HITMAN 2 - PACKAGE DEFINITION PATCHER
This tool automatically updates the packagedefinition.txt encrypted file to use extra mods patches in HITMAN 2.
The packagedefinition.txt encrypted file tells how many patches the base game and DLCs should be recognised when playing. Patchlevel settings are usually set to a low value, but in order to play with mods, these settings must be higher to allow the game to recognise extra mods patches provided by the community.
This tool makes a copy of the original packagedefinition.txt file and sets all patchlevel values to 10000.
Package Definition Patcher is intended to work through the game updates without having to re-download it each time, unless if a future game update introduces a breaking change.
REQUIREMENTS
if you're running this game on Linux, you can use this online editor, drag or drop your packagedefinition.txt file and click on "Set Patch Levels", then save this file into Hitman 2's Runtime folder.
INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT :
UNINSTALL
