/vr/ - Retro Games

Thief is just too easy without the ultimate difficulty mod. The game is touted as the best stealth game ever, but it has all the troops of bad stealth games (guards with 3 foot vision that forget you ever existed if they spot you and lose you).

Luckily ultimate difficulty fixes all of that. The only problem I have with it is you can't really play on the hardest difficulty because sometimes you just have to kill a guy, and that makes it so you don't get the bonus objectives.

that's among the most autistic things i've ever read

>>2532615
Guess you haven't done much reading.

i never played it, thnaks for the ultimate difficulty mod


the flaws you describe are pretty lame indeed

>>2531624
I think your last point is why the guards have bad memories/vision

So I finally finished Thief Gold and Metal Age after having them for a long time. Addicting as fuck.

Not sure what to play next though.

Hey guys, does anybody have the two/three SO YOU WANT TO PLAY SOME FUCKING THIEF pictures?

>>2531612
And as for your theme, OP, it should be in a GOODIES folder in the Thief Gold folder.

Played on the hardest difficulty vanilla.

>>2538571
I've been thinking of sprucing it up a bit, updating with new FMs and my personal recommendation against HD texture packs

>>2538635
I know all about the Thief Gold HD pack, but did Bentraxx step his game up with the Thief II HD pack?
And I hope that anon with the superb texture remake is still out there.
Also, I'm pretty sure there are more Thief guides, including one that had pirates

>>2538635
By all means, do. This pic needs to be updated.

>>2536763
Thief2X is a must. Dat train level

>>2536763
>Thief2X

Thanks for reminding me, I haven't played it yet.

Bampity bump. What happened to that mission an anon was working on, and showed last thread?

What's the consensus on forward lean black-jacking? Time saver, or a situational tool turned exploit?

>>2543702
The hammer mission? I'm still working on it, but progress is slow because I'm trying to put a lot of detail in every area. It's a big temple with lots of small, detailed rooms, rather than large sparse areas. I have a title though, and even an idea for a campaign.

>>2544002
TTLG is organising a summer un-contest where people can release missions simultaneously this september. If your mission isn't too big you can always release it by then. I also plan on making one with some friends (currently working on textures).

>>2543816
I consider it an exploit, but like other exploits, I like to use it.

Gonna dump some pics

Sitting down to play through the series proper, installed TGtool, now "run forward" and "walk forward" cancel each other out. Previously I had walking in a traditional wasd configuration, with speed modifier on shift and run forward on ctrl, and both could work as a modifier on top of wasd inputs.
Can I change back just that one thing? What's your basic movement layout?

>>2531612
I'm looking for a fan missions similar to the one from Gold where you look for Fire Talisman.
Where you get to taff around some forgoten ruins. Any recommendations?

>>2545410
Off the top of my head:

The Broadsword of Sheol
Tuttocomb's Tomb
From Beneath The Sands
Broken Triad mission 2
Gems of Provenance mission 3
Whispers In The Desert
Curse of the Falcon mission 2
The Temple of the Tides

>>2545437

>>2545410
what FM's this?

>>2549181
It's the lost city from thief gold with a texture pack put on it.

>>2538698
I am still out here. I keep thinking I should come back to the pack, but I'm working with someone on a game right now so I can't divide my time... Unfortunately.

i tried thief gold

it was pretty good until i got to the 2nd mission

those fucking zombies are shit

>>2550613
There are a few other zombie missions too. You can sneak by them like you can humans. Thief 2 has no (well, 4) zombies. 2 are avoidable and 2 are a secret... Might be more your speed.

But I recommend pushing through Thief 1 anyway. It complements Thief 2 well, so it's worth it.

>>2550562
Hey, it's lovely seeing you still lurking about
Out of curiosity, what game are you guys working on?

>>2550763
A robot arena wave survival sort of shooter. Probably other game modes too.
