Just wondering what the most we know about Thief 2 Gold is? All I know is that it was in production when LGS went under, but does anyone know what missions were going to be added or at what point in the game, or any other info about it?

Damn. I wonder if anyone could somehow salvage what they had built... I doubt it, but I wonder if it is still buried deep within the Eidos archives...
Looks like we're gonna have to build them ourselves for another "unofficial expansion"

I was just thinking that would be a very interesting fan project. Make 3 fan missions loosely based on the few scraps of knowledge we have on what they would have been about, and fix what can be fixed in the OMs, put a few extra bits in like a couple of readables or something in the OMs relating to the FMs, and make any relevant changes (in the same way as putting the Hand Brotherhood in the Lost City, but preferably less "meddle-y" than this), then release it as a pack.
Hmm, in fact, I think this is such a good idea, that this will be my next project, after the FM I'm working on at the mo is finished. I'll have a think about the best way to do it...

I think "meddlesome" is the word you want.

"Pirate Ship"? "Orphanage"? Sounds to me like they used these ideas for T3 instead.

A shame that we will not see a Thief 2 Gold. It's a bit late in time for it to be released. :( I think Thief 2 needed an undead mission, because the game felt a bit "too easy" without an entire mission deicated to haunts and zoblies the like.
Hey! What if we email someone at Eidos about Thief 2 Gold? Surely if we "pressurised" them into the details, then we will get something out of it.
But then again, maybe they have "eliminated/" destroyed any unreleased Thief related stuff, seeing as Eidos won't find any use in Thief 2 Gold :(

bloody Eidos... :mad: I still say we should pressure them to release the Dark Engine source to the general public. I wanna fuck with the Dark Engine!! :laff:
grrrr..........

I've always thought it would be cool if several FM authors got together to create a fan version of T2 Gold. I always wanted to take a shot at the necromancers castle. nicked, maybe we should talk sometime. ;)

The timing for this thread in serendipitous. This is actually something we've been dealing with behind the scenes for a while now.
Well, it's done. Thief 2 Gold missions. Go here to download them:
