Thief: Deadly Shadows 20th Anniversary Contest - May 25, 2023

If you're celebrating the 20th anniversary of T3 it would seem a bit odd not to allow a T3 entry.

Don't worry though it is highly unlikely there will be many if any T3 missions, not only is the editor even more of a nightmare to work with than Dromed, Savar has retired (well he did say Shadows of Death was his last ever mission) and I doubt if Adsk1 would enter the contest. As for seeing a T3 mission from a newbie, I wish them the best of luck as there is hardly any T3 editing advise out there with all the authors from 20 years ago having moved on.

Can't wait to see and play what comes down the pipe for this contest! Here's hoping some T3 missions are added in. I know the editor is a bit finicky to work with, but it wouldn't feel like a T3 contest without some T3 submissions.

i am hoping for storylines that are post thief 3 in thief 2 newdark fan mission

also would be nice to get a storyline about artemus as he died in thief 3 and he was really the mentor of garrett and should never be forgotten

also a story line about the merlock should be a must as everyone loved them in thief 3 and all true thief fan freed the one in that tiny jail

also a storyline showing the golden child post thief 2 = main enemy in thief 4 if it would have came out

Fixed the broken link to the DromEd Startpack, thanks to m_h for uploading it. The link in the OP is a Google Drive mirror.

Hope ya'll amazing Fan Mission makers can make something fantastic, I can't wait! I always love these contests, even the "bad" (or poorly voted) ones have a charm.

Here is a sound library I personally made. This is meant for folks that are designing new fan missions. If this will help some of you, feel free to use them.

Celebrating the anniversairy of T3 but not including T3 missions just because you dislike it and don't want to reinstall it? That must be the dumbest thing I've read in months.

Super looking forward to this contest and A very big thank you very much to the organizers! The hard work is really appreciated!
I have not yet played any T3 fanmission yet, but I'll definitely try them out one day when I managed to get through all of the T1 and T2 ones :)

I got an important question regarding this. What if i dont use any of the thief games or content from them, but code my own game with gameplay and art? Would that be considered an entry? Since the range of games is so broad.

Thanks for creating this pack fella.
