HITMAN 3 Soundtrack - Freelancer Mode Loading Screen (Leak) Salem 2022-07-28 | Original soundtrack by Niels Bye Nielsen.This is a mix of music files whose labels are related to "Evergreen", Freelancer's development codename. GUI SFX and target escaping music were left out on purpose as they weren't interesting to listen to.EDIT: Apparently the Ambrose Island patch removed a couple other Freelancer tracks that had been sitting in files for months now, in particular the loading screen to the safehouse itself, so that's unfortunate that I didn't bother getting a look at it before. I'll post a complete version when the mode is officially released.Timestamps:00:00 - Loading Screen (Mild)01:45 - Loading Screen (Hot)Timestamps labels are based on the original filenames and might not be accurate compared to the final version.

HITMAN Soundtrack - Landslide Concert Songs Salem 2021-01-19 | Compilation of the songs that play at the concert in the Landslide bonus mission. This includes instrumental and vocals only versions.The songs were split into shorter sections that I had to mix together to sound as close as possible to the in-game versions. If you listen closely you should be able to hear the transitions. A few of the original files have saturation, I didn't try to fix it. Vocals only versions can play in sync with the instrumentals if you want to fiddle with them.Also, you can hear music in the background of the vocals only song at 15:20. That's intended, the original game file had the issue.Timestamps:00:00 - Song 102:35 - Song 204:56 - Song 307:20 - Song 1 (Instrumental)09:56 - Song 2 (Instrumental)12:17 - Song 3 (Instrumental)14:41 - Song 1 (Vocals)17:17 - Song 2 (Vocals)19:37 - Song 3 (Vocals)

HITMAN Soundtrack - 2015 Closed Alpha Sound Collection Salem 2020-12-15 | All rights go to their respective owners.This is an unorganized collection of tracks and audio cues that could be found in the 2015 HITMAN Closed Alpha files. Most of them are unused placeholders.Some songs are copyrighted, in particular IOI used as placeholder several Hans Zimmer tracks from Inception's OST as well as Edith Piaf's "Non, je ne regrette rien" (which got changed to a sound-alike original song in the final version of Paris).The following songs had to be muted to avoid the video getting blocked worldwide:- Hans Zimmer - Mombasa (29:23 - 29:48)- Hans Zimmer - Half Remembered Dream (46:16 - 46:33)- Hans Zimmer - 528491 (47:26 - 47:36)- Hans Zimmer - We Built Our Own World (51:54 - 52:21)Concept art source: mood.artstation.com/projects/koAYn

There are several things to optimize (could have easily got a sub 3:30), but I'm first waiting for a RNG Modifier update to be able to spawn the prisoner's cell closer to the parking lot.
HITMAN 2 - Personal Contract: Agent Smiths Punishments: Epilogue - Poisoned Food Kill (SA) Salem 2019-10-25 | This is a silly contract I quickly put together, where you have to kill Smith in Hokkaido with consumed poison.Many players were surprised to see a featured contract where you had to kill him in a fall accident. And now that the Sieker had been released and provided an even easier method to get him up the freezer than before, I thought I could create a crazier contract.Be sure to watch the video as you will likely learn a few useful tricks, in particular the weapon report one.This method can also be applied to killing Smith in fire, falling objects, drowning accidents, etc. So have fun and be creative.Contract codes:PC: 1-10-7031109-83PS4: N/AXbox One: N/AUse this video as a walkthrough if you want to recreate the contract on consoles.
HITMAN 2 - Community Contract: Sawed-Off Surprise, SA Speedrun (1:18) Salem 2019-10-22 | No longer possible due to IOI removing the sawed-off Bartoli from the starting gun category in today's Halloween update.Strat is unreliable as SA depends on how guards respond to loud gunshots, and also because of dumb glitches. For example, when the mansion staff lady is panicking alone in that corridor, shoot her once and you keep SA, but miss one shot then kill her and you randomly lose SA despite there being no witnesses at all. That's also why that double kill on the last targets is required.Contract codes:PC: 1-03-5179224-52PS4: UnavailableXbox One: 3-03-4901368-80
HITMAN 2 - Community Contract: The Migration Infiltration, SA Speedrun (1:07) Salem 2019-10-03 | Not much to say about it, the strat was fairly obvious and straightforward.Contract codes:PC: 1-11-5271792-52PS4: 2-11-8740857-07Xbox One: 3-11-0595579-80
HITMAN 2 - Community Contract: Gone in 60 Seconds, SASO Speedrun (0:40) Salem 2019-10-03 | Honestly this is more a lucky glitch I ran into than a legit speedrun.I have no idea why the exclamation mark guard didn't compromise me and you can tell it by my unoptimized movement and route.Contract codes:PC: 1-16-7353368-52PS4: 2-16-5796694-07Xbox One: 3-16-4157850-80

