Introduction
Greetings, this is my first Hitman 3 mod, and I've decided to make this mod because I've always been bothered by Hitman 3's black levels, which didn't translate well into HDR. This seemed to be a conscious choice by IOI, despite questionable. So after being bothered by this after dozens of hours grinding in Freelancer on my OLED TV, I decided to take this task to my own hands and do something about it.
So here it is, my mod Black Levels Fix, what it does is edit the color grading of the game to allow the game to actually reach perfect black levels within the grading itself, and while at it improve the contrast for a better HDR experience, uncapping the brightness level that could also be limited by the grading. Not all levels required this edit, but most Hitman 3 levels did and some Hitman 1 and 2 received some slight changes.
It is designed to be as lightweight as possible and keeping the original artstyle as much as possible, editing only a few texture for the maps that suffered from this issue, so it remains mostly compatible with other mods that edit map files. Since the mod also doesn't edit map files, due to bloom/lens flares settings of each map, you might not be seeing perfect black always, however the contrast of the game should be greatly improved by default.
