I'm not completely sure, but I think the differences you speak of could well be related to console differences. (e.g. PS2 or PC) The PC game did have a few plot changes, especially in later versions, such as the the alteration of a specific level to change the implied killing of sihks in a temple.

[edit] Somebody help me please!!!

In Hitman: Codename 47 directory I've found a file named "resources.xml" (C:\Hitman - Codename 47\Setup\Locale\language-English.zip). There are all the game dialogues, mission briefings and all the game's text. In that file, I've found some really weird sentences, that aren't involved in the game, or I couldn't find them anywhere in the game... They are:

  • (Possibly in "The Setup" mission) "Freeze - let me see some ID! Real slow now!"
  • (Possibly in "The Setup" mission) "Hey - you there. Stand still! Who are you?"
  • (Possibly in "The Setup" mission) "Stop! Police - identify yourself!"
  • (Possibly in "The Setup" mission) "Tango 6 - 3 Delta - 1 Yankee. Proceed with caution. Suspect is armed and dangerous!" (maybe a talk between SWAT members)
  • (Possibly in "Meet Your Brother" mission) "You - along with your brothers - are my true children. Now rid me of that rambunctious renegade!" (maybe a talk between Ort. Meyer and Mr. 48 clones)

There are many other sentences too, but I'm most worried about these mission descriptions in laptop:

  • (Possibly at the end of the game) "Your mission is over. Surrender your self to the police and await further instructions. We will contact you. Diana"
  • (Possibly at the end of the game) "ABORT - ABORT - ABORT RETURN TO BASE IMPENDING DANGER THE AGENCY WILL DISAVOW YOU RETURN IMMEDIATELY"
  • (Possibly at the end of the game) "ABORT - ABORT - ABORT SEVERE DANGER DO NOT ATTEMPT FURTHER ADVANCES THIS IS AN ORDER"

Everybody knows that when 47 kills Ort. Meyer, the game is over, and there's no after mission description in laptop. What are those sentences?

Write everything in the world you know about this sentences, please! I'm in turmoil for this problem since 2002! I WILL AWARD THE USER THAT HELPS ME SOLVING THIS PROBLEM! --Aeternus 17:27, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

- I'd say it's just dialog that was in earlier versions on the game, during development, and not used in the final released version. A lot of games have this sort of thing, i.e. content that is present on the CD but can't be accessed ingame. (signed, anonymous lurker)

[edit] What Are the other 12 weapons that are awarded?

What are the other 12 weapons that are rewarded for getting the silent assassin rank? They should definately be listed.

I don't think they should; that's not relevant enough to be posted in here. Remember, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a game guide. 24.155.168.54 06:18, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup?

I feel that this article is decent enough. I don't feel cleanup is particularly necessary, but if you guys have good reasons for cleanup, I'll listen. BishopTutu 06:28, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Help

Does anyone know where the influence to make the Beldingford manor came from? Was it derived from an actual manor? I'd like to know as much as I can about it. Thanks.
