Thief: DP OM's in Thief 2? Multiplayer purposes

Hi,

I saw a video today of a bunch of guys playing the first mission of Thief: The Dark Project in Multiplayer, which got me wondering how did they do it? How do you import those missions to the Thief 2 engine?

Thanks in advance!

I thought someone ported Bafford to T2 at some point years ago. I can't find it on Thiefmissions, but that's not surprising as epithumia generally didn't host those due to their questionable legality.

You can get them on Belboz's site:

Yes that's awesome :) Just what I was looking for. Thanks!

Is it easy to port the rest of the missions? Can I just open the mission in Thief 2's Dromed and re-save it? I realize it's not 100% legal so I won't upload them online

No, it's a lot more work than that. For one thing, none of the mission-specific T1 scripts work in T2, so you have to be able to recreate those things using different scripts. Also, you have to use OldDark Dromed since anything saved by NewDark will not be MP compatible (unless something has changed).
