/z may have a higher compression ratio, but has a solid archive structure and is not very suitable for FMs.
This was discussed elsewhere but I don't remember where atm.
To display a readme file, you have to decompress the whole archive to memory.
You may be thinking of the TFMM loader thread, it was discussed there.
But during that discussion it turned out that it
is possible to add a separate compression block for readmes etc. in a 7z archive, but a small tool would need to be made for that purpose.

Ah, well I see. How about other compression formats though?
Nanozip being one.
IMHO the only one that should be considered is (
http://freearc.org/) FreeArc - it's already supported by ModernLoader, and it's
very efficient. And it's open source, as far as I can see, NanoZip isn't?

epithumia,
I just wanted to say thanks for your work on the Cheap Thief Missions site all these years. I'm getting back into Thief FMs now that I've got T1&2 working on my current operating system and your site is as great a resource as ever.

Hmmm...
I think 4 additions (EvilThievery, UnknownDanger, Precious, NightOfTheTrickster) and 1 update (KingsAndQueens v3.0.3) are missing in order to wrap up 2012. ;)
Anyway : Thanks for your work epithumia and joyful holidays ! :thumb:

I've been basically keeping up with things for a while now, and put together enough time to actually get caught up with the few things I'd missed since December. As far as I can tell, everything mentioned previously in this thread has been taken care of.
gnartsch, my man, thanks for your assistance. There are still a few things which you list that I'm pretty sure are already taken care of; in fact, when I check all of the remaining items on your list, they all appear to be there except for the TDM stuff (which honestly I probably just won't host, because it's not really of use to Dark Mod players due to the internal download system which can't use thiefmissions anyway) and the Kings and Queens mission, which I and all of the other sites have been asked not to host. Maybe there are a few ttlg.de links not in there yet; I still need to look those up.
Eventually, and with a little luck, I'll be able to add some of the other things I've talked about adding. We'll just have to see.
Edit: And I added in ttlg.de links for the missing recent missions. I think that pretty much does it for links to that forum unless someone does some deep digging.

Thanks a lot ! :thumb:
I just did my homework and doublechecked my list - and I removed those missions.
Added 2 more though.
Please update 'SergeBank' by masterthief. The version availlable via the regular never worked for me. You just get a black screen and can not play it. The older version availlable via the 'Inbox' link works fine, though. (Check the link in the list)
Oh, and if you want, Prenos T2 conversion of Jan Viteks T1 'Prisoners Revenge' would be nice to have.
