Well, as I was saying, I am hoping they do someones voice into the mod. It doesn't have to be Garrett, but someone similar, or it becomes much less like Thief, and more of a first person shooter set into a Thief type theme. It was one of the things that set Thief apart I thought. It wasn't your average 1st person shooter. It had a personality to it, with Garrett relaying his thoughts and insite into the game. Thief wasn't about killing. It was about stealth and thieving. Hearing Garrett was that one thing that gave ther series impact, character and emotion. Just my 2 cents on the whole thing. I think The Dark Mod will still be outstanding, but the main characters voice would be a feature certainly worth implimenting.

@ Baggcog........... YOU DA MAN! Yeah, Spee Tree is what they used (fo Oblivian) I believe. You modded something better, then don't let me tell you what to do then. I'm just your average "village idiot". I see something, or read into something and think "yeah, that would be pretty cool."

Yeah, as I found out. D3 is more suited for Thief. I do like the pretty landscapes though. Will the Dark Mod have a weather engine? Just another thought. I don't want to keep you guys away from your valuable time.

I wasn't suggesting we stop and change it. From what I've seen so far,it looks excellent! If your right about the D3 engine, I would say definately keep the D3 engine. Yeah, releasing the source code could do wonders. Hey NH, what about the audio trickery stuff I made pasts post about. Don't give me any speciffics, but is that going to happen? Are you guys invovled with audio environmental work? And, if there is no Garrett, is there a new charactor with a conscious we can hear? My point was it was a haunting presence to hear Garretts thoughts. Will there be another charactor based in that way? Thanks for your answers in advance.

Hey NH, It's been a while! Yeah, right to this and all that. Kinda washes out everything doesn't it? Anyway, good to see you still hangen. I know you guys are well into the D3 engine, but the Oblivion engine...... WOW!!!!!! Spee Tree, weather effects, pretty cool. I don't know if you guys have considered that engine, but D3 is getting pretty old. From what I've seen for the pics though. It looks real good. Can't wait.

Thanks for the reply guys. I actually sound a lot like garrett. I remember throwing out his one liners at work, when someone at work recognized the "one liner" from Thief TDP and said "that souded like Garrett!" Anyway, I'm sure I can do some voice dubs if anyone is interested. If your going in a different direction, then I undertsand. I would just love to have Garrett back though.

Fantastic progress guys (and girls if there are any on the team!) I came here to find everything has changed. I had to re-reg. again. Oh well. I noticed a sample progress scratch list. On that list, there was "flags" for sound/environment triggers. Please tell me, that you guys are creating an audio environment that will shock the hell out of me!!! Build it up for X-fi if you could. It all goes back to what reminds me about Thief 3 and "The Craddle" episode. Walking up the stairs was a scary thing. I am hoping for a lot more audio trickery. That was a fantasic trick they did for #3. Need more of that. Nothing like running around in a haunted insane assylum! AWSOME!!! Also, is the voice of "Garrett" going to return? I miss that guy. His concious haunts the game in a very personal way. Please find some way for his return. Looking forward to this.......................
