Thieves Arsenal For Oblivion

Recommended Posts

Tip found on TTLG originally. I don't have Oblivion (maybe someday), but this certainly looks neat. :) Posted mainly because it has demo movies: http://elderscrolls.filefront.com/news/Thieves_Arsenal;29295

 

Seems they've already got some stuff working better (or at all) than it did in Deadly Shadows. <_<

 

Wtf if I was Eidos I'd either team up with these guys for Thief 4 or sue. It's a blatant ripoff of everything Thief created. :o

That's pretty sweet. I hope they make some custom maps to play through eventually (I guess they are if that's what Basso's quest is)!

 

As for getting sued, assuming they didn't use any TDS art/sound assets, the only thing that might get them in trouble IMO is using the name "Basso the Boxman." Otherwise, you can't really copyright the intellectual concept of a blackjack or a water arrow. That would be like saying a fighting game is a ripoff because it has an uppercut and a sidekick, which another fighting game already invented.

Hey, that's pretty cool. Makes me think I might even play Oblivion one day. :)

My games | Public Service Announcement: TDM is not set in the Thief universe. The city in which it takes place is not the City from Thief. The player character is not called Garrett. Any person who contradicts these facts will be subjected to disapproving stares.

      The FAQ wiki is almost a proper FAQ now. Probably need to spin-off a bunch of the "remedies" for playing older TDM versions into their own article.

      Was checking out old translation packs and decided to fire up TDM 1.07. Rightful Property with sub-20 FPS areas yay! ( same areas run at 180FPS with cranked eye candy on 2.12 )

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!
