Agree with all of the above. Unca, if you're not sure about your mission, and it's mostly done, maybe grab a few veteran Thief players and have them Alpha it to get a better idea of how good it is.

Some of us prefer the look of Olddark, it's what got us into Thief in the first place :p

Old is gold. :cool:

I can testify to that. ;)
I'm definitely in the 'gameplay and story over what it looks like' camp.
I might even admit to not always being sure what the difference is apart from a mission not crashing when I climb up high. (I'm a bit technically and visually challenged though)

I've been working on that seven year old mission I was working on before Thief stopped working on my computer. I have it running again on a Windows 7 machine.I don't feel good about it though. I've been hacking at it and trying to make it workable, but it feels like the worst thing I've ever made. Not only that it looks like Old Dark, not NewDark.
I haven't played Thief in a long while now, but I always enjoyed your previous missions. I can of course not say anything substantial about the quality of the mission you are working on, but, judging from your earlier work, I would probably enjoy that too. You might get some flak for still using stock resources, but not from me: coherently sticking to a chosen style is more important to me than hi-res, 4K, and all that fancy stuff could ever be. Furthermore, I like the old style, and I'm happy to see that others do too.
Edit:
I forgot to add that there used to be at least one author from Sweden, but now there is one less.

I'm going to keep pounding and bending it until it takes the shape of something tolerable.

Rather than opening a new thread, I'll just ask here: does anyone know if Naks is still active, or has any news about her? I just played Snobs 1 and 2, and oh boy did those two missions do some creative things! I'd love to see part 3 of that FM series, but on her profile it says Naks was last here in 2013.

I highly doubt it. I believe tdbonko is the only person who could give an actual answer regarding her status.

I'm still alive...just!:laff:
Started on a campaign mission a couple of years ago...lost any storyline with writers block..then the evil cancer struck my wife and I lost six months of my life caring for her which is still on going and now at last I have dusted it off and decided that the work I had done would be better off as part 2, so I have started AGAIN and this is part 1 with a belter of a story line...gritty, with a mildly adult theme.
