Hey everyone,
Ive been craving some thief action lately and thought Id pop in. Glad to see the community here is alive and kickin (what a great community of people contributing here!). So I recently started the new T4 game, I like it so far but still crave the classic experience, and dark mod helps with that.
Im more craving a campaign or large missions and my issue with dark mod is most of the missions are stand alone and a little buggy, though its a great mod. I like a good riveting story and Id like to see dark mod release a huge campaign, though thats easier said than done I know (hell Id even be willing to try writing a good storyline for a campaign of that type, since I suck at coding).
Anyways I want to be sure Ive got this fan mission process right so Ill lay out what Ive done then ask my question. (btw running Win7 64bit)
Clean installed TG, T2, and T3. Applied full Tfix, tafferpatcher, and sneakyupgrade patches to those games. I believe all 3 have built in fan mission loaders so I went with those options. Now I have to link the FM archive path for each game and I should be able to drop zipped missions into those directories and be good.
So my question is, will the built in loaders be able to handle all previous FMs? (I noticed certain missions and campaigns correspond to different versions of Thief).
I plan on starting with the large campaigns like strife, incubus, and working my way down the list. Is there anything else Im missing here?
Thanks, hope this wasnt a nuisance, mainly just wanted to thank all the people involved keeping the Thief experience alive. TTLG forums is the best community ever.
