Finished last night with around 3100/3900 loot. Skacky, thank you for making what I consider one of the best T1 missions to date! It looks better than most OMs and plays a lot like one. Like shadows said, there is a lot of thought and care put into the design and I hope you continue and make more missions like this.

Really fun mission, Skacky! I always forget how much I like the atmosphere of Thief Gold, it's so dark and gritty- I love it! It's too bad though that more people don't play it; I guarantee if this was a T2 mission this thread would be 8 pages long by now.
As many have said, this reminded me a lot of "Disorientation". There's something to find EVERYWHERE, and I love how we get a small taste of all the usual Thief environments (city, sewer, cave, mansion). This was really awesome, MORE PLS. :thumb:

Glad you enjoyed the mission. :D
As for another FM, well, time will tell. I definitely have some plans for new missions (again in that gritty T1 feel), but I'll need to find some free time.
Some hints on hard-to-find loot pieces:
- Check the windowsills and little carved pieces of architecture, you never know
- Check the beams, people like to put stuff on the beams
- Check the indoor lights, taffers who have played Walking the Edge will know what I mean :p

I finished 876 short of all loot, but enjoyed ghosting the mission very much. :thumb:
I've only got one question:
Is it possible to get inside the Hammerite priory? I've already robbed their warehouse but I just can't seem to find a way inside their priory next to St. Jenel Plaza.

Intruder: You cannot enter the Hammer priory, sadly. I wanted to have some catacombs at one point but didn't make them.

When I found my first chandelier, I was thinking, "They had loot in Walking the Edge, didn't they." Then: "But this isn't Walking the Edge, so we have no need to worry." Well... :p

A really fun mission. More authors should make missions of this type; nothing fancy, all stock resources, but with top-notch game play. Thanks.

Excellent! I was wondering when this would be released! Thanks skacky.

Nothing fancy? This puts most first-time FM makers to shame. :cheeky:
But to be serious, I know that skacky has some background experience to back up this FM, so maybe I'm being too unfair. Overall, it was an awesome mission. I felt it was very lovely for a TG FM, when most people just try and mimic the wonky proportions of the OMs.
One of my favorites, this year... No wait, my favorite of this year, thus far! :D

You understood me wrong. I meant no fancy hi-res textures or new objects. Just the good old Thief look using the stock resources. I meant is as a compliment.
