May 25th, 2004 marks the 20th anniversary of Thief: Deadly Shadows's release (in North America). Garrett returned to his life of crime after the Mechanists' downfall and was thrown into a cryptic conspiracy on this day twenty years ago.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the release, a contest was held (https://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=152224) here on TTLG where Fan Mission builders had one year to build one or more missions in the style of the original game. We have received a total of 4 missions, including one for Deadly Shadows.

Before playing these missions, please take the following into account:

* It is best if you use AngelLoader to play since it automatically recognizes which FM is made for which game.
* It is highly recommended you disable all the optional features it contains (e.g. T2 textures, T2 skies and so on).
* It is highly recommended you do not use the Enhancement Pack and/or HD texture packs either.

Seeing as this is a contest, you taffers get to vote for your favorite mission. The voting period will start on June 2nd 2024 and end on September 1st 2024. Mission voting is presented as 3 categories worth 10 points each — Atmosphere, Gameplay and Story, or a general score of 30 without categories. Voters can choose either system to score missions. Be advised that judges may deduct up to 5 points per submission if contest rules were broken. You can vote here: (https://www.ttlg.com/polls/TDS20thAnniversary)

You can view the original thread announcing the contest one year ago (https://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=152224) HERE.

In most cases, the anonymous authors' identities will be unveiled after the voting period ends and voters' comments will be posted for every mission. The author whose mission received the best score shall obtain the prestigious title of Master Builder 2024 and everyone shall bow down to them (unless you're a Pagan, in which case you may throw rotten apples at them).

Thanks to the contestants and have fun!

Awesome! Congrats to all the authors for the releases. Cool that we got all 3 games represented in the submissions. I was hoping we'd get at last one Dark Mod mission also.

congrats to everyone on their releases! TDS mission really is a surprise, but it has place to be rightfully so :cheeky:

Congrats to all the authors.

I also highly recommend the only T3 mission 'Wolfenstein' by Adsk, it's an excellent mission with a great plot as anyone familiar with Adsk's work would expect, so yes time to re-install T3 if you haven't already done so.

Congrats on the release, Will be playing them soon!

It would be nice if each mission is named to a particular game type (TDP, TMA, TDS), don't know for wich game is each one.

fortuni on 26/5/2024 at 18:52

It says which game in the individual mission threads.

TG Mysteries of Tolham
T2 A Shadow on the Water
T2 One Man's Trash
T3 Wolfenstein by Adsk1
