For a vertical mission like this I didn't do much climbing, tbh. It's more like a long spiralling street, that goes higher and higher to the mansion, and it's quite linear. Whil...

Hey there. Throwing the letter in the fire should work, as it's one of the ways to destroy the invitation. It sometimes takes a second or two before it burns, though. It should work if you drop it in fireplaces or use a fire arrow.

chakkman    29. November 2024 18:31

Well, you already know that it has a lot of verticality, when it's a skacky mission. 😉 Apart from that, there's really lots to like. The level design is great, and logically ...

Hey there, thanks for the review. I'm going to release an updated version of the mission very soon that contains dramatic performance gains thanks to a new, experimental lighting optimization process. It should be minimum +30 frames per second for pretty much everyone.

A good mission that feels like a leftover/spin-off from The Black Parade that did not fit narratively into the campaign by some of its authors in disguise (the overall level of ...

If you're referring to the Keepers wearing black coats, these were literally Keeper meshes made for TBP.

Melkesideck    30. August 2021 10:24

I Noticed that the floors look good but wood worked supports walls etc not as good. (blurry) Can I use the Hi res texture pack with this FM?

forum  

skacky    30. August 2021 12:56

We use a combination of stock textures and some custom ones that still mesh well together, so this may be why some textures may appear lower res.
The Black Parade isn't compatible with graphics mods. The campaign was not designed with any of them in mind. You can still use them if you want but you'd have to do it manually.

It's a very interesting mission because it really, really looks like a lost mission from Calendra's Legacy, using mostly the same texture selection, similar sounds and built very similarly to both A Meeting With Basso and Midnight in Murkbell. I think it's a fantastic mission and it's crazy the author tried to make it under Olddark when you consider the sheer scope of it.

"Rodamill" picks up (almost) right where "The Shipment" left off. Having shut yourself up in a box inside of a Mechanist warehouse, you eventually come to... in the ruins of Rod...

The fact that there is no followup to this insanely good mission is one of the biggest tragedies in FM history to be honest. I haven't played this mission in a while but I remember the mines in particular being spectacularly creepy.

No FM was released in August 2020. But it doesn't mean no FMs are currently work in progress! To name one, a content-rich update was published in The Black Parade topic two days...

Thema über   The Painter's Wife (2020)   TDM FM
skacky    27. Juli 2020 13:55

If you're looking for a really really large city exploration mission with many areas to explore and things to do then The Painter's Wife is exactly what you want to play, and it is in my opinion one of the very best at what it does. What we have here is an entire quarter more or less neatly divided into two halves, the north and south districts,...

I think the mission would've worked much better had the city bits been removed altogether except the immediate surroundings of the museum. A sewer access could've been neato also. The gold standard of museum missions (Heart of Bohn) does that pretty much to perfection.

Thema über   Show Off (2020)   T2 FM
skacky    11. Juli 2020 14:45

Show Off is a definite step up from the author's previous mission from the Thief 1 contest, but it still isn't quite there yet. The main attraction of the mission is a vast museum in the middle of town where you must steal a few trinkets while avoiding triggering the security systems.

The player starts in the city and it is quite clearly the ...

DISCLAIMER: one of the authors is working on The Black Parade and is one of my close friends. I tried to review the mission with an objective mind.

Feast of Pilgrims is one of the best Life of the Party-like rooftop missions (where you can't get off the streets). In that sense it pulls off several thieves' highway trails quite masterfully, wi...

skacky    10. Juli 2020 17:01

I was very impressed by My Favorite Year, doubly so when I read it was made in under three weeks. I've seen many people say it's a run of the mill mission but I disagree, in my opinion My Favorite Year is one of the best missions in the contest and where a mission like Fierce Competition is fairly mundane, My Favorite Year shines.

There isn't much to talk about Time for Change considering it is a newbie mission, but it's not too terrible and I would love to see more missions from this author. Kudos for participating with their first ever mission.

The main issues with the mission are that it's insanely linear and lighting is very so-so. There is no real atmosphere to s...

DISCLAIMER: All four authors on this mission are working on The Black Parade and are close friends of mine. I tried to review the mission with an objective mind.

The Builder's Paradise is one of the most impressive missions I've ever played, in addition to being one of the best Mechanist missions ever. It's interesting how Thief 2 doesn't hav...

Thema über   Fierce Competition (2020)   T2 FM
skacky    10. Juli 2020 16:53

Fierce Competition is a very small mission that shouldn't take you very long to complete. Garrett is hired by a third party to disrupt one of his rivals' affairs, and also rob him otherwise that wouldn't be fun. There isn't much to talk about Fierce Competition: the mission is divided into two parts, the streets and the mansion, and the story is...

DISCLAIMER: Both authors are working on The Black Parade and are close friends of mine. I tried to review this mission with an objective mind.

Into the Odd is the least Thief 2 out of all the missions for the contest, in fact it feels more like something out of Purah or Sperry's minds, and while it feels very removed from Thief 2's aesthetic ...

Thema über   Deadly Cure (2019)   T2 FM
skacky    5. November 2019 03:04

Korthak's first mission Deadly Cure is a really good first effort that hits all the right notes. While it uses Thief 2, the mission is clearly taking after Thief 1 style-wise. Garrett got himself thrown in jail by the Hammerites and must find a way to escape and take revenge on them. As you can imagine, the mission is a bit more involved than th...

If it weren't for Melan's Unbidden Guest I think The Unsung Villain would've won the Classic Thief Experience contest back in 2008. This little gem of a mission is basically Assassins and it's just as fun as the original mission. After an assassination attempt, you follow your would-be murderer back to whoever hired him and from there you have t...
