I finally managed to make my own video walkthrough series on Hitman: Blood Money. I only have one right now, but it should be decent enough to allow people to see how I play.
A New Life

Minimal violence I like. Never liked the hitman games, stealth shouldn't be about killing and have a hard time playing as a hitman. And they are silly.

Nice, I didn't know you could do the level that way When I did that level on SA I think I used some semi-exploit where I first stole one of the catering crates when the catering guy saw it, so that I made the catering guy go after me around the corner and ask what I was doing. Since he followed me around the corner, I could comparatively safely sedate him and drop him in the hole in the ground near the exit, after taking his clothes, without anyone watching (if timed well to avoid the runner). Then I entered through the front door and did some sneaking to sedate the wife (difficult while she was moving, though) for her necklace, and sneaked to the computer room to kill the husband. I think I managed to get a guard suit or similar in the pool room in order to get to the top floor. I avoided killing the wife, but the timing was much more difficult and probably not so easy to pull off without the saves you get on the medium and low difficulties.

Cool video, never knew you could use lighter fluid to rig the bbq.

I started of like you did, by sedating the FBI agents in the van, but after that I carefully made my way to the tranquilizer darts in the house to the right of the van. I then used the airgun to sedate the dog, and entered the house (wearing an FBI suit) the same way you did. I then waited for the wife to finish swimming, and sedated her while see was trying to open the door leading to the house. Tricky business as a guard patrols the area, I had to drag her body into the sauna as soon as she hit the ground. Took me a couple of tries to get the timing right.
I then made my way to the room with the big plasma tv, and waited for the primary target to sit down and watch the match. I then fibre-wired him, apparently the guards didn't notice he was dead, as he was still sitting in his chair. Albeit with his head in an awkward position...

Finished by retrieving the suit, and earning the silent assassin rating.

What editing program do you use?

Reply
Kekvit Irae 23:54 11-11-2007
FRAPS to record the action, and Windows Movie Maker to edit it. I'm actually surprised at how good WMM is at editing. And since comes packaged with XP and Vista, another thumbs up for being free.

I think I just my purchase Hitman sometime soon. Looks like an...interesting game.

Download steam and purchase the Hitman series (Codename 47, Silent Assassin, and Blood Money) from there for a bundle price (29.99 USD). You'll never need a hardcopy of the games again if you do. Sadly, they do not have Hitman: Contracts in the bundle.

Ugh, Steam.

I'd rather look in a bargain bin.

Looks like fun though, wonder what Blood Money costs now.

edit: 22€ on Amazon...

I like how the FBI guy just picks up a strange box of donuts on the ground, takes them to his buddies and woofs them down. I know cops like donuts, but come on.

A Vintage Year is now up. Professional difficulty, but there's virtually no difference between that and how I normally play on Normal anyway.

Awesome. And I was just playing A New Life the other day.

I like to push the wife down the indoor pool instead of BBQ-ing though. It's funnier considering how the push really isn't that terribly harmful and the water's not even deep.

Also, I hate dogs, so I went into the tree house and sniped the damn canine with a real sniper rifle, silenced of course. It's also more accurate and doesn't attraction as much attention as the air rifle.

Question though, if anyone knows: If I put the air rifle into the weapon stash at the far east side of the map, do I get to use it in later missions? Also, how do I get past the annoying gardening lady in front of the tree house? Does it count as witness if I just shoot her in the back with the air rifle?

Yep, you do. It's only got three shots per mission though.

Dressing up as garbage man works well. The guy at the garbage truck is relatively easy to sedate or knock out, just keep an eye out for the other garbage dude and the jogger.

Nope, sedating doesn't impact your rating.

It works, but disposing of the body by dumping him in the garbage truck (killing him) should keep you from getting the SA level.

I simply dragged him out of sight next to the ICA box.

Can you save your progress in these later versions? Bro played one a couple of years ago and it just auto-saved at certain points. Being jumped back several minutes and kills back didn't appeal to my taste so I never touched it.

Saving depends on the difficulty level. Rookie allows unlimited saves, but you cannot save in Professional.

The screwed up thing is, even on Rookie your saves will not survive a simple restart mission command.

Yes. They're being that anal about it.

So it's like, I killed the Gubernatorial Mistake in that Christmas porn party mission, went to pick up the sausage, tried to throw the sausage to the dog -- and the game crashed! My saves are gone! I have to redo the whole damn mission and can't get the energy for it yet.

I too had issues in that mission, but updating the game helped.

I've seen it in the bargain bin for 10€ before. I wished I had picked it up then though.

I see. Thanks. I never bothered updating it (the list did say that the problem is an "extremely rare occurrence," and my internet was having problems...), but I think I'll have to do so now.

Much pleasure shall be gained making the Pr0n King drown in blood.

Ah, things change, have Steam now and bought Blood Money yesterday.
Yes, in a shop, said 10EUR on the package but they wanted only 8.99 at the cashpoint.
Pretty cheap compared to ~14EUR on Steam.
It's a fun game and your guides were of some help, Kek, though I'm a bit further now.

I recently caved in and installed Steam too, haven't bought anything off it yet though (Can you use Visa ? ). I really like the idea of being able to get all those older games at ~20€.

Glad I could be of some assistance. I probably won't make any more videos for H:BM, since Professional mode is really kicking my tail and the whole purpose of these videos was to give people an idea of what to do later on in the game when they are on their own. I'd rather not spoil games for people who want to play them by themselves by making walkthroughs of every level, but they are perfect for people who just want a little nudge in the right direction... specifically a little more spending money in the earlier stages to upgrade equipment and weapons.
