After an almost 4-year break from DromED I was bored enough this weekend to prepare a new small mission.

I've called this mission the Armory of Sir Gilbert. Perhaps you won't like it if you don't enjoy ghosting/ loot hunt missions. You don't have weapons in your inventory (only a compass).

The goal : loot everything you find. The mission is pretty tiny and can be completed within 5 minutes - but if you know how. And the guards are pretty much annoying thanks to me :P

Special thanks to : Thor for betatesting. Yeh, I'm giving him credit cuz he really deserves it :) Not only for betatesting, but for some cool ideas.

N'Joy.

YES!!!! Finally another Thief 1 FM :cheeky: I'll have to find the time later to play it.
Congrats on the release :thumb:

EDIT: Nice little challenge you've made here, it was quite fun actually :D It definitely shows that you have potential building skills for a bigger level. From what I can see is that you know the basics of building a small little mission, now try to take those little skills and make them better by making a nice medium level maybe to start your level designing off ;)

I'm glad that you liked this mission.

The truth is, I do have bigger missions (My best is probably HGS - Secrets of Avidan). But I'm a retired designer :D My work is that of the past.

Nostalgia brought me back to DromEd and that's why I designed this tiny level - to remember my old times. But I don't know when I'm going to design the next one. I'm a retired dromeder and I only open the editor when I'm really bored and nostalgic.

Congrats on making this, man!

Wow, great! A TDP mission! Launching this immediately. :D
Finished. You should have compiled with Objcast lighting rather than quick.

But I always use Objcast. Weird.

i completed it,and hard loot to find was the ring on the upstairs table or chair,i was just frobing everything by that point,also a tip i alerted all guards drew them outside then locked myself inside so i had all the time in the world to find the loot

Congrats on the release! I look forward to playing it. It's great to see you making missions again. I hope this is just the first of many. :cheeky:

I know that many people are asking if I'm going to return back to DromEdding.

I can't promise anything. I've promised to release some missions in the past (including a co-mission with Pedro Quintela). Nothing has happened. Why? Because I didn't have an idea what exactly I should do.

This small Thief 1 mission worked for me because I knew EXACTLY what I wanted - I wanted to create and release quickly a mission that's ghostable, yet tiny, but relatively hard.

Looks like I was successful.

As for the future? I can't promise. I have too much real life. Working on my PhD.

But hey! If you enjoyed my newest 2014 mission, don't forget to try some of my older FMs - like the Space Project :D
