Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Cheat Codes

  1. Teleportation Cheat/Mission Win Cheat

    Teleportation Cheat

    There is a special cheat in Hitman 2 that will allow you to teleport 47 anywhere the crosshairs are pointing at the ground. This is very handy to avoid guards, skip portions of a level, or to find the perfect sniping spot.

    You can teleport anywhere as long as it is a solid, flat surface. You need to be in in 3rd person mode or using the scope or binoculars, because it doesn't seem to work in first-person mode.

    To enable this cheat, open the ''keyboard.cfg'' file using ''edit.com''. (notepad won't read the file right, as it is an xml file) Add the following lines somewhere in the middle of the file, between the other entries.

    <Mapping Action=''CheatMove'' Activation=''None''>
    <Key SCode=''K_NEXT'' Device=''Keyboard''/>
    </Mapping>

    To bind the cheat to another key besides Page Down(as is listed in the example), replace the ''K_NEXT'' with ''K_*'', where * is any uppercase letter.

    Mission Win Cheat

    Using a copy of the codeblock above, replace ''CheatMove'' with ''CompleteLevel''. This allows you to complete the mission instantly. Also rember to change the key binding to another key.
  2. Full Ammunition

    With cheats enabled in your hitman2 ini file, type this at any point during gameplay to get full ammunition.
    CheatEffect
    IOIEQPWEAPFull ammunition
  3. Console Codes

    While you're playing a mission, hit Tilde (~) to bring down the Console and enter the following codes:


    Note: 1 turns the code ON and 0 turns the code OFF. You must also put a space between the number and the code.

    Invisibility makes you invisible to all AI, but not yourself.

    CheatEffect
    God 1/0Turns invincibility on or off
    Invisible 1/0Turns invisibility on or off (you can still be heard though)
    Gravity 1/0Turns Gravity on or off. When you shoot a dead bosy, it will float in the air
    Giveall 1/0Gives you all guns. 999 bullets for pistols, assault rifles, and shotguns. Also gives you 500 bullets for Sniper Rifles
    Nailgun 1/0Turns nail gun effect on or off. Dead body's hand will stick to a wall it touches

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Passwords

  1. Matrix Mode Shooting

    Open the console. Type "ip_timemultiplier x" where x is a POSITIVE integer.
    The default value for x is 1. (Normal Game Speed)

    You can set it to:
    0.01-0.3 for Slow Matrix
    0.31-0.6 for Matrix Walk
    0.61-0.99 for Beginner's Slowmotion
    1.01-5.00 for Blitz Mode (Ultra-Fast Gun Firing and Moving)
    5.01-25.00 for Ultra-Madness Blitz

    Note: This should NOT be done on VERY slow computers as it will cause the loading time to be very long and produce slow, choppy movements.

    PasswordEffect
    ip_timemultiplier xFaster or slower frame movements, x is a positive integer

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Secrets

  1. Tons of Cheats

    Open your Hitman2.ini in the Hitman2 directory in a text editor and add ''EnableCheats 1'' without quotations right below EnableConsole.
    You can activate the following cheats by typing them in the game while playing.

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Glitches

  1. Two pistols at the same time + Rapid Reload

    1) Equip your ballers (either kind, it doesn't matter).

    2) Drop them on the ground.

    3) Equip a pistol

    4) Pick up the ballers. (notice that the pistol you had equipped is moved to your left hand)

    5) Equip a pistol you want to use the trick with.

    6) You now have two pistols in your hands.

    You can fire both pistols at the same time, but the pistol in your left hand will not be reloaded once it goes through it's initial clip. Meanwhile, the pistol in your right hand will never have to be reloaded again. As soon as the last round in a clip leaves this gun, it will be instantaneously filled, without a moments pause in the shooting, as long as you have extra ammo for it.

    The Sawn-off Shotgun may be used as a part of this trick, but it can only experience the rapid reload. By this I mean the Sawn-off will not fire if it is in your left hand with a pistol in your right, and a pistol will not fire if it is in your left hand and the Sawn-off is in your right hand. The gun in your right hand will still fire and experience Rapid Reload.
  2. Fast Lockpicking & Clothes Changing

    To lockpick a door or change clothes really fast, quickly press the map button as soon as 47 moves to perform the action.
  3. Unlock Every Level WITHOUT Cheats

    To unlock every level without the use of cheats to mess up your score, simply start a New Game. When it asks you to choose a difficulty, go back and select Current Game, and every level should be unlocked, without a rating.

