I finished this mission 2 days ago (close to morning) in expert difficulty. I am inpressed by the design. It's a good inspiration I think for beginner mappers. Especially the puzzally elements.

Spoiler

I have not found the loose brick. I might have to come back sometime. I did manage to rob the crown without the guards noticing. It took me a while to figure the guards standing still nearby don't see you robbing the crown, so you can rob it first and afterwards place the fake crown. I needed to take out one torch for that.

I noticed some of the guards have a strange walking patter sometimes in the first hallway around a pillar. Also there is the strange situation (mentioned before in a seperate thread) that a guard can look through a pillar and see you.

I agree. This is one of the early mansion heist missions I admire a lot. Mapping techniques and available tools have advanced since then but good design is lasting.

Um, is this mission no longer available for download?  I didn't find it in the TDM download list.

It's "Thief's Den 2: Chalice of Kings"

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
