Remember that this mission, and by extension every mission made for the contest, is for
THIEF GOLD. As such, do not load it with Thief 2! It is highly recommended you do not use the Enhancement Pack and/or HD texture packs to play this mission. It is also recommended you uncheck all optional features TFix comes with if you update to the latest version of the full executable.

Nice mission ... all I need now is the Eye but IMHO I can't reach it without a rope arrow but I can't find any. :confused:
EDIT: Nevermind, made it with a big jump onto the Hammer statue. :ebil:
BTW, I even climbed on the wooden roof beams, but there was nothing to grab up there. :erg:
Looted 8346/9216 on plaing hard. :cool:

Hey, I'm stuck on how to the eye, can you give any hints? I've found 4 switches so far: 1 in the Kitchen, 1 in the chapel, 1 in the upstairs bedroom, and 1 in the room you open with the key.

@Psych0sis The fifth switch is not far from the room you opened with the key.

I've never been so divided in judgement with a fan mission like with this one. Great premise, and actually pretty well executed. City streets also awesome, very nice architecture...........but
interiors. I mean, the chapel is awesome, but other buildings are a bit lacking in terms of interior design and, lets say environmental storytelling. Many rooms are bit copy pasted, also in many rooms the AI was just standing back to the door waiting to get smack with a blackjack. but I see it like this. the mission is HUGE (took me 2 hours to complete, picrel)
SPOILER STATS > (

Was there any secrets? like button operated or lever? I've never encountered one :( )
SPOILER MAP > (

that it would be extremely difficult to detail everything out while you're on contest deadline with a map of this scale. I understand that.
Lack of rope was a bit sad, i love vertical exploration. I also wouldnt mind more readable for muh immersion :p But because of scale, awesome idea for anniversary fm, very enjoyable gameplay. I had a blast :D

Thanks for Playing, the goal for this Contest FM was to put the Difficult down and make it easy to play for everyone. ;)
i remember the first Thief 1 OM Lord Bafford, it was not too hard and easy to solve, i was 12 when i started with Dromed and Thief. :)

small hint
look for red hammer signs bigger hint
harder to spot levers are behind certain objects, close to the walls big spoiler
The last one is in the room which you have to open with the key (see the red hammer sign on the wall?)
