Loth Soth can't redirect his .uk site as he got locked out, password no longer worked, that's why he had to open a new site entirely.

Didn't someone recently upload all missions onto Archive.org, guess it was about 6 months ago, but uploaded zips containing all missions rather than individual missions so not particularly useful for downloading missions unless you fancy d/l 50-60GB at a time.
Downloading individual files is not an issue - you just select the "show all" option and then in the file listing you have a "show contents" option for each zip archive, so you can access everything by single element in the archive.

Can't help I'm afraid, but it's certainly worth checking each individual mission is the latest release before you upload, Darkfate has the most up to date repository and they also host a ton of fixed missions that are not available any where else.
Better still somewhere on Darkfate they host all missions in one complete file that's maintained with all the latest releases, so all you would need to do is download mega file from them and then upload that. Don't know where that file is but you could PM Glypher and he'll send you a link.

Whoah, I didn't know that.
This could be a start of a proper mirroring system.
I'll reach out for more information.

Good to see that Taffer's Paradise is back up. I'll still share this, I've been trying to maintain a spreadsheet on my Google Docs account, a master listing of FMs with download and TTLG links. It's a work in progress, but currently goes back about 15 years. Every so often I'll go in and add some stuff, and there's no guarantee it's all accurate, but I thought it might be another source for people to download missions.

Thief FM Master List

>Thief FM Master List
But how to use it? Can I search for something on this list?
fortuni on 20/8/2024 at 14:24
Are you uploading the mission onto your own google drive, asking because I suggest you avoid using authors original Google drive links in any such master list, often they are only active for a couple of years before they go dead, not a problem when you have only 20 missions in your list but once you have all 1000 missions it will become a nightmare to maintain.
Renault on 20/8/2024 at 14:29
@A.Stahl - Everything is chronological, there is a tab for each year. No searching capabilities beyond what would be in a normal spreadsheet.
@fortuni - All of the download links are for my personal Google drive.

IMO it's the high time that someone thought about setting up a repository of FMs either on Github, Archive.org or both. I'm actually astounded this hasn't been done yet. It's not 2005 anymore, we have reliable hosts like those and they're free to use.
I have backups for the following on archive.org: (
https://archive.org/details/taffersparadise) Taffers Paradise, (
https://archive.org/details/the-keep-of-metal-and-gold_backup) The Keep of Metal and Gold and (
https://archive.org/details/ThiefMissions) ThiefMissions
The Github thing is something I've been working on actually, albeit slowly. I already have pretty much (might be missing one or two that have been released in recent months) all T1/Gold FM's downloaded, stored and sorted alphabetically on my PC and a Github page. I'm working my way through Thief II, currently on all FM's starting with the letter G.
