To read that book was the first thing i´ve done, and then it gave me new objectives, the strange is that i´ve got all scripts and got the last update v1.18. Anyway i´ll check if everything is fine in my Thief 2 folder.

Arac Attack - Yukkkkkkkk! :eww:
Short and fun !
All readables blank, but didn't spoil it.
Nice logical progression with good surprises.:thumb:

A bit late for me to say this, I know, but I found this mission rather intense. Nice clean design, great enemies, and plenty of surprises.
The final showdown with the Queen somewhat reminded me of Shial's Lair from Blood.

Bwahahaha I'm arachnophobic so I just hit the queen with arrows. The only mission I cannot complete, next to Deceptive Perceptions, but I got past that one:cheeky:

This is one of my favourites, - though I've never been able to find the corrected text for the readables.This time though I've struck a bit of a (very large!!) obstacle. I hid in an alcove in the queen's chamber and peppered her with arrows until she died. She couldn't reach me.
Unfortunately her huge bulk blocks my exit. I can see right through it to her offspring all lined up, shooting webs that don't quite reach.
And I can't bloody get out!
Oh well, back to the start. A reason for not relying just on quicksaves, I think.

Just finished--a nice, quick, little mission that I found at times beautiful, and other times frustrating.
I rather enjoyed the overall design (especially the flaming house), but did have issues with the arrows: the aim was incredibly far off in some areas--like the spot with 3 spiders clustered together at a bend, right before the spider that falls down from the ceiling. Also, even though I know it was hard not to be so, I found the linear play to be somewhat of a disappointment--though, only slightly as it was still fun!
7 out of 10 for a few good jumps; and for being lean, visually pleasing and well worth the play.

There are little spiders everywhere! They are really annoying. We are trying our best to kill these little beasts, but it seems there are more and more of them.

We have to repair the reactor fast, or it will explode! Curse the novice - he said he only want to swing the pick a last time, but it slipped through his hands!

Probably this is my last entry. They are coming and going to kill us all. The reactor exploded and laid off much radiation. The little spiders suddenly became superspiders. One spider went so big, it started to lay eggs! But that is not all, the most brothers are dead or eaten. These spiders laid there eggs near the reactor to breed much more superspiders. Some spiders managed to........."

Just getting back into playing T2 missions since I have approx 900+ missions on my hard drive.
New install using T2fix1.27a. Have a couple of questions. I have version 1.2 of AracAttack installed(I started playing the alphabetically)
1 - the readables are blank - I thought they would all be fixed with the 1.27a - is this not correct? is this something I need to look out for and manually fix myself in each mission? - I have most of the book patches just didn't think I would need them
2 - this mission plays great and I am enjoying it but had one Big problem when I get to the large cavern where the Queen is supposed to be she is MIA - I went out and watched a video so I know I am in the right spot - has anyone else ran into this problem. All I have is a circle of a dozen+ spiders. after I killed them I went down but nothing there - tried reloading from earlier save but still nothing when I get to the cavern

The books in this mission are blank as they were set up incorrectly, but you could always check out the post above yours. :sly:
PS. Have played this mission a couple of time before and queen spider was always there, so don't know what the problem is, have you got a save?
