I'm pleased to announce my new Thief 2 fan mission,
Legacy of Knoss.

https://nickdablin.files.wordpress.com/2022/11/main_1.pngThis is a loose sequel to my Thief 1 Anniversary Contest mission Catacombs of Knoss, but it is not necessary to have played that mission to play this one.
Following a clue from the necromancer Knoss's grimoire, Garrett finds himself in the gloomy district of Greytwist Murking for an appointment with a shady antiques dealer...

https://nickdablin.files.wordpress.com/2022/11/dump211.pngNotes: - This mission has been designed to have a classic Thief look. It is highly recommended to disable all mods and texture packs so as not to clash with the intended experience.
- Requires New Dark version 1.27 or higher.
- New mantle should be turned ON. It should be set automatically by fm.cfg - don't turn it off as you might get stuck.
- You can probably climb where you're not supposed to if you really try.
- Sometimes the AIs can get stuck here and there. I've caught a few of these, but it's Dark Engine, you can't catch 'em all.
- There are a number of plot-related conversations in the mission. I have tried to make these as foolproof as possible, but be warned that the Dark engine is not good at saving and loading during conversations. I would advise that you avoid saving and loading during any conversations just in case you soft-lock yourself.
- Plot-relevant conversations are subtitled. Enable subtitles in your cam_ext.cfg to see them.
- The mission is currently English-only; if you're interested in translating, please drop me a message.
v1.1 Changes:
- Fixed a bug where the "Don't kill anyone" objective could fail near the mission end.
- Fixed the placement of a piece of loot.
- Fixed a piece of loot that could never be frobbed, meaning the total loot count was wrong.

Hey nicked I am having trouble saving and loading?? I tried to do a quick save and it failed I then tried a hard save and that also failed?? any ideas why? I am using angelloader and have turned all mods off. Fantastic mission so far but I quit because of the saving issue. I will try turning some of the mods back on to see if that will help. I don't think I saved during a conversation but I will restart and let you know.
Update: I got completely out of game and got back in and my saves are working!!
