So, who is this mysterious "Chopsticks" ? :D
Sperry maybe ?! or Stinkykitty ?

Looks like a typical DrK mission to me. :angel:

One can see the author's name in DromEd.
It's not DrK

Com'on it's totally me.

Glad I found this, it's a delightful mission. But I've been abusing the [spoiler]infinity crate[/spoiler] to get to high places and I got punished for it. Too many objects and the game crashed :(

Hi everyone! I tried to play this FM, but when I launch it DarkLoaders opens T2's first mission :confused:
Any ideas on how to fix this are welcome! :thumb:

Common problem, Darkloader sees all Thief 1/G FMs as a T2 FM. You have to edit Darkloader.ini and change the mission type to 1.

Wow, this was quite a ride! Had to get help from the thread on how to proceed to the main part of the mission (kinda embarrasing, since the entrance is very similar to the OM) and how to get to the Mystic's Soul area.

I noted the peculiar side effect of using fire arrows in this mission. This also led to a fun fight between fire elementals and fire shadow. The elementals get smaller as they take damage, something you don't normally see often since it's so dangerous to be around them...

I found two large caches of moss arrows. Is there any particular point to these in this mission? I sure didn't need them.

This is one of only two missions I've seen that lets you climb rock surfaces using arrows. (The other is Horns of Canzo 2.)

I must be missing something obvious [spoiler]I've got the bow upgrade, found the infinity crate, found an area with arrow traps near a zombie priest, found a dead thief.[/spoiler] I can't progress any further.

The bow upgrade lets you use rope arrows on stone surfaces (well, most of them, at least). In the areas around where you are, look up for holes in the ceiling.

Yes I know that. I've been going round looking for more than an hour.
