I'm proud to present MOC2: The Mansion of Chaos.(For thief:TDP or thief gold)
After about one and 3/4 years and many many bugs and problems it's finally out to the public!
Please keep in mind that this is my first mission so some of the areas seem rather plain or odd looking because they were the first area's I created and I had little experience way back then. This is a large file so there are a few versions: Without the briefing, with the low quality briefing, and with the high quality briefing. You can also get the high quality briefing seperately.

[EDIT]
You can now get the fixed version of the mission at
KoMaG's site: (http://www.keepofmetalandgold.com/fmarchive.htm)
Cheap Missions: (http://thiefmissions.com/m/mansionofchaos)
The Circle: (http://thief-thecircle.com/missions/)
TTLG.de: (http://www.ttlg.de/de/download/navigation/FM-Download.xml)

It's worth trying again, it seems many are experiencing a significantly less number of crashes on it.
[/EDIT]

Make sure you watch the briefing one way or another because, trust me, its not something you will want to miss. (Thanks to Loanstar and Lazarus)
There is one bug I could never fix so I will tell you how to get around it. For some players (not everyone for some odd reason) the game boots you out when you exit the first room. To avoid this simply save it and reload before you exit the room. The problem should then be gone (also mentioned in the mission text).

There are a few really really good secrets that I'm sure no one will find. In order for me to tell you these secrets you need to find a password hidden somewhere in the mission. E-mail it to me and I'll let you in on a few very cool secrets. I'm almost finishing the walkthrough and loot list, so expect that in a few days. If you get stuck for some reason or another post here or feel free to e-mail me at [email]sheep_ish_lion_@hotmail.com[/email]
Don't forget the THREE underscores.

That's about all I can think of at the moment. I seriously suggest playing on expert since you get to see a few more things and the extra goals aren't really that hard. And if you're looking for the secret password you can only find it on hard and expert.

I wish you luck on your journey through the Mansion of Chaos. And remember, its all made for your enjoyment so try not to get frustrated.

:D :cool:Sharga :cool: :D

Umm...

You know that bug you mentioned about crashing out when you leave the first area? Well, it's driving me nuts! I saved the game about 2 steps before it crashes, yet it still happens every time when I reload from there.

What's worse, I sometimes need to hit reset to recover from the lockup. Could you please post specific, step-by-step instructions on how to bypass this bug?
