Thanks for this mission, cardia1 and Independent Thief!
I'm still searching for some loot but I enjoyed it very much.
Hehe, and I know the submarine ;)
I really liked that sub from Keeper Investigations, special thanks to Gort for making it into a single model for easy use.:thumb: The lions share of the credit goes to Cardia1, he took a simple pagan village fm and rough story outline I had and spun it into something seriously amazing.:cool:

Oh my... the temple in this area is one of the creepiest structures I've seen in a Thief FM... or in just about every other game I've ever played.
I only completed the Expert objectives "technically", I've yet to go back and get about 1200 loot, but I'm looking forward to having to explore every nook and cranny of this place.
Where do all these images come from? I could recognize the Quake 1 logo, as well as a gargoyle mosaic from Blood. But the rest...
This one wins the "visual" award so far this year, and it's fun to play too because of the interesting puzzles, though I didn't like the one with the three holes.
Definetely a 9+ FM, this one.

You will use a rope arrow on the wood, and enter through a trap door. You will find your way then.

Hope that helped alittle, but I will clarify:
You must throw the headball over the wall, and the ball must go into each one of the holes. It will if you bounce it right. Once you have done that then you can access the room with the jumping key. In that room as you are standing directly in front of the the two bases where the key jumps to, go to your right and then to the left in the corner. You can see the wooden textures on the ceiling. Shoot a rope arrow up, and you will see a panel to frob. Go through that passage and you will drop into water. Swim up, and then you can frob the key.I had to be sure you understood.:)

Well done, cardia1 and Independent Thief.........The music is so wellplaced....
Quite agree. Lovely use of non Thief music, have heard a track from Gothic 3.

I recognized a bitmap inside the temple, on a wall - the area where you descend from the "light elevator" - it's taken from Heretic 2, Morcalavin to be precise :-) Ah, the memories..

Maybe I'm doing it wrong but what's the deal with the pyramid? I've tried every possible combination and it still won't open.

Jack Lee - reading the little plaques on the pyramid from the top down, it's N-S-W-E. Push the buttons in that order (according to your compass) & you should be able to enter the top of the pyramid.
I'm missing something obvious (or have a bug in my copy). I've used the "basketball" to open 3 grates & see a key floating above one or other of 2 pedestals - it disappears as I approach (no idea what people mean by "jumping key"). Found the 'False Key', rope-arrowed up, jumped into the water & followed the path back to the "basketball" room - now a statue blocks the way to where the disappearing keys were. I never saw a frobbable key anywhere.
What did I miss?
