I know some of you played the original version of Basement, but I hope you'll still try the new and improved T2 one. It transferred over very nicely and it's now fully sneakable!! There are new difficulty settings, changes in loot and I had a lot of fun working with Andrea on it during the betatesting. Enjoy!

p.s. For any of you who have had reservations about switching over to the new Darkloader, like I did, it works beautifully. You really, REALLY need to have it installed to appreciate this mission. :)

The mission is now available at (http://lserv00.math.uh.edu/thief/missions/) Cheap Thief Mission Downloads. :)

Ok NightWalker - where are you hiding the Hand of Glory? I went as far south and as far west as I could but I have no idea where the bugger is.

I was hoping the guards would have Italian accents. :ebil:

Nightwalker on 28/7/2002 at 01:51

:joke: Italian accents would be cool! Andrea should have done his own voices.:)

To find the Hand of Glory, you need to cross a board walkway that is very close to the stairs up to the Music room. At the far end of that area, there's a locked door. The clue for where to look for the key is there. If you can't find the key and want a spoiler, let me know. There's also another clue you need to find that gives you an idea how to actually GET the Hand. This one is full of puzzles! :)

I was just comming back to tell you, "Never mind I found it!" I had forgotten about that door. d'oh!:cheeky:

Goldie81 on 14/8/2002 at 09:24

Eh.. I can't find the exit. First I ran back to where I started but then I remembered I had fallen down, hehe.

Can anyone please tell me where it is?

Goldie81 on 14/8/2002 at 09:35

Never mind I found it

Yeah I know I ask for help too soon.. (no patience)

You exit into the garden. On the east side.

I was impressed with the last obstacle before the exit. It's like a three-dimensional maze.

I almost gave up on this mission right away. I couldn't find the first key! I tried again and searched more thoroughly and found it. After that, the mission was... I won't say it was "easy". But it was challenging without being more difficult than I could handle.