HITMAN 2 - The Last Resort (Master) - Easy SA/SO/NKo Salem 2019-10-03 | Quick 2mn setup to get a free SASO in The Last Resort.Can be done with no equipment besides your pistol as there are emetic flowers near the trapdoor, and you can easily grab a keycard from the villa left side terrace where two tech crew people are barbecuing.
HITMAN 2 Soundtrack - Haven Island (Custom Mix) Salem 2019-09-28 | Original soundtrack by Niels Bye Nielsen.This is a mix of the music that plays in Haven Island (The Last Resort).

HITMAN Soundtrack - 2015 Closed Alpha Paris (Custom Mix) Salem 2019-07-21 | All rights go to their respective owners.This is a mix of the music that played in the 2015 HITMAN Closed Alpha and its Paris level (that eventually became Showstopper). It was eventually scrapped and reworked before release, giving us the current Paris soundtrack we all know.Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction00:26 - Stealth 1 (Attic/Basement)02:02 - Stealth 103:42 - Stealth 2 (Attic/Basement)05:17 - Stealth 206:59 - Frisked/Arrested08:43 - Combat + Hunted 113:18 - Combat + Hunted 216:33 - Secrets of the Palace (Prototype)18:11 - Mission Complete18:26 - Extraction23:27 - Novikov AppearsTimestamps may be incorrect or incomplete, feel free to correct them in the comments.I couldn't hear some of those tracks in-game, especially extraction themes since kill objectives do not seem to update, so some labels were invented based on similarities with the final soundtrack. I also couldn't find few parts in the files like suspicious theme and various audio cues, thus they weren't included.Overall despite having been scrapped, this soundtrack has a style that's very similar to the rest of Season 1 tracks, with pompous strings and brass. You can even notice that a couple tracks were only slightly reworked, and that the main theme/extraction theme leitmotif was already present.I've included footage of me testing gameplay mechanics from the alpha. There's a lot to discuss when you compare it to the final game or even HITMAN 2 (and Absolution).Video is choppy because as one could expect, the alpha isn't optimized at all in particular around crowds.
HITMAN 2 Soundtrack - New York Extra Tracks Salem 2019-07-12 | Those are the extra tracks that play in New York, some may be missing or heard in other levels. The names of most licensed songs can be found below.Timestamps:00:00 - Savalas' Gramophone01:57 - Radio Song 1 (Jordan Cross/The Class - Are We Stars)06:07 - Radio Song 2 (Marrakesh Radio Song)08:34 - Radio Song 3 (Bangkok Radio Song)09:51 - Radio Song 4 (Sapienza Church) (Original Song: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Ave Verum Corpus)12:40 - Noir Easter Egg (Freeform Training Level Track)Timestamps may be incorrect or incomplete, feel free to correct them in the comments.Only a single original song, all others besides the easter egg one even seem to be unused.That gramophone track is the same as the stealth track that plays in Athena Savalas' office, only with more grain and filters. It seamlessly overlaps the level music in-game so you won't even notice it most of the time. I could have included it in my custom mix but it sounded out of place, and I would have been out of material for the side tracks vid otherwise.
