I'm going to bed now. TDP/Gold and TMA are "done", TDS manual quotes and load-quotes are done. Over 90 pages, so far, using 10-pt. Arial. And that's skipping dummy/placeholder texts, descriptions of items seen in the stores, ALL transcriptions, redundant texts between TDP and Gold, redundant texts between "Casing the Joint" and "Masks", and training/hint texts. I expect this document to be around 200 pages, when I'm done. I'm using minimal formatting and minimal editing of my source files and not worrying about giving it a polish. Copy-pasting as fast as I can and for as long as I can between breaks. I guesstimate I've put in about 10 hours, cumulatively.:sweat:
I'm glad I've done this, as I've discovered a couple of things I hadn't realized, yet. Eventually, we'll see who knew what about the Thief Universe.

For posterity's sake.:D

I've got about 120 files left, starting with the "books" of Old Quarter. Thankfully, it won't approach the 200-page mark.

All right! Whew! DONE!:sweat:
Well, as done as I'm gonna be.:p
It includes all story texts, but without the 16000 transcriptions of the voice-files, there's a good portion missing...heh. In order to get the TDS portion done, I haven't re-ordered any of the files into common groups. They are in the order according to how they were arranged in the books folder. There are files I have not included.
THE TDS PORTION IS NOT ALWAYS ACCURATE due to having to clean out all the code. I highly recommend using the original files for accuracy.
If anyone wants to edit the file, go right ahead. If your edits improve upon the file, please share!:thumb:
But first:
What's the best way to make this 740Kb text file available to everybody here?:laff:

Well... ten books a post,
Or a file uploader, say, Mediafire......:rolleyes:
Seriously, Jtr7, you must've been blessed by the builder or something not getting mad working on this.....:thumb:
jtr7 on 19/8/2007 at 10:10
Getting mad? Naw. Going mad? Yep.
This worked out fine since work like this is necessary for the Encyclopaedia project. I found a bunch of stuff for our notes.:thumb: Well worth it, in my opinion. Spix may have another opinion when he checks his e-mail next. Haha! Otherwise, I may have done it anyway, just to be one, if not the first to put all four game texts into one document.:cheeky:
Thanks. I'll check Mediafire....

Oh yeah. It should be noted, for those who need it spelled out for them::cheeky:
MAJOR SPOILERS IN THAT DOCUMENT!!

Hmmm.... that should do it....:rolleyes:
