I finally dragged my worthless, lazy carcass to finishing this excellent campaign (I tried it first back when it was not a campaign yet and could not play one mission because it kept crashing with ddfix). I must say, my hat is off to you sir. I haven't had so much fun with Thief in a long time. Everything in the campaign was great: the story, the levels, the textures, the music, even the humor (i almost spilled drink, when i found a certain sight in the crypt in "Darkthrone"). Well done!

Mission 4
The door to the throne room (it's the one with the misty floor, I presume)
is locked and there's no other way to get to the talismans. I can't unlock it with anything and I thought I already took every key I stumbled upon (I searched the whole library and picked up everything, including the contents of the secret compartment). Is it possible to jump over the handrail down into the room ? I'm really puzzled... :(

Petike - in the room next to the Throne Room (with guards patrolling) look for a table with golden bones.

ohhhh, this is gonna be FUN!!!!!!!! :eek: :thumb:
after only 30 mins i can give you the best compliment i can think of Sensut:
you know you have created a great mission but more importantly, you have succeeded in transporting the player to an entirely new world for Thief! the world of Romania and Central/Eastern Europe. thru the architecture you chose and the weapons of the guards and the uniforms (the "Ay Yıldız" on the uniforms was a nice touch! tho not all that historically factual i think! lol!), hell man, you even used face meshes with flatter planes and fuller beards! (you devil, you really are in the details!) LOL!
only drawback was the samo samo guard voices/dialog. if you could have had some peeps with the correct accents and vocal tones do sum voice work it would have been mind blowing!
so, bravo, bravissimo, and kudos for such excellent reflavoring of generic Thief!!!!
(one "oopsie" tho - the Ay Yıldız banner above the drawbridge is a negative (reversed) image - the crescent moon should be to the left of the star)(i think when it gets noticed, some Turk soldier is gonna be on a year of latrine duty for putting it up backwards!!!!!)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
um, i just noticed, objective #1 says "before you start", find person waiting for you and read his message.
i am at the drawbridge after getting out of the water in EARLY part of the mission - did i miss the person somehow?

The banner there is reversed, the back is shows a mirror image unfortunately and I noticed too late :erm: .
No longer wanted to completely change the sounds because the size of the package is already considerable and more mega-plus would have, at least that's Thief-like in it :D .
There is a
courier at the firecamp at the start, but was killed by the Turks and the werewolf is coming. He had a letter what is there beside the fire and you need to read.Glad you like it :thumb: .

You need to go back there anyway :D .

i figured i did when i read what was implied in a post by someone who apparently has played thru the whole mission once already!
oh, who's blood trail was i following in the catacombs?
and i like your take on "the lady or the tiger", except of course yours was the zombie or the door! haha!!
i also really liked the song on the victrola at the musicians camp! reminded me a LOT of Simon & Garfunkel's "Scarborough Fair"! (one of my faves by them!!!)
(was it a sitar that was being played?)(and what group was it?)
