THIEF: DEADLY SHADOWS
23 January, 2004
Eidos, one of the world's leading publishers and developers of entertainment
software, announces Thief: Deadly Shadows, the eagerly-awaited third

Busy with L'arsene, nice fm, but i'm kinda stuck.
Near L'arsene house (where i found his diary) the is a small locked metal
gate, how do I open it?
A bit further along I can look thru a window and see another thief sitting i

I need to know how to proceed.  I got stuck on this mission, and started
over hoping to find something I missed.  I'm at the room with the big wooden
beam structure, where an elevator takes up to doors with a "Lord Alans
Mansion" sign.  I know I can work across to the other side ...

As you probably know from reading the ISA, TTLG and Eidos forums, the
likelihood of an SDK or any form of level editing tools being released
for T3 is... questionable. As T3 developer null said in his post on the
ISA forums recently, "I'm certain that if it's important to enough ...

After a long break from thief i'm finally back again. I'm sure many
fantastic FM's have been made this year. Perhaps even something better then
my old favorite "The Art of Thievery". Which FM's should i start downloading
first?

This is fantastic news for taffers.  Steven Hindley a.k.a. Belboz, the
author of such classic FMs as the Trickster's Gem Mine Series (Errand Boy,
Shore Leave, Up sh.t Creek, Making Tracks), and the amazing Raid on Washout
Central, along with a few other missions, recently announced ...

I'm in one of those "Replay all the old, fuzzy, won't-let-ya-down games" moods
(to get over the frustration of Final Fantasy bosses, heh) so this morning I
reinstalled Thief 2.  Previously it'd been installed on this exact same
computer, only with an OS of Win98 instead of Win2K, ...

Take a look at http://www.thief3.com now at last they have
something new - a sumptious flash video.

A long time ago, I successfully backed up my T2 Program CD.  Now my backup
CD has gotten scratched and I need to make another backup of my original.
But Nero can't read the cd, and I've forgotten how I did it last time.  Does
anybody know?

I know this put my mind to rest.  It's rarely that we get information from
such a reliable source, but sometimes we get lucky.  Thief: Dark Shadows
will be fantastic, now I'm sure of it!  No more worrying -- check it our for
yourselves:

Sorry if there's already a thread about this. I'm posting from work
via Google, and they only update their news articles every few hours.

It looks like there's some good news.

Need a hint.  I've gotten to the room(wailing chamber?) with the holy water
font on the tall pedestal in the middle.  I can rope arrow up to the
platform with the ladder and that leads to a room with a couple switches(one
turns off the lights, the other controls power for an outside ...

Help for Elevator Mission 2, Doubtful Corridor, I'm stuck!
I have opened the door with "The key to hell",
flicked the switch behind the Angel on the stake,
killed the 2 opaque gaunts that appear in the room,

I'am looking for MS Project 2000.
