So, this Topic is kind of a returning Topic from the Old Hitman Forum, which I concept I bring over now, with a bit more of a vision.
So, what’s it about?
Well, like the title might suggest, it is about a possible modded Campaign. Already in Hitman 2, we had quite some intresting Mods like @KevinRudd’s Choose Your Adventure Mods or my Elusive Target Mods (Shameless Self Promotion, Ha). To get to the Point though, there never was a an actual Campaign behind it. What I’m thinking about now, well just that. At first though, I’d like to get some Feedback of you, of what you would like to see the most.
So, if you, who’s reading that, could spare a few Minutes to go through the following Poll, it’d be a great help.

Thank You for your Time.
Lastly I’m just going to tag some folks: @HMBM47@musicalmushr00m@Notex@Atampy26 @EveryoneElseWhosIntrested.IJustTaggedTheFolksWhoIKnewFromMyModdingExperience
I’m just starting to learn about Hitman modding, and I can’t install H2 right now to check out yours or KR’s mods. But from what I can gather in descriptions and youtube videos, these are essentially like contracts, but with expanded parameters, right? Such as: not having targets identified in red like in ETs, and the ability to add objectives like retrieving an object. I’m guessing targets can only be NPCs that already exist on the map?
If that’s the case, I’d be more inclined to play shorter, standalone contracts or variations on existing missions. Having to use NPCs already in the levels would be too constrictive of story-telling to hold my attention for a multi-mission campaign. But I’m very much interested in doing contracts that go beyond the limits IOI has built in to them, and add more creative objectives like we see in Escalations.
If I’m mischaracterizing your mods or Hitman modding in general please let me know. I’ve done lots of modding on GTA V and would love to become more familiar with what the current range of possibilities is with H3.
Well, not really. It is already possible right now to do lots of Things than just kill this NPC, like pick up this, trespass, get into Combat etc.
As of right now, that’s the case, Yeah.
My ET Mods have a few Retrieve Objectives, which isen’t possible in Contracts Mode, so aside from that and what you already mentioned, it’s true and will problably also not change in the Future, except for a Model Replacement of my ET NPCs maybe.
Well, it’s defenitly alot more than just Contracts. Aside from all the added possible things and Model Replacement, changing the Lighting of a Map is also in development right now, if very crash heavy. (Hence my Disclaimer above.)
After leaving this Polls sit for a while, I think it’s time to announce the results.
The Modded Campaign will have 6 Missions in Locations of three Games (Most likely in 2:2:2 ratio), the Mission will be the Main Focus, the Objectives will vary and the most important will be NPC Model Changes, so regarding the most recent development of the Hitman Modding Scene, i’m confident that atleast One Lighting Change will also be in Place.
Regarding the Story, the most voted Option (besides Allan who needs to add details) was 47 going after a Group of Terrorists.
I’ll now create Polls in the Header regarding the Locations of the Campaign and the five most voted Locations, also respecting all three Games, will appear within then Campaign.
