Hello, Taffers!

My first mission, Bad Debts, has been completed just in time for Christmas, and is available for download.

Note: since the map may be a bit hard to read due to the low resolution, I recommend printing the high resolution copy included in the root directory of the archive. You can pore over it in the darkness just like Garrett would! In a separate directory, there are also a few bits of concept art and the original plan for the map, as well as a lootlist assembled by Emerald Wolf and the other betatesters.

1.1 update note
- It has been eight years since the mission was first released. Wow! :D
- This version includes a French translation provided by Apiai, with small corrections by skacky. Thank you, both!
- The in-game map has been cleaned up and fitted with a background. It is available in both English and French.
- The version featuring updated objects has been withdrawn. If you wish to play Bad Debts with updated objects, simply install the Object Enhancement Pack.
- Parts of the mission are slightly easier than they used to be thanks to improved mantling behaviour in NewDark. To my knowledge, this does not substantially alter the difficulty or allow the player to get stuck somewhere they are not meant to be.

[edit]
Series information:
The missions in this series take place shortly before the TDP storyline. None of them require previous knowledge of previous FMs, but there are common elements and a degree of continuity. The missions, in current order, are:

* Prowler of the Dark (TDP/Gold) (S): liberate a skull of paganic enchantment from an abandoned church, which is kept sealed and guarded by the Hammerites.
* Return to the City (The Dark Mod) (M): plunder the other side of the church complex to steal a pack of explosives. Patrols have been heightened because of the recent break-in. (This mission connects to the previous along the North/South axis - too bad I didn't have the time to let you revisit some old areas)
* Fiasco at Fauchard Street (The Dark Mod) (M): steal a collection of opals from the house of a wealthy usurer.
* Bad Debts (TMA) (XL): fallen on hard times, you take a job from a diminutive snitch to steal his letter of debt from Markus, a pawnshop owner/usurer. (You are here!)
* Disorientation (TMA) (XL): following the events in the previous mission, you attract the unwanted attentions of Lady Azamlarg, district warden and judge, and have to break into her palace to deter her from further assassination attempts. More rooftops and conspiracies.


Finally, here are a few screenshots:
