message   Nicely done but a bit too long
topic about   Trickster's Gem Mine: Training (2004)   T2 FM

This is a nice attempt at a revamped training mission very strongly based off of the one from Thief 1.

Especially the areas in the beginning are quite pleasant to look at and could have stemmed from that original Training mission but the further you get along the more the style of the surroundings degrades and becomes boring, mundane and empt...

message   Clearly unfinished. Not worth digging up
topic about   The Library 1 - The Town (2003)   T2 FM

This and all the subsequent "The Library" FM's are clearly in an unfinished state.

In terms of design and details of the mission this one has a leg up over the other Library FM's but it's still not great. Some areas look quite alright but the ambitions of the author ran wild as it seems and every room, hallway and street is far too long and ...

I'd pursue your idea with the changes appearing in the notes. There are sometimes multiple entries for T1 or T2 FMs as well but these are often different releases and not updates (e.g. the Scarlet Cascabel).

Having a kind of changelog in the notes sounds perfect to me and circumvents any confusion

message   Adding Download links?
Morente    Sept. 28, 2023, 10:30 p.m.

Hello,

some FMs don't have a download link which is why I didn't pursue those any further but now stumbled upon "The Secret Way" for T1 which is supposed to be pretty good. That's why I googled for another download link for the FM since thiefguild only has the "theBoycot" link mentioned of which none is working for me. Anyway turns out the FM...
