A few details on the mission:
It's for Thief 2
It's almost completely covered in thick fog (so make sure to turn fog on in the options screen!)
It has many places to explore
It's about as non-linear as a mission can get
It's fairly easy but does provide some interesting challenges
It has burricks! WOOT! Along with another Thief TDP creature...
It takes place in a swamp (go figure)
It's very very cool! (Just my personal opinion, and the opinion of the beta testers)
So what are you waiting for! Get to it!
PS: I challenge everyone here to see if they can find the three secrets!
One is simply a hidden item stash
The other two are a bit more complex. I'll give you one hint: they both involve heavy objects.
If you do find/solve these secrets you can post them here but please please make sure to spoilerize it so that you don't ruin the fun for everyone else.
Enjoy!

Hey, congratulations! It sounds like fun! Just 2 problems...
1) I don't have T2 yet... >=(
2) I don't think you had to post this in the editor's guild, too. But that's me. I don't think anyone'll mind too much...

1) Get thief 2! For your own sake! There are so many great fms out there for thief 2 and you have no idea what you're missing.
2)I just felt like getting the word around, I hope it doesn't bother anyone too much. :sweat: I think newly released fms should be an exception to posting a thread more than once. :)

This is the one I loved the screenshots of? I'll jump into it both hands down!
Just a guess before I play, is the other creature a crayman?

this is a great mission, except for one sizable defect - the objectives aren't checking off. i've done everything on expert except find the 5th jewel, and should be able to finish. i only got credit for keeper newton's journal. i have the emerald and ruby in my possession, but no check, perhaps because i retrieved them in the opposite order as written. the 'find the exit' checks off, but then disappears. anyone else experience this?
also, i completed the pedestal puzzle, which i can only assume is one of the 'heavy objects' secrets, but upon dying the stats screen lists 0 of 0 secrets. what up?
i really liked the way the different areas ended up connecting later on. very fun mission. and i think the tree beasts are way underused in FMs.
