Kurshok 55 Report post Posted July 19, 2019 Are there any Amnesia fan missions whose plot, goals, and story is somewhat similar to the original Thief Trilogy's? I noticed the controls and textures are somewhat similar, and both seem to take place with a mishmash of medieval, electrical, and magical elements.

Paralytik 73 Report post Posted July 20, 2019 Amnesia does not have any loot mechanics though, apart from picking up keys and other objects to solve puzzles. Not really the same kind of game apart from the environments. Quote "My milkshake bringeth all ye gentlefolk to the yard. Verily 'tis better than thine, I would teach thee, but I must levy a fee."

Paralytik 73 Report post Posted July 25, 2019 There's a map editor, yes. And the modding community is pretty active, or at least was last time I checked.

stumpy 240 Report post Posted July 26, 2019 isn't the editor more like a descriptive text file, where you describe what you want and the compiler builds from that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paralytik 73 Report post Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) The HPL1 (or 2) engine/editor seems pretty tedious when it comes to editing readables and switches and stuff. The HPL3 engine used for SOMA is much more capable though, looks like DarkRadiant, but with updating lights, fog volumes (and loads of other stuff) and the option to compile and run maps straight in the editor. Tons of prefabs and models, many of them designed in a modular fashion. Here's a tutorial playlist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lR-4OlG4uuc&list=PLwJXvfVZGcJljQs1G-rAnipVf5SeuXawX&index=1 Edited July 31, 2019 by Paralytik Quote "My milkshake bringeth all ye gentlefolk to the yard.

Here is the most Thief-like custom story (explicitly a homage to Thief by the CS' author) that I know of: https://www.moddb.com/mods/painful-shadows https://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/thread-13122.html Quite an old CS (custom story, their equivalent of a basic FM), made in the early years of the modding community. You can certainly still play it, though, even with a patch-updated Amnesia. Compatibility should be OK, Frictional tend to prepare their software very well. P.S. Take a good look at what the author used as a thumbnail for the CS, in the announcement behind the second link. Told you he was inspired closely by Thief.
