    Link opens a page, but the HERE link says: "NO SUCH MISSION."

    Guess I'll have to wait a bit longer.

    The period at the end of the link you provided causes it to go to a blank mission page.

    Cripes! This is really chuggy as you have already mentioned in the readme. I have an Athlon 2000XP (1.6gb) - 256mb - Geforce 4 MX 440. To think i can play Unreal 2 on max with my system too! Oh well. Off i go to play, play, play!

    I hope i can find the way in very soon. This chuggyness is making me feel sick.

    BINGO! That was well hidden! You taffer!

    Eh, i think the mission needs to be reportalised as light bright seems to be turned on, even though my gem indicates garrett is in total darkness. also i think reportalising it would solve the massive lag i am also experiencing.

    Congrats on your release though.

    Forget that. It needs optimizing a few times. I'm afraid i couldn't go on with this one. Sorry! Playing it makes me feel sick. Didn't get any better once inside either.

    It got better for me once I knocked off everyone outside.

    Well I did optimize it last before I released it but I gues I should of optimized it more then once? I don't think it makes a diffrent how many times I optimize it before I released it. And no I didn't leave light bright on Shadows so I have no idea why it looks like that for you. Anyways it can't be really bad with lag for everybody because it wasn't for me most times and wasn't really slow for some of my beta testers. I think the only way to make it perfectly lag free is do the whole mission over again and there's no way I'm doing that and I'm so sick of working on it because of how long I have because now I really need a break. And I felt that it was really ok now and high time to release it or I might as well of kept this mission of mine forever!!

    Would the ungodly amount of AI in this missions have anything to do with the lag?

    Also,
    spoiler:
    I can't find the key to Prince...sorry...King Albert's tomb. I've gone over every inch of all the southern crypts, but no joy. Hint, possibly?

    spoiler:
    It's in a room conncted to a hallway and behind the third crypt from the door.

    Great mission congratulations!

    Its running fine on my system and the AI models right outside of the castle doors are frieghtning as hell.
    Whoa! they are enough to scare the skin off a guy.
    Very nice DGL indeed.
    I kept blackjacking one of them until he exploded and freaked me out!
    Scariest i ever seen so Far!

    I just need to find that key and i keep searching......
    I am sure to have nightmares from this toni-HahA

    Cool stuff Man

    Well I'm glad that it's fine for you but I am actually going to re-release my mission because I have optimized it about 10 more times now and find that it does help the more times you do it because with this version I made now I was zooming outside and it was just the same inside!! And I found just one more torch that was backwards in my mission anyways. So I am going to re-release it now to thiefmissions and it will surely be the final version because of how good it runs now. Well I'm a little sad that I actually have to release my mission to the same place again but you know what they say: The first time is no good (or somthing) but the second times the charm!!

    Thanx for updating it. I shall give it another go. Is the new version finished and at Thiefmissions yet?

    BTW, Those custom AI at the door cetainly are good. Damn buggers to kill though.

    I'm afraid I will have to give up on this one as I have a P III 1700 and am having the same problem as sluggs. Just too difficult to move - sorry!!!
