Hello everybody! Never say die! I have done it! hope that you'll like it.
TYPE: Action and Infiltration
Story:
You won't play Garrett in this mission, but an old thief or a great sergeant. The Scene take place in the thieves's guild from Thief Gold. You'll have a fight between Truart's Soldiers and Downwinders.
Notice that you'll have four kind of thieves: Donal's & Magrin's Men, Rueben's & Thom's Men.
And Neutral Quarter and Ex-Buggar. Actually, after Garrett's come in, bosses was furious, and decide to make a war tension in the guild, sometimes bloody, but few thieves don't share this point of view, then, they have done their own team, Neutral for people who want no fights, no master. And Ex-buggars, peniless thieves who have done an organisation, lead by their champion Lars, an ancient sewer's worker, clever and strong.
Make the good choice and select the right team.
WHY DID I CHOICE THIS MISSION
I have choose this one, because first, I know that few people havn't discover yet thief Gold, And I want them to know how it is. Twice, I love this map, huge, dark. perfect for an action scene. And I'll see action on it. And when i reconize overlord's fancy in the cut-scene, mission 2 of thief II, and the conversation about this raid between militiamen, I had the flash. Why not? I have think that It would be original to make an historical mission in the city.
READ THIS:
The read-me is not very updated about bugs, because the mission is huge and I havn't test everythings. So, in the thief version if the conversation between Magrin, Donal and Rueben won't be activated, stay in front of Magrin and wait. In fact, bosses are alerted but they don't investigate, when they'll be calm, they'll come back. About 20 second to wait for me.
If you have trouble or question just tell me it, I'll do if I can do something.
And Buddies: Cardia, Random, MasterThief, Yandros: ManyThanks.
To bad, I was too busy to send you the map for beta-test.
Now let's play:
NEW: VERSION 3
You can win without crashes. (In Xp, my windows 7 doesn't work so I don't know if it is ok on it).
Cop version is ok
Thief version too.
You can't get an objective from the version that you don't play.
Please Read the read-me with caution or you won't understand few things in game.
Good luck

Ureka...... The motherload....
It's nice to see another mission from you, FireMage! Congratulations on the release!Good luck in the contest.
Thanks buddies. Hope I won't be the last this time, I have suffer for that mission, trust me.
Congratulations on the release
A Motherload of good games indeed ! Congrats FireMage on your release !
Congrats, fellow contest entrant. I'm uploading your file to Southquater now for mirroring purposes.
Funny thing, though, I'm getting the Speech.txt file from the SND/Th1 directory showing up in the Darkloader main page instead of the readme file - anyone else getting that?

Wow! Fine! Congratulations!
Yes. It's happened once before but I can't remember what mission it was or what was done to fix it. Yandros might remember but I'll see if I can find the mission.Originally Posted by Brethren
Congratulations on the release FireMage - looking forward to playing.
Yep, same thing here.
Let me explain you. This file is just the subtitle of the voice. I have written it for the voice actor for the translation, I have just forgotten to delete this one when I have packed the ZIP. Hum... You can play unless this txt?
I receive a screenshot about this problem. Don't run away with the fear. Juste unzip the read-me, that's so simple. Use something as WinRAR, it shall be faster.
If you have some question, just ask.

It doesn't affect playing the game but I like to read the Readme in Darkloader. I've now read it in the zip anyway.
Easier, just for you, here the read-me:

La Fin du Caprice par Jordan_MAF
================================
Histoire:
Un jour, un homme devint le chef d'un organisation.
Cet homme voulait faire de la cité, un endroit sûr où
les crimes et délits disparaîtraient pour toujours.
Cet homme eut réutilisé la corruption contre ceux qui
avait corrompu ses collaborateur, avant son ascension
au pouvoir. Cet homme s'appellait Truart.
Il fut ainsi une nuit, calme et paisible. Du haut d'une tribune,
il dénonça la criminalité et ordonna à ses hommes de se lancer dans une attaque.
L'Opération contre le Caprice des Seigneurs.
Et le moment était très bien choisi. Depuis que Garrett a dérobé le
vase de saphir, il éclata une sorte de guerre de gang dans le guilde.
Les voleurs de Donal d'un côté et ceux de Rueben de l'autre?
Hélas, le conflit se développa davantage:
Certains voleurs n'ont pas voulu choisir de parti, et ont conservé la
trésorerie pour eux et ont baptisé leur appartements: Les Quartiers Neutres.
Et d'autres voleurs, sous-payés et vivant dans peu de confort, se sont également
unis pour former un autre clan, dont le plus malin et fort d'entre eux, Lars,
devint le chef. Et prirent ainsi le nom d'Ex-mendiants.
Vous incarnerez un sergent en chef de la milice ou un ancien membre de la guilde
respecté devenu neutre.

