Features one of the worst sniper mechanics I've ever experienced in a game. You will simply instantly die without notice if you are in sniper range and commit a crime. Please read carefully before installing or playing this mission, you will literally instantly fail with no counterplay, even if the sniper npc is not facing anywhere near you.
This is one of those terrible game mechanics where you can only counter it by literally reading what it does beforehand. It's unintuitive and the only attempt to communicate it to the player is to have the sniper show up in the top left of the screen. He does not need to be looking at you, or even have any angle to shoot you. I was behind a set of metal stairs, he was facing 90 degrees in the opposite direction. Instant death. Just be aware of this before you bother playing this mission.
Thought about it, but right now it hijacks a lot of New York security stuff, only reason you don't notice is because NY is incapable of reading the Chongqing chunk; so it would have to be completely re-done to work in chunk0 and be used in all maps.
Then there's the question of which variation should be the suit? Suit jacket police? Short Sleeve? Long Sleeve? Poncho? Mask?
I'm curious, now with Hitman 3 seemingly officially at the end of its content releases do you plan on adding other new bonus missions for other maps? This mod is super high quality like other alternate missions from hitman 1/2, so Im curious if you had any other plans going forward.
So, you say to run it in Offline mode, what happens when you run it in online mode? Will you just not see the contract? Will it still spawn as a variation if I have FreelancerVariations on and I'm online?
Thanks!
EDIT: Never mind, I've just read that the other mod has it inbuilt.
Hi, so I'm really eager to play this but I unfortunately cannot. So I have the latest version and SMF it is detecting the content, but upon applying it nothing shows up in game? I saw a suggestion that if I delete my Cache folder and try again it should work but alas nothing happened any differently. Everything is up to date but I cant seem to get it to show up in game. I have attempted in Offline/ peacock. Any suggestions would be much appreciated :)
So I attempted disabling all other framework mods and applying only Noodle Massacre. I then loaded the game up in Peacock and still a no show. The Patch300 file also doesn't exist in my Runtime folder. I can tell this is a strange one haha :)
Are you using the Mod Manager or just hitting deploy.exe Because if you're doing the latter, it's likely giving you an error but then disappearing before you can read it
Yeah so I have tried both versions of the map (Old music/ new music). I have tried both Deploy and SMF. It still isnt showing up with a Patch300 or in game. It is a bit bizarre as I do in-fact see the Noodle massacre files during the Deploy phase. I appreciate your responses but just seems like it might just be my PC
So turns out now it works somehow. By complete chance my internet has been down and I have played the map a few times now. I really like the music, new time of day, and the character models combined with the routines etc. I also appreciate how you emptied out the one building and put squatters (homeless people) in there l. I think the main issue I've had is getting it to work with peacock, bu alas. Very good work!

May I ask where the new music tracks are from? I tried looking it up, but couldn't find it - would love to listen to it while working!
Edit: nvm, I think I found it in the meantime! (assuming it's from the Mumbai level)