HITMAN 2 - Personal Contract: May The Bell Ring Twice - Sniper SA/SO/NKo Speedrun (0:46) Salem 2019-07-10 | I LIED HAHAHA, I probably lost half my subscribers due to the video spam - which was meant for IOI's featured contract official submission thread - but that was totally worth it!(To redeem myself I'll be uploading the bank side track later today.)But seriously, this is truly the last run on this contract this time. There's no waiting time in my new strat and I've reached my skill ceiling, so I won't be finding new routes or improving my execution anytime soon.I'm glad it all went full circle: I originally designed this mission to be a SO sniper challenge from Isabela Caruso's room, starting with roughly 3:30 times, then I optimized it to 2:21. But I assumed it unfortunately would be faster to ditch the sniper rifle entirely and instead run towards the targets individually. Started as a cook, and got 1:17 then 1:14 that way.Eventually it turned out that the best strat possible (I can think of) on this contract was the intended and most elegant solution all along: a sniper strat in suit only, and even no pacifications. Also panic manipulation which is sick. I wanted to get a 47s record, but I escape at 46.9s. Screw me!If you want to try this contract by yourself:PC: 1-03-4595068-83PS4: 2-03-4721712-94 (Credit to CHAOS_AGENT_45)XBox One: 3-03-4687023-32
HITMAN 2 - Personal Contract: May The Bell Ring Twice - SA Speedrun (1:14) Salem 2019-07-09 | Wow, put down your gun, this is my last run on this contract. I SWEAR! (Unless IOI decides to feature this contract.)Anyway this is exactly the same strat as the previous video. I was so ashamed of my NA aim that I decided to remake it, with proper EU aim this time. Also unlisted the other run so I have to suffer watching this again. Oh, and I upped the bitrate of my render so that it's not so blurry compared to the source file.I'll be uploading the Bank level side track very shortly - there's only one that isn't recycled from other maps - then start working on Season 1's missing tracks.That means side tracks, ambient tracks, special tracks, even stuff like Holiday Hoarders' bells or the Hokkaido ninja starting location. Stay tuned!- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Previous video description:Follow-up to yesterday's video. I've been grinding to get the first place in the leaderboards back and eventually came up with this strat.Disclaimer: it is a terrible one. The route the bodyguard takes to enter the mansion grounds seems totally random *(Addendum: it can be somewhat predictable depending from where you shoot at him)*, and shots require absurd precision. I got better at them in the end, but of course my successful run had to include shameful NA aim. Oh well, whatever. *(Addendum: Not anymore.)*You could easily improve this strat by putting the rubber duck in a closer spot or even better, shooting the guard in the head when he rushes past the open window. But no way I'm grinding for that perfect shot.If you manage to pull this off or find an even faster route, I'd be really curious to watch it.If you want to try this contract by yourself:PC: 1-03-4595068-83PS4: 2-03-4721712-94 (Credit to CHAOS_AGENT_45)XBox One: 3-03-4687023-32
HITMAN 2 - Personal Contract: May The Bell Ring Twice - Sniper SASO (2:21) Salem 2019-07-07 | This is the intended sniper strat for my Sapienza contract, "May The Bell Ring Twice". SA/SO/NoKO run is easy to get if you use this strat as a basis, as only the escape might be harder and even so, bullet distractions and panic exist. Otherwise timings are the same.You may be faster by just running to the targets but where is the fun in that? :PIf you want to try this contract by yourself:PC: 1-03-4595068-83PS4: 2-03-4721712-94 (Credit to CHAOS_AGENT_45)XBox One: 3-03-4687023-32Don't hesitate to send me your own runs!

