Thief fan missions and campaigns

List of recomended Fan Missions:

Also, any idea what I need to get to have water that looks like this?

I tried the T(2)Fix enhanced water option and it looks a lot worse.

If you can't see through the surface, you're better off with vanilla.

 

[Mikeal]

Any tips/tutorials on starting with Dromed?

 

[nicked]

Yeah, the installation instructions at least are slightly out of date now. I've been meaning to go through and update it. Might be something I can look at over the Christmas break.

 

[Andronovo]

What graphical upgrades do y'all suggest for playing the main Thief Gold campaign? I mainly just want to make everything less crusty without disturbing the vanilla experience.

 

[Mikeal]

No mods.

 

[Icewater]

HD Mod.

Spoiler

u mad

 

[Melan]

Disabling texture filtering is the only mod you ever need.

 

[Zenith]

Disabling texture filtering is the only mod you ever need.

Any way to do this without affecting the lightmaps?

 

[Andronovo]

Oh God the HD mod makes things look even MORE crusty. The zombies look like they're made out of dirty clay.

Don't get me wrong, I think you purist faggots are retarded. There's nothing wrong with upgrading an old game with new textures, AS LONG AS THEY DON'T FUCKING SUCK.

But there IS something wrong with name-calling just because you disagree with them.

Shut up faggot. All your opinions are objectively wrong.



In all seriousness, why does no one make a Thief Gold texture pack that just upgrades the texture resolution without making really shitty changes like massive oversaturation?

 

[Yandros]

Thief Gold ESRGAN Texture Pack is just an algorithmic resolution upgrade of the original textures.

It looks like that's what I'm going to have to use. It looks a little weird and scummy though.

Eww, I bet you play your SNES games without filtering too.

 

[Unkillable Cat]

It is a Work In Progress, it may get better in the future.

And I second those who think you're being an asshole for no reason. The "problem" with Taffers like us is that we're all quite mature, we can debate and argue (almost) all things without losing our cool. Right now you're not. But it's a New Year, it's a New Dawn, so lighten up and be reasonable.

I'm going to call you a faggot now. And I'm going to keep calling you or anyone else who pitches a fit a faggot until you stop taking me seriously. Really, who gets worked up about banter on the internet?

I hope and pray that the day comes when someone with good taste makes a COMPLETE Thief Gold texture pack. I doubt that person will be me though, I'm far too lazy.

 

[Zenith]

Only on newdark 1.26+. In cam_ext.cfg, set tex_filter_mode to 0 and comment out tex_filter_trilinear. Leave all of the options that are prefixed with lm_ alone because those are the ones that have to do with lightmaps.

Guess I should be reading the patch notes after all. Thanks!

Are there any FMs like Compulsory Egress? I haven't been able to find any they do that good of a job with the sprawling town and exploration feel.

Sure, you can try (with no particular order) for thief2:

• A short night's work
• Behind closed doors
• Being thief
• Bones episodes 1: the old quarter
• Cracks in the glass (a coup de maitre for a first mission)
  
• Morbid curiosity
• Disorientation
• Home sweet home
• L'Arsene (Emilie Victor 1)
• Shadow plans
• A night in Rocksburg (1 and 2)
• Waterfront racket

For thief1:

• Most missions from the excellent Skacky and Melan (Between these dark walls, Endless rain, Rose garden...)
• Some of the 20 years anniversary context: The Whistling of the gears, The sound of a burrick in a room, The burning bedlam, Lost among the forsaken (ruins)

 

[forumvisitor#451]

Are there any Thief FMs like The Swing in The Dark Mod where you just jump, run around and mantle without any actual gameplay? Counter Strike's Jump or Surf maps come to mind... anything like that in Thief?

Edit: Yes something like this haha -

 

[Andronovo]

What FM's do the best FMs at nailing the pagan asthetic? They're a lot that have a little bit of paganism sprinkled around, but I haven't seen many that go all out with it.

[Mikeal]

Why sudden leap for T:TDP/T:G?

 

[Icewater]

That feel when still playing Thief in 2020, partly because it's really damn good, but more so because nothing wholly better than it has ever been made despite it having been over 20 years since the original release.

 

[Lyric Suite]

There's several dozens of games from that period you could easily say the same about. Fucking decline.
