You have to have Dromed installed to fix it. Since most FM players don't use Dromed, it would be much easier to send a fixed ZIP to Jason. Jason, I'll mail you the fixed ZIP I made; I'll understand if you choose not to offer it for download though, since I haven't contacted the author for permission to do so.
Personally, I found this mission extremely difficult due to the lack of equipment (a single broadhead!) and prodigious lighting, and haven't gotten very far in it. That is definitely one of the biggest book collections I've ever seen, though! :cheeky:

Please send it to me; in the meantime, I'll try to get permission. Has anyone mailed the author about this yet?
BTW, I just checked the copyright and it doesn't allow any distribution of the mission at all:
This level is (c) by Meshpit, 01 jan 2004.
This level was not made and is not supported by Looking Glass Studios or
Eidos Interactive.
Obviously there's some implied distribution right because the mission was sent to TTLG for distribution, but I'm concerned that I have no right to distribute it from thiefmissions.com. Crap. I'm not sure what to do.

Well, email bounces. I guess only the TTLG folks know who this person is, unless the file just magically appeared one day.

I was going to email him/her as soon as I knew for sure how to fix it, but if the email is bouncing ...

I found another address for Meshpit and was able to contact him (or perhaps her) and receive permission to distribute the mission. The fixed version that Yandros made is up at (

Thanks again to Meshpit for making the mission and Yandros for his tweaks.

Thanks, epithumia & Yandros! I didn't get around to trying this until this afternoon so I got to use the corrected version. I didn't have to find a way out for some reason, even though I was playing on Expert, though I know where it is. I found over 3000 loot but not the total listed as available. I found 3120 so I'm still 130g. short of the total available.
It's a very difficult mission due to the lack of equipment and that makes it a bit frustrating in places. Still, for the most part, it was fun to play.

I think the most fun I had with it was hitting the delete key... ;)