HITMAN 2 - Escalation: The Chameleon Anonymity - Level 3 SA (1:07) Salem 2019-05-24 | Significantly faster run than the previous one, but it is extremely unreliable while the other works 100% of the time.I got half-spotted by a civilian (exclamation mark above his head) at the end when I shot the wall, but he didn't have enough time to tell a guard, compromise me and ruin SA. Also got lucky that the panel didn't fall on any non-target, I didn't intend to hit it.
HITMAN 2 - Escalation: The Chameleon Anonymity, Easy SA Strat Salem 2019-05-23 | New escalation in Mumbai released today, it's pretty straightforward yet enjoyable.With this fast SA method you only need the laundry starting location, a silenced pistol (without subsonic rounds, don't bring a Krugermeier) and a lethal poison syringe. It also is fairly reliable as workers panicked by the gunshots will always warn the same guard, and it works similarly on levels 2 and 1.It relies on the new SA rules introduced in April's patch: the last target finds the body of the first which ruins SA, but since he doesn't have time to tell anyone else, your rating reverts back to SA when you kill him.
[Former WR] [U163] Payday 2 - Diamond Heist, Speedrun Solo OD, 4:07 GT (Glitched) Salem 2019-05-19 | This is not a comeback (for now), I recorded this in October 2018.Run done on update 163 which corresponds to the day one release of Diamond Heist. Indeed the glitch I use in it was fixed literally the following day. Had been wanting to use it in a run for a while so here it finally is.Glitch explanation: the backwall in the vault area is considered as out of map/non-solid void for lootbags which causes them to instantly respawn at a predefined place when they hit it (like when you throw bags in water).Turns out this place is the little garden on the lower floor - formerly a helipad in PDTH - where you secure loot using a zipline in loud. And it happens to be also very close to the window cleaning platform where you secure loot in stealth (assuming you spawn in that part of the building), close enough to allow you to throw bags on it from the garden. So this glitch eventually saves you more than 1 minute of bag movement.Run and movement are unoptimized especially at the bag moving part. That's because I was using the RNG Modifier mod, which was later packed into our officially-endorsed speedrunning mod. As such it was one of my first tries with it installed, and I didn't bother to improve it.I have a previous sloppy 4:21 run done without the mod you can watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=KuM6f7u6VIM
HITMAN 2 Soundtrack - Mission Accomplished (Megamix - Base Game) Salem 2019-05-17 | Original soundtrack by Niels Bye Nielsen.As promised, here's a mix of all tracks that play after you complete all objectives in a mission.Timestamps (spoilers for the last mission):00:00 - Target Eliminated (Whittleton Creek)00:23 - Confronting the Constant 1 (Isle of Sgàil)02:00 - Confronting the Constant 2 (Isle of Sgàil)03:39 - Mission Accomplished (Hawke's Bay)05:40 - Near Exit (Hawke's Bay)07:33 - Extraction (Hawke's Bay)07:55 - Target Eliminated (Regular)08:07 - Mission Accomplished (Miami)10:02 - Near Exit (Miami)11:41 - Near Exit (Santa Fortuna)13:19 - Near Exit (Mumbai)14:58 - Near Exit (Whittleton Creek)16:37 - Near Exit (Isle of Sgàil)18:16 - Extraction (Regular)18:24 - Target Eliminated (Pre-Beta)18:33 - Mission Accomplished (Colombia Pre-Beta)20:28 - Near Exit (Colombia Pre-Beta)22:04 - Jingle (Colombia Pre-Beta)Timestamps may be incorrect or incomplete, feel free to correct them in the comments.Excluding Hawke's Bay which is very unique, I didn't include calm extraction themes for all locations (only Miami) since it's pretty much always the same with only one varying layer. Didn't want to make the video almost twice as long as it should be, but if you really want to hear those, I can publish an unregistered video - should have added them to my level mixes directly, my bad!Sniper Assassin isn't included either because it sounds too different from the other themes, you can listen to it at the end of its own vid. On the other hand, I added a cleaner version of the Colombia prototype music.

