Thief: DS. Mods? - by The Drunken Orc

Hi folks,
I've been out of the Thief loop for a good, long time... but lately have had a hankering to get back into Garrett's shoes, and since I never did finish Thief: DS (work ate my life), I figure that would be a good place to jump back in.
Now... what happened while I was gone? :D
Presumably, all sorts of fun mods have appeared to make my experience better, right? I've noticed by way of thief-thecircle.com that a Thief 3 mission editor seems to finally have been released... but there don't appear to be any fan missions. Was this a recent development?
So, if anybody could point out some of the better user-made content out there, and perhaps tell me where it could be found and why I desperately need it, it'd be very much appreciated.

You can find Thief 3 Fan Missions and the editor and player programs at ShadowdarkKeep.com :)

Hey there Komag. :) I was wondering if you could provide a link to the enhanced editor and Minimalist on ShadowdarkKeep? I'm beginning to feel like Minimalist and EnhancEd are the black sheep of the Thief community. ;) I was doing a search to see if any of the free hosting sites had minimalist and I couldn't find one place that had it. My personal site took an incredible hit last month, I had over 10,000 downloads of the Minimalist Project. Put me way over my allowed monthly bandwidth.

well, they told you "where"... now as to the "why" : :bored: :confused: :idea: :cool: :nono: :o :laff: :thumb:
did that answer your question? (I originally constructed a masterpiece and had to severly revise it b/c of the 8 images max rule... oh well.)

Well.. uh... it ends in a happy thumbs-up smiley, so I assume that's a "Yes, go get this."
Right?
I'd also be interested to know where I could find Minimalist. Searching the net has not been particularly fruitful.
The tweak guide is helpful (I'd especially recommend the tweak that fixes it so walking is your default speed, and running is a shift-toggle... I mean, good lord! What were they thinking? :eek: )

yes, it's a positive message. Go get 'em.
As to the movement: it's also easy to modify the settings so that you can have T2 style key layout, with walk as the 5 on the number pad and 8 as run. That's nice.
Minimalist project is on Fileshack now, I think, check out the T3 editing forum, there is a recent message about it
