ can use the 9.00 update (assuming they dont want the offline content mod), Offline modded backported is tested on 9.00!

Its been countless days of non stop working on this mod to make the game more enjoyable and unlocking 80% of the full game content, thats normally only accessible online, some of it not even accessible at all like the case of the sarajevo six which is an hitman 1 ps4 exclusive.

Im completely burned out from doing this now and i spent more than a week of my vacations on it, from things going wrong to simply stuff not working but in the end i was able to pull it. Those mods were converted from pc to ps4 by modifying the ps4 files and comparing them to the mod and do the changes, it was a lot of damn text in all those JSON files and i hate text.

I also had to learn scaleform and modify a script to make the scores work on the new update and not crash the game randomly. Normal unlocking for items and suits is not achieveable, at least i couldnt get it done so im including a completed save that will unlock most of the items for offline use since this is a sandbox game theres not much issues with that but if you havent experienced the game you have to play every video inside the mission as it wont trigger automatically since it was technically already completed.

Ive included the following content to the game:

– Elusive Targets
– Sniper Assassin
– Seasonal Missions
– Starting Locations Unlocked
– Mission Scoring
– VR on All Missions
– Sarajevo Six
– Escalations

The Escalations sadly dont work like the online way which progress alone, in the escalations menu you have every single one with every single level, its a laggy menu lol in the destinations you find each one packed and you need to use the sticks to choose the levels by yourself.

The Elusive targets menu takes a few seconds to load fully!

To use the save file via Apollo (Thanks Hannane Amine):

1 – Download Apollo Save Tool PKG and install it in your PS4.
2 – You need a USB stick formated in exfat.
3 – Connect your USB to PS4 and go to the Apollo Save Tool.
4 – Locate hdd saves, search for “Hitman 3 – Profile Data”.
5 – Copy the “Hitman 3 – Profile Data” and choose usb0 as destination (your connected usb).
6 – Go to your USB in PC and find the folder “\PS4\APOLLO\”.
7 – Replace “data.save” and “index.save” from the “xxxxxxxx_CUSA18201_LocalProfile” with the ones downloaded.
8 – Reconnect your USB and go to the Apollo Save Tool go to USB saves this time then copy your save to HDD , it will overwrite your old save.

This should give you mostly all weapons and suits in the game, with exception for some newer added ones from the time this save was done. Remember this will make cutscenes not popup when accessing the missions/targets, you need to check them in the video tile inside each mission if thats the case!

The brothers elusive target/mission is cut content and it would be really damn hard to port all the files needed from pc so its greyed out in the targets, too many models, textures, etc.

Remember even tho i tested this intensively, there still might happen some crashes as none of this content was meant to be accessible offline so its basically all custom made. Let me know if you find any persistant crash and where! Thanks! Use at your own risk!
