Great vexd! Merrick's Cellar is added to the list (see the post above yours). It's at place 46.

Lovely work btw.

While I was working on the Fan Mission section of the Dark Wiki today, I thought:

What about incorporating this list into the (http://thief.wikia.com/wiki/Thief:_The_Dark_Wiki) Thief wiki?

There exist the following categories and pages:
(http://thief.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Fan_Missions) Fan Mission Overview
(http://thief.wikia.com/wiki/FM:TG_List) List of all T1/TG missions
(http://thief.wikia.com/wiki/FM:T2_List) List of all T2 missions
(http://thief.wikia.com/wiki/FM:TDS_List) List of all TDS missions
(http://thief.wikia.com/wiki/FM:TDM_List) List of all TDM missions
...and of course entries for the actual missions, mostly still a "work in progress".

The Phantom:
What do you think about adding your list to the wiki and edit it over there?
The advantages would be (from my point of view):

1. "FM authors"
Some FM authors already do have wiki pages + discussion pages + a blog on the wiki.
You could link them directly and use their pages / blogs for gathering information about updates / current progress etc.

2. "Released missions"
You can link missions that have been released by a certain author, so others know what to expect etc. since there are already wiki entries for the missions, including screenshots, download links and so on.

3. "Everyone can edit the list"
If you're on vacation etc., the list can still be edited by other people. FM authors could add their mission too, which results in less work for you ;)

Interesting idea, intruder. These are definitely advantages although I can think of a few drawbacks as well, like would there be request and sufficient input from authors, and shall people who check the list also find there way to the wiki.

But i'm willing to give it a shot. Seems like there's a tutorial on how to post text and such.

Any beta testers care to share info on how close The Black Frog is to release? Haven't heard anything on it in quite some time and it went into beta a while ago. I asked about a month ago and no one responded.

Really looking forward to it :D

I'm looking forward to The Black Frog as well. I love Gaetane's work. Hope it's almost ready.

We're still testing, translating, improving voices and so on.
That'll take another month (at least)

Thanx for spotting that, gnarsch - hadn't seen the Epilogue screens before: WOW....again!

Thanks gnartsch! I've updated Sensut's profile with the latest info.

He also updated his Dracula campaign to v1.3 just a few days ago :thumb:. (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123968&p=1789251&viewfull=1#post1789251) Clicky. I really admire this dedication to his campaigns.

Indeed some beautiful projects on the horizon, Sticky Fingers. Hope to play some of them this summer.
Too bad FM development takes much longer these days then in the early days of dromEd. Guess that's the price we taffers must pay for fancier graphics and more scripted events :).