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Secrets

  1. How to get a custom rifle

    When you are in the castle in japan. After you have shut down all generators, go to the back of the castle. You have to walk on the right sid if you are facing the castle. There is a sniper who cant see you when you enter the hallway. If you have a smg (sd6) shoot him in the head. Has to be one shot. He will fall out of the window our at least his weapon will. The custom rifle sileneced sniper rifle. Then this might take a few tries. Luckily i got it on the first try. You must complete the level with this weapon in your possesion.
  2. Faster Knife Attacks

    Playing in third person, there is a limit to how fast you can swing small knives, like the scalpel or combat knife. However, if you enter first person, this delay time is non-existent, making combat far easier.

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Glitches

  1. Kill A UN Guard Glitch

    In the Level Motorcade Interception, one of the mission objectives, is to spare the UN guards and not kill them. You can simply kill them by approaching behind them and use the Fibre Wire on them to kill them. Using only the wire will glitch and allow you to kill them.
  2. Early Silenced WA2k Sniper Rifle

    In order to obtain the silenced WA2k sniper rifle early in the game, play the levels with the ninja clan snipers (either At The Gates or Hidden Valley), where you originally start off with that stupid crossbow. In the large sniper towers, all of the ninja snipers are equipped with powerful silenced sniper rifles, a weapon you won't get until much later on in the game. In order to get one early, snipe a ninja with a solid headshot as they're slightly leaning out of a window, and more often than not when they jerk back they'll drop their silenced rifles over the railings and onto the ground below the tower. It may take a couple tries, but it beats having to wait to get it several missions down the line, since this is the end-all sniper rifle in the game.
  3. Stretchy People

    Put on the "Nailgun" cheat and shoot someone onto a wall. Make sure they're in your reach and go to one of their legs or arms that isnt "nailing" them to the wall and press "drag body". If you have done it right you can now walk around while holding onto the person and they will stay on the wall unless you select the "drop body" option.
  4. Rat Dragging

    If you're ever in the sewer and you have a gun out you've probably noticed that the (aiming circle) which is white unless there is an enemy and it turns red. It's because theres rats in there that you can kill and drag. All you have to do is shoot it when you see the red circle, search for it, and then when you're near it the "drag body" option will appear and 47 will bend over and drag it like a person.
  5. Quick Lock Picking

    When you come to a lock that needs to be picked just start to pick the lock then after about a second press Select then X to open up your map, then wait about another second then hit triangle to exit the map, if you did it right the object should now be unlocked and it was done in only a fraction of the time. (If it doesn't work the first time wait a little longer in the map before you leave back to game play)

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Secrets

  1. Get M4 Without Silent Assassin Ranking on St. Petersburg Missions

    Play Motorcade Interception. Get atop the tower that is along the main stretch to the palace. Snipe the guy in the limo. After he dies, the UN troops will get off the jeep and come to shoot at you. The jeep will lay down supressive fire. If you can get one of the UN troops between you and the jeep, it should kill him without failing the mission. Pick up the M4 and head to the extraction point. You now have the M4 in your shed--a whole hell of a lot easier than beating the St. Petersburg missions on silent assassin.

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Glitches

  1. Level-Select Glitch

    First, start a new game or load one from your memory card. Then quit back to the main menu. If you go to Start, you'll have the option of Current Game or New Game. Select New Game and it should warn you about losing unsaved progress. Select Yes and it will bring you to the difficulty selection. Instead of selecting one, just press the back button to go to the previous menu, and this time select Current Game instead. When it brings you to the mission selection screen, it will have all the missions on it! Note: Keep in mind that, by selecting New Game, you ARE losing your unsaved progress. It's just like starting any new game, but at any level you want. So you will not have any of your ratings or guns from the game you quit from.
  2. Faster Pick lock

    When you are picklocking a door press start and then go to your map then exit and the door should be picked.