Alors, en miliciens: Rien à signaler, si ce n'est que nos trois bras cassés
qui se coincent des fois ou des AIs qui courent partout sans raison.(Pathfinding complexe)
Sauvegarder et charger arrange parfois le problème mais pas toujours.
En voleur, sauvegardez régulièrement, en particulier quand l'objectif battez les miliciens
apparait, le temps d'attente est imprévisible, et je ne peu rien y faire.
Et lorsque vous devez aller voir Magrin, faîtes de même, car, des fois, la conversation
entre lui et les chef, ne se déclenche pas (Grabuge?). Ce cas est rare, mais soyez
prudent. Le pire: Les AIs s'emballent et foncent dans les murs, si Magrin en fait
parti, sauvegardez et chargez en espéreant qu'il retourne vers le droit chemin ou... Continuez
la mission... mais la fin sera bizarre.

Overlords'Ending by Jordan_MAF
================================
Story:
A day, a man became an organisation's cheftain.
This man wanted to make the city safe where
crimes and thieveries does not exist.
This man have used corruption against the men
who have corrupted his collaborators, before his upgrades.
This man was nammed Truart. There was a night, calm and cool.
Up in a platform, he denounce criminals and tell his men to prepare themself for an attack.
The Raid of the Overlord's Fancy.
And this night was a good choice. Since Garrett have stolen the vase from the guild,
a kind of gang's war appear in the guild.
Donal's thug against Rueben's mercenaries?
Halas, the conflict grown up:
Few thieves refuse to choice a gang, and keep the loots and nammed
their area: The Neutral's Quarter.
And a last group of thieves peniless and without any fancy, was created,
and the clever and stronger man among them, Lars,
became their cheftain. Then, they were called Ex-buggars.
You, you'll play a sergeant with Truart or an ancient and respected member of the guild
who have decided to be neutral. Make your choice!

If you are interested by my stuff, you're welcome! Just credit me!
This mission was made by I and by Eidos.
You can reuse it only as a base for new adventures.
Thanks to all people who have help me, and moreover, the voice actor
Thanks to my brother for the translation
(This file was writen by me sorry for the mistakes).
If I have forgotten someone, please, tell me it or shut up!!
If you wan't information, send me a mail: Jordan_MAF@Yahoo.fr
or write a message on the thread made for it.
!!BUG!!
So, as militiaman: No trouble, except your three taffer-bodyguards who
stuck themself in a wall, or became fool. (Thanks to this damned complex pathfinding)
Save and load, sometimes, remove this bug.
In a thief. Save when the objectif "defeat city watch" appear, the battle time
is unexpectable and I can't do anythings. Just survive during this time!
When you have to find Magrin, save again, the converse between him and bosses have few problems
of activations. After it, you are not safe, during the flee, the foolness bug can
appear, then, if Magrin is among the fool, you can save and load, but
this method does not match every time. If it don't match, continue the mission, but the end will
be odd.
Downloading
I seem to be getting random crashes on reloading but also one crash entering the room next to the bunkroom start. I've only been playing 5 minutes. I'll try a different computer.
Last edited by nickie; 16th Apr 2012 at 07:41.
A crash?? Odd, I have test in Windows 7 and Xp, and I have no crashes, and my friends too. With windows 7, you can't restart the mission without a crash and in reloading, very rarely. But in game, nothing normaly. Trouble with the english version or darkloader? I have try the english version, and nothing wrong happened, so, there, I don't understand what happening with your computer.
I've been using Win 7. I'm going to try it on an XP machine in a minute.
Crashes for me too at quickload on Win7 32. There is no problem with the other missions .
I'm afraid I get the same in XP. It's consistent in both, it crashes on the first reload but loads on the second.
Ok, so, If I make the point: Impossible to make a quick save.
If you want to reload, you have to quit the game, return to it, and reload. That is the report?
I feel that Darkloader is the culpable. My friends and I, we unzip in our thief directory. Backup all files which can be removed. If we have a non-english version, we rename all english folder by the name of our language in english.
Perhaps, Darkloader dislike my ZIP? I just can't understand why.
Bah... To bad, I fear that you shall play, and try to survive. It is annoying, but It is not my fault.
I think I understand what you're saying. If I try to reload either a quick or hard save while in game, it crashes. When I then reload after that, it does load.
It's not spoiling anything for me. It's HUGE! And yes I am full of shame about stealing from my mates.
And again try to find all the loot. An other message in your objectives
I think I've got an idea why it's not working.
During my lunch break I opened your mission in DromEd and got the following error:
Running the command "info_window" gives me the following:
If you add alll those numbers together, you get a 7512 which is at least 513 above the limit DromEd and DarkEngine can handle.
Yeah, it is a huge mission. But, when you add two game in one mission, it is normal that we get something like that, and I have add few rooms and more area or details.
For the error message, you just can click on cancel, and the mission is loaded. To portalize, I was forced to make a vbr o' all objects, delete them all after, then, when it is done, reimport it in the mission.
So, now, if you think that DarkEngine can't stand that normaly, so, now we understand that why, dromed won't to load directly. Thanks for your investigation.
I have a question: Am I the only taffer who have done two version in one mission with more than 7500 items and brushes?
By the way, is someone who won the mission? No other trouble except Ai's foolness?
