That sounds good, just PM what you've got so far, and what you are thinking about doing, what your goals are, etc. Sounds like fun, a different aspect to work on in the FM scene.

If you want one more, let me know. No biggie if you don't.

Welcome to the forum 6912, if you give it the time and patience The Dark Mod needs, you'll be in for many hours of fun. The Dark Mod and Thief are thinking games, unlike no other, and very few that are out there today. Hope you enjoy yourself, if you need help, you know where to find us.

Have you played Thief 2? There were female guards in that game.

For a guard definitely more clothing. I'll take the chainmail please.

Hey those are looking good! Nice work. Can't wait to see them in game. I'm working on those voices BTW.

Well, another post. I'm done for the night. I decided to try god mode, and no clip, I was finally able to snag the potion. I don't know if its intentional to make it difficult to grab, but it was difficult to grab it. Crouched did everything, Leatherman was watching too, he even said it seemed difficult. Flew out of there, took off god mode, and no clip, it must of broke that object. Drank the potion, nothing happened. I'll just have to try it again tomorrow. Good clean fun!

One more post, I feel really stupid for asking this but. Where is the potion? I am down by the Alchemist right now. This is a great FM, have had a lot of fun playing this one. So much to see and do, lots of details, job well done! Things just keep getting better and better with the FM's, thanks guys for all your hard work. I do see a potion by Any help would be appreciated. One thing I did, as a little experiment, I was hoping for better results. I was having fun with the arsenal in the inventory. I set down 3 mines, and lured some of the AI into the mines. I'd already taken out two of the skeleton's with holy water. I made enough noises with the mines, that brought down the guards. One was patrolling, searching for me, and yet he would do nothing to the Alchemist. I was so hoping he would. It was fun to try anyway. Damn those spiders are UGLY!

The patch worked just fine, thanks for that. Looking forward to playing later after my day is done.

Thank you very much, I will try that.

I'll have to check my log file later. But trying to load a save, it won't do it. This is another good FM, I'm really enjoying this one too! Every time I go to load a save, it won't finish, I bring it task manager, it crashes. I love that there are soo many places to go, and explore. Got the sewer key, loved the inventor, lots of goodies! So much I wanna see yet.

I've been playing a bit of catch up on the FM's. I have to say Sotha, I love your style. Anything you make, I'll play it. Keep doing what you are doing. You've got the whole ball of wax, in construction, story, ambients. I love your use of sounds BTW. Well done, and not just looping of the same sound. I do wish authors would get away from looping sounds, its annoying and does nothing for game play. I'd rather have silence than a looping sound. Your use of AI, the patrol patterns. Then the element of surprise, which is always a plus in my book. Its the little things that makes the difference from a good FM to a great FM. Keep up the good work. The ending of this, surprised the hell out of me, loved it. The FM's overall keep getting better and better. I find myself looking for more and more now. Its been a pleasure gentlemen. You need a tester, look me up. I've been testing over at TTLG for years now as well.

Ahh thanks for that tip, I'll do that. Ohh one thing I forgot to mention, the *math* book. I laughed at that one. The more he drank, the worse his answers were. I would recommend more use of ambients, not the same looping sound over and over. I ended up turning it down. Looping sounds drive me nuts after awhile.

I had fun with this one too. Got stuck at the beginning, by the wired cage, got stuck off to the side, I moved the crate, had to reload. The spiders, I couldn't believe I was able to. That just seemed a bit....odd. The room you where the bridge is in, you also used it in your screen shot. You like mushrooms don't you? lol. Seemed a few too many, it started to look like wallpaper, and not randomly grown shrooms. Good climbing, had to retrace my steps a couple of times, found the way to go. Could of been a bit tighter on the story end of things, overall, good job. I am guessing the strobe light room is a form of punishment? Or does the dude go in there himself, and that is what drives him mad. hah.

I am nearing the end of this wonderful FM, and having an absolute blast playing this. I'm a huge horror fan, this is so well done. Great atmosphere, the AI patrol was just right. Love the owl sounds outside, nice use of ambients. I did mainly a lot of ghosting up until I entered the room to get the sphere. Then I went to town on the haunts and the zombie. http://modetwo.net/users/brokenarts/glenham.jpg http://modetwo.net/users/brokenarts/glenham2.jpg I LOVE these screen shots. Especially the first one, that stance is awesome! I used a fire arrow to take down two of the haunts, one more with a mine, that one was lit up like a christmas tree. I had to put him out with a water arrow, he lit up again! lol. Last 3 AI I took out with holy water. I do hope you'll consider something for Halloween. Thanks for loads of fun.

I've done enough voice work over the years at TTLG. Let me know if you're interested. I've done my own high profile work as well.

I loved the little touch with the gargoyles. Very nice.

This is a must play, such a great city scape, attention to detail is top notch. Go play! Go!!

I hope you are kidding. You need a female voice, I'll gladly land a hand in that department, you guys can't do all the voices, female included. lol.

If you are still interested in Thievery, people still do play. Go register over at Black Cat, talk to the gents over there. http://forums.blackcatgames.com/

Awesome, can't wait to see them in all their glory.

Welcome to the forum! Glad you like the mod. Always great to have more people on board that can make things even better for TDM.

I'm sure you have. Most forums do!

Why he persists in this is nothing but troll behavior, he has nothing better to do. If he would of let people help him, he would of gotten his issue fixed. He blames the game, end of story. He wouldn't even let the possibility enter his feeble brain that the problem might be on his end. His arguments failed. He didn't want the help and just trashed mouthed everything. Thats his fault for not *getting it* and not accepting the help. I'm all for a good debate. This was not the case. I'd ban his ass if he were on Black Cat Games. I'm being honest, and not sure why you just don't ban his IP range, if he comes back, ban again. Ban his IP, its not worth keeping him around and disrupting the forum. What is the point of doing an admin approval? That doesn't make sense, and is too laid back in my opinion. I know you didn't ask for my opinion, but, you will have other shit heads that will eventually come in and disrupt things, and it bothers me to see this happen. I cannot help but, stand up and say something to help you guys and defend you for all the hard work you've done! Black cat has simple rules, you can't follow them, after a warning, you're gone. I've looked around on here, do you guys have an FAQ? I didn't find it. Sorry if I've missed it. These are black cats FAQ's, we tweaked these to make them simple, no long drawn out explanations. At least we have them, and do refer to them from time to time. As the word gets out about the dark mod, you guys will have more people and more problems to deal with. Something to think about it. No flames or personal attacks! While heated discussions and arguments are okay, avoid direct personal attacks on other forum members. There is a certain level of acceptable banter, but do not cross it -- respect the wishes of others and warnings from the moderators. No irrelevant posts! Do not post the same thing twice. Create threads in the appropriate forum. Do not post something completely unrelated to a topic of a thread. Threads often drift off topic, and this is fine. If the thread diverges into multiple unrelated topics, it will often be split by the moderators. Nothing illegal! Do not conduct illegal activity on these forums -- specifically software piracy. While laws vary in different countries and there are many legal gray areas, these forums are hosted in the United States and subject to its laws. Any court orders will be complied with. Forum Guidelines Listen to the moderators! When a moderator makes a request -- like not posting in a certain thread, or keeping a civil attitude -- follow it. Do not argue, if you have a concern, discuss it with private messages. Do not post asking for moderation! If you've found something you think needs attention from the moderators, report the post. Don't post requests for threads to be locked, messages to be deleted, or anything similar. It will be taken care of, do not add to it.

Oh lets not feed the trolls now, just ban his ass.
