Otherside Entertainment (a new gaming company featuring some looking glass studio members) just announce on their kick starter for their new Ultima game that Stephen Russell has signed on for voice acting!!! How awesome

This is a discussion for a forum topic, but...
1) Whatever Underworld ends up as, it will be a B title, not an AAA one.
2) Assume a generous 1.5 year dev cycle for both games plus half a year of preparations for the next KS. That's 3.5 years before it even becomes a possibility.
3) Thief just had a 100-million-dollars AAA game. It's unlikely anybody could pay for the license.
4) Modern engines have real problems with editing. TDM still does...
-
...BSP, which is more newbie-friendly.
5) We should instead convince the Otherside people to *join usssss now* and make a new Thiefy game with TDM as a base.

join us now

This might be a long shot but I cant seem to find it in the forum. Does the person who created the prefab of the two long rug runners with the textures matched up correctly still have that prefab?

@VanishedOne THANK YOU! oh god I was looking for so long for that haha.
-
It might have been me, I can make them up again but will need to see the location where you want them placed.
-
Bit of an odd question and google doesn't seem to find it either but did thief 3 have weather? like rain?
- Show previous comments 6 more
-
The Widow Moira mission had pretty awesome weather effects and mood. Try to replay this masterpiece! =)
-
I don't think there was any rain. Which is odd a little? The most prominent thing that comes to my mind is the first level of Thief 2X but that is a different game.
-
If the rain is as performance houngry as it is in idTech4, I can understand the decision to not use it.
-
Winter time certainly has its advantages... Prost! http://i.imgur.com/EZOpPjZ.png

Lecker!

Lol only you would comeup with something like that :-)
-
ahh. fine austrian beer . yummy. Slàinte!
-
Is there an ETA for 2.03 or 2.1 or whatever it will be yet?
-
Not quite yet. We're getting close to the pencilled-in roadmap date, so people with works in progress have started talking about what gets in, and that'll end up setting the date. We've already got plenty of goodies for 2.03 but there're other features close to being ready for testing.
-
Excellent news! Thanks
-
Thanks you for the answer.

Windows 10 actually looks pretty good! I wonder how TDM will run on it..

@lost_soul but they tried that already with Windows 8 and I don't think it turned out the best. I think its good to keep the desktop and tablet world separate. Just detect when a keyboard and mouse are plugged in and use normal desktop mode and if a touch screen is detected boot into the touch interface. That way everyone's happy
-
And of course having the option to switch between the two regardless of which peripherals are available shouldn't be too hard either. Regardless it shall be interesting to see what Microsoft turn out with the final build
-
could be true

Now that square enix are done with Thief they have moved onto bigger and greener pastures... https://i.imgur.com/D4DuRqP.jpg

Finally, something they're good at.

So who here that signed up for the Halloween contest is still going to do it? i'm going to attempt a 2 week speed build myself.

Ah, it is nice to see you getting back to mapping, Fieldmedic! Looking forward to see your work. They always do something differently.
-
Hehe, "different" is a good word to describe me
-
Playing Thief 2 again with the HD texture mod, what a fantastic job they did! Also it made me realize how closed in games are now days, T2 has beautiful open non-linear levels that are still able to narrate a fantastic story.

That link didn't work? Is there a new Tafferpatcher that the link works for as well? The one at TTLG doesn't work? What all is needed to get TGold and T2 to work on a WIN7 machine? Thanks
-
Link for "Thief 2 HD Texture Mod" works fine.

Thanks Vae

so I guess Thief (2014) is effectively dead now. EM has no DLC planned, obviously no mod tools so its all over for that ride it seems. http://i.imgur.com/K8cL3Fz.jpg

With no DLC, they must not think much of it either. Too bad. I rather like it. I can't get too much Thief.
-
So much potential wasted. Really taffin' sad.
-
It was dead like dogp** just in the mom it was released :-) / gameplay, grafix, sounds .... :-P / not worth the money (~15€)
-
You know whats even better than TDM? Buttered oven fresh baguettes dipped into a nice warm bowl of chili con carne.. mmm good!

Yum.
-
LOL, or changed the CCC for Heinz Backed beans.
-
Yeah, that's real good stuff. Of course, the real question is: do beans belong in chili? .)

If we have re-capture & the random anti-spammer question on the forum registration form how come we keep getting spam bots?
- Show previous comments 2 more

"NOTHING is beyond the infinite power of the entity!"...
In all seriousness, some spammers actually sit there and solve those things. When one is solved, it can be added to a database and all new encountered ones can be compared to the known existing solutions for a match automatically.

(If nobody gets it, my above reference is to The Nameless Mod)

Hey, I got it! :V

Wolfenstein surprisingly has a few similarities to Thief. Most buildings having multiple entrance points, there are places to crawl and climb to sneak around, readables, guard patrols you can sneak around and pick off and secrets to discover everywhere. Very good ambient music and graphics as well. It feels a bit like a FPS MGS at times

There is not that much censoring. The swastika is gone and the enemies are not called nazis. This won't change the experience much. Although I agree that I hate the way we are getting infantilized in germany. It's for adults only anyway, so what.
-
It doesn't change the gameplay at all but I still hate these kinds of changes on principle. But the bigger problem is that we also only get the german voice overs and these are nearly always terrible.
-
Playing this now. Had to turn off SBX surround and use stereo so the game audio wasn't screwed up. Apparently doesn't detect 5.1? Also, no warning to finish obj prior to leaving when you know you'll be back to the area. Bummer. Has issues if you knew about in advance would be better. Game is ok. Good shooter wise.
-
Wow the new Wolfenstein weighs in at 40gb! Taking a while to download even on my fiber connection.

Just cancelled my gym membership. I feel bad but I would rather do workouts from home and avoid the cheap but hidden costs of a gym contract.

Free gym membership: pick a gym, run there and back.

Take a years gym membership, buy a bicycle, and get out and see the countryside.

Bike or hike + PX90 = Superior fitness at reduced cost.

So what new FM's lay on the horizon for TDM?
-
My WIP. Will be done prolly before next xmas. A new protagonist and AI character will be introduced. And it will have some gas mines. Aand it's gonna be around the size of Beleaguered Fence. Aaand I try to focus on the mapping now and avoid silly side projects.
-
Can't wait Sotha!
-
I would recommend against waiting for it. Progress is really... s l o w.

The actual loading times are really fast even on my ye olde HDD (5 - 15 seconds). I could imagine them being a breeze on an SSD.

unless loading is tied to framerate ala... consoles

I'm having a blast playing Thief... I'm suffering from sleep-deprivation, haha!

Just completed a 12 hour straight DR session!!! I can see brushes, patches and entities when I close my eyes!

Sounds like the perfect recipe for burnout to me. 4 hours at most sounds like a perfectly large DR session to. There's more to life than TDM. Blasphemy I know.
-
Yep, just be careful not to burn out.
-
Oh my friends I am FAR from burning out I couldn't stop because I was having so much fun. And yes I'm crazy

Nope, it's really fun actually. And the graphics look great!

i'm not a believer. rumor has it they are pandering to all demographics, both hardcore and casual. recipe for disaster.

its 50 quid, dont know what that is in euro's or dollars, and uses 60GB on disk.