HITMAN 2 Soundtrack - Freeform Training (Remastered Combat Theme) Salem 2019-05-08 | Original soundtrack by Niels Bye Nielsen.Legacy Pack OSTs seem to have been ported pretty much unchanged to HITMAN 2, but for some reason, Freeform Training (and The Icon) specifically received a new combat theme variant. So here it is, not sure whether it plays in-game or not.Timestamps:00:00 - Combat01:17 - Hunted02:34 - CompromisedTimestamps may be incorrect or incomplete, feel free to correct them in the comments.
HITMAN 2 Soundtrack - Whittleton Creek (IOI Monthly Mix) Salem 2019-05-06 | Original soundtrack by Niels Bye Nielsen.Ripped directly from the end of IOI Monthly stream #2 (that's why sound quality may be poorer than usual). You can watch the entire stream here: twitch.tv/videos/418003314I don't know if it was made specifically for the stream or if it's going to be part of an official soundtrack release - hopefully the latter!
HITMAN 2 Soundtrack - Santa Fortuna/Hawkes Bay Unused Tracks Salem 2019-05-05 | Original soundtrack by Niels Bye Nielsen.This is a mix of unused tracks originally meant to play in Santa Fortuna (Three-Headed Serpent) and/or Hawke's Bay (Nightcall). It may include actually used parts.Timestamps:00:00 - Stealth - Variant 1 (SF)06:37 - Unknown/Being Spotted (SF)08:30 - Stealth - Variant 2 (SF)14:30 - Stealth - Variant 3 (HB)20:36 - Stealth - Variant 4 (HB)27:41 - Suspicious/Arrested (HB)29:58 - Ending (SF)Timestamps may be incorrect, incomplete or refer to actually used tracks, feel free to correct them in the comments.Follow-up to the previous video of Santa Fortuna's pre-beta OST: youtube.com/watch?v=Q5jcsLqZR9MSome parts from the pre-beta were scrapped, others were left unchanged and unused and a few made it into the game albeit slightly reworked.This mix focuses on the second category, as well as extra unused tracks that were added in the full release files. You may recognize prototype songs of what we actually got in-game, in particular Santa Fortuna's caves/temple music.They all originate from the chunk0 package which contains music files for Santa Fortuna and Hawke's Bay (as well as other stuff), so since I couldn't exactly know where each track came from, I decided to make a global video.Music parts that have labelling patterns similar to Santa Fortuna files are noted as SF in timestamps, those similar to Hawke's Bay's naming convention are noted as HB.
HITMAN 2 Soundtrack - Santa Fortuna (Custom Mix) Salem 2019-03-14 | Original soundtrack by Niels Bye Nielsen.This is a mix of the music that plays in Santa Fortuna (Three-Headed Serpent).

I almost feel sorry for the time it took.On the other hand, this is also my most comprehensive rendition so far, featuring more jingles than usual (like the alternative starting location one) as well as full versions of the combat theme and more importantly of the mission story tune, which lacked many layers in my other videos.Those will eventually get a standalone version at a later date by the way, with all their location variants.

HITMAN 2 Soundtrack - Mumbai (Custom Mix) Salem 2019-01-12 | Original soundtrack by Niels Bye Nielsen.This is a mix of the music that plays in Mumbai (Chasing a Ghost). It may be not faithful to the original and include unused parts.Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction01:42 - The Marketplace07:05 - Rangan Tower (Dawood Rangan)14:21 - The Trainyard (Vanya Shah)21:36 - Suspicious/Arrested24:25 - Combat + Hunted28:01 - Streets of the Slums33:01 - The Crows' Hideout (Wazir Kale/The Maelstrom)39:41 - Following Mission Story41:13 - ExtractionTimestamps may be incorrect or incomplete, feel free to correct them in the comments.There were a ton of files, so it was somewhat challenging to mix them all into a decent track compared to other locations. And Colombia is going to be even worse in that regard. Some parts felt unfamiliar thus I put them in the "Marketplace" and "Streets of the Slums" sections, there might need to be additional labels/timestamps in there.By the way Mumbai's music is the most location fitting and diverse soundtrack in the entire game I'd say.

HITMAN 2 Soundtrack - Whittleton Creek Unused Tracks Salem 2018-12-27 | Original soundtrack by Niels Bye Nielsen.This is a mix of unused tracks supposed to play in Whittleton Creek (Another Life). It may include actually used parts.Timestamps:00:00 - Stealth02:07 - Trespassing04:07 - Illegal Activity06:22 - DangerTimestamps may be incorrect, incomplete or refer to actually used tracks, feel free to correct them in the comments.Found these among Whittleton Creek files, I thought they had an 80s vibe hence the thumbnail.I think "Danger" may actually be used somewhere but it fits the mix better here than in the regular Whittleton Creek soundtrack anyway.
