anyway to check in code which weapons i need to use for achivements?

[Dvayne Reaze]

I think i used all guns and weapons now. So maybe i can check somehow in game files?

Technically yes. Progress is stored in the save file located at: "C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\HotlineMiami\SaveData.sav". You can open it using an hex editor (e.g. HxD), and look for the strings of 0 and 1 after "achievements.dat".

Line 1 is masks worn for Sounds Of Animals Fighting.
Line 2 is guns used for Guns For Show.
Line 3 is weapons used for Knife For Pros.
Line 4 is weapons thrown for Pitcher achievement.
Line 5 is weapons used when performing ground kills for Always On Top achievement.

However, nobody has taken the time to map each 0/1 in the file to a specific mask/weapon, so you won't know which masks/weapons you are missing (all the 0s).

If the question is for Always on Top, commonly forgotten executions are:
* pool cue AND broken pool cue (the two have different executions)
* pot with water AND without water (2nd floor Chapter 2 / 3rd flood Chapter 7) (same as pool cue, two different executions)
* frying pan (2nd floor Chapter 5 / 3rd flood Chapter 7)
* brick, dart, scissors and glass bottle (thrown weapons with unique executions)

Tell also order of executions in code. I got 1 left. It's 6 or 7 from the right

As I said, nobody ever bothered to map it out :D

You have the list of all commonly forgotten executions in my first message, I recommend you try them out first.

I assume you are referencing to this page? https://hotlinemiami.fandom.com/wiki/Always_On_Top
Again: nobody has taken the time to map each 0/1 in the file to a specific mask/weapon. The list on the wiki is just a list, it has no correspondence whatsoever to the order of 0/1 in the file.

Unfortunately it seems you are not, otherwise you'd have all 1s in here... :D Try them all again, and don't forget about the weapons with multiple executions as outlined above ;)
