Eidos
has released a patch for Hitman Contracts that
addresses several technical issues and brings
the game up to version 174. Fixes include: Fixed
crash on ATI Radeon 8500, 9000 and 9200 on startup.
Fixed crash when Restarting Asylum Aftermath level
numerous times. Fixed crash when user got shot
after reviving HM from slow-mo death sequence.
Fixed crash while watching the free agent cut
scene on the Lee Hong Assassination level. Fixed
crash when user saved whilst highlighting an action
(such as Pick lock, jump balcony, Change Clothes,
Place sign etc) Fixed Crash with Post-Filter on
High: After death sequence inside the manor on
Beldingford Manor level, or inside meat plant
on Meat King level.
Graphic
fixes include: During and after "free agent" cut
scene on Lee Hong Assassination level screen would
turn black. With Post-Filter set to High, would
cause screen to go almost jet-black on "Hunter
and the Hunted" level when user by rooftop location.
Post Filter set to High made sniper scope blurry.
Other
fixes include: Unable to fire sniper rifle if
'fire' is set to Right Mouse button. 47 could
get stuck in the first door on Asylum aftermath
level. Loading a save game transported 47 to a
different location on Lee Hong level. Credits
do not appear at end of game.
