T3 FM: Crystal Clear Conscience Feb. 28/06

Hi there,

I finished my first FM for TDS, "Crystal Clear Conscience". It should be visible on thiefmissions.com soon, but if you want to grab it now, here's the link:

I called it v. 0.9 beta, because only I did some testing and I guess there are still some bugs to be found ;)

I'm reticent about hosting public betas of large files. Can someone please at least run through this and let me know how it goes before I add it to thiefmissions?

Folks, you need to have your missions properly tested by at least a couple of people before you submit them for public release. This is especially important with T3 missions since they're so needlessly large. (This one is about 65MB.)

DL´ing now. I will play it and report problems here.
Thanks a lot, Judith. Your FM is very welcome :D.

As i see now, after playing for 15 minutes, running through this is NOT possible. :sweat:

Getting caught will fail the mission and you have to ghost through a populated marketplace. It´s not easy at all.

From what i saw ´til now, this is a very nicely done mission. :thumb:
OK. Back to marketplace. Need to find some keys....:sly:

Could someone host it somewhere other than rapidshare? Stupid BT broadband have now brought in transparent proxies and downloading via rapidshare is just not possible any more.

(http://www.megaupload.com) http://www.megaupload.com works despite their annoying advert popups.

Not that I will be able to get time to do much with it yet.

Here's another mirror, packed in self-extracting exe ('a bit' smaller)

I know, there are some restrictions, you can't just blow the whole marketplace up and leave ;) Actually I can't complete my own mission on expert, though I believe it's possible... Maybe once I've learnt how to decrease the number of AI's per difficulty level (in this case, "the customers"), the gameplay will be more balanced here.

Finished it with 100% loot. Yeah. :cheeky:
Found no problems, had only a slowdown in framerate inside a passage in the unterground. But 2 steps away, everything went smooth again.
This is a short, but very entertaining mission. Actually, you are allowed to get caught several times, but i wasted most of them without knowing this limit.
But to be forced to ghost only raised the suspense :ebil:

Congratulations to Judith. Good work. :thumb:

UliB, where is the stone? :) I am in the park and have no objective ticked off...

Stay away from the N>E corner untill you are done or you will fail the mission.
I did a quick runthrough and found out that way. There is a corner wall and boxes, if you go there the mission will end even if you havent found a peso yet.

Thank you for the T3 mission Judith :)

Nevermind what I said above. I was failing because of the restrictions..it is not a bug. Sorry

When i entered the park, i saw a scripted scene, where someone killed all others an ran away. In the middle of the park, on a bench, is a important note left. Read that note.

I was unable to finish until i read a note (in the park).
