Custom Content

Peacock has lots of goodies packed in for our users. Here's a peek at our custom content!

Elusive Targets

Within Peacock, you can replay Elusive Targets without any time limit on restarts (unlike Elusive Target Arcade), and without a time limit.

  • How to Play:
    • After starting up Hitman 3 in Peacock, go to Career -> Elusive Targets in-game.
  • See the Plugins section for information on installing "The Brothers" Elusive Target (cut content) in Hitman 3.

Escalations

Custom Peacock Escalations

Peacock supports custom (Peacock original) escalations. These escalations are available in-game by default. You can see some custom escalations listed in the Roadmaps as well.

Official Server Escalations and Legacy Escalations

Peacock also supports all official server escalations, including Hitman 2016 escalations that have not been ported to Hitman 2 or 3 (legacy escalations). These escalations are available in-game by default.

  • Note: You can select specific escalation levels to start on using the Escalation Level Picker tool, as explained here

Contracts Mode

Peacock supports both official server and custom Peacock contracts.

This includes custom (Peacock original) contracts created by Peacock dev team. You can see some of these custom featured contracts here.

  • Note: Official Servers Featured Contracts are not included.

How to Play

Go to Game Modes -> Contracts -> Featured menu in-game.

User-Created Official Server Contracts

How to Install

  • Note: This only works while the HITMAPS bot is authenticated for the platform in question.
    • More info on how to authenticate it.
    • To check if it's online, run the command /botstatus in the #bot-spam channel in the Peacock Discord. The status is updated every 10 minutes.
  • Go to Game Modes -> Contracts -> Contract Lookup menu in-game.
  • Enter the official server contract ID (Contracts from every platform except Nintendo Switch are supported for this).
  • The contract will now be downloaded in your contracts folder.

How to Play

Go to Game Modes -> Contracts -> My Contracts in-game to play.

User-Created Peacock Contracts

How to Install

Download the contract's .json file from the share-contracts channel in Peacock Discord. Place the .json file in your Contracts folder, as shown here: .

How to create your own

  • If you create a contract in-game while in Peacock server, your contract will be saved as an .json file in Contracts folder, as shown in the image above.
  • Be sure to share your .json file in Peacock Discord's share-contracts channel if you want others to play your custom Peacock contract.

How to Play

  • Go to Game Modes -> Contracts -> My Contracts in-game to play.

Plugins

Peacock supports a broad variety of server side mods (plugins). These include, but are not limited to:

  • Kill Everyone Mode
    • All real NPC's marked as targets, can get Silent Assassin rating back after killing everyone.
    • Note: Very buggy for maps with 200+ targets, guns may jam randomly. You may need to start by melee killing people.
  • Brothers Elusive Target (Cut Content / Fan Mod)
    • NOTE: Although the Brothers ET mod is compatible with Peacock, it is a fan interpretation of how the mission would have played out, and not necessarily canon
    • File Download: https://www.nexusmods.com/hitman3/mods/375?tab=files
    • Install the main portion of the mod (the file not marked "Peacock Plugin") through Simple Mod Framework. Install the "Peacock Plugin" portion of the mod by putting it into your Peacock Install folder
  • Plugins to add otherwise unused weapons to the game
  • Plugins to modify existing weapons and disguises

How to Install Plugins

Broadly speaking, to install plugins, go to either the plugins or #plugin-releases channel in the Peacock Discord and download a plugin you are interested in.

  • Put your plugins into the plugins folder, located in the Peacock folder (created automatically by the server the first time you launch it).
  • The plugin should end with .plugin.js or Plugin.js - if it's distributed as a .zip, extract it first.

Example: Plugins folder

  • Be sure to check for any further instructions in the plugin's description, as some plugins may require further setup steps or won't work with newer versions of Peacock.
note

Plugins are only a small portion of the Hitman modding scene. Many Hitman mods are done client-side and out of scope of Peacock. More general-use client-side mods, outside the scope of Peacock, are aggregated here:
