Wonder where I've put my hero cards. :)
Thank you. Winter draws on, as they say, so I'm sure I'll be back to having spare time again soon.

Can I just say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped compile and maintain this list?
THANK YOU!!!
I recently lost everything on my hard drive, including about 2GB of fan missions that I have backed up nowhere, so this list is like my Bible.
I love you all for doing it.

Thanks for adding my mission :) I just have a small correction to make: HI consists of only one mission (although it could probably have benefited from being split into two, but that's a whole other story).

No it wasn't, it was me with my head in the clouds somewhere.

It might be helpful with such a long list of mission categories to sub-categorize the mission listing.
Something like the following:
Location
Bank Jobs
Bar/Inn/Tavern/Hotel
City
Mansion
Mission Type
AI Battle/Battle Arena/Combat
Assassination
Mystery/Detective
Puzzle
(maybe duplicate Bank Jobs)
Opponent
Beasts
City Watch
Undead
Miscellaneous
Daylight*
Water*
Small
*-would these fit under location

That looks to be a good idea but off the top of my head I would think there would also be a lot of work involved depending on how it was implemented - I do so love linking things to things.
The main problem is that as each category is increased, the thread sometimes goes a little bananas and some items disappear and reappear in strange places. And the whole upgraded thread has had to be redone a couple of times already to make things appear in the right place and/or the database has to be updated. You'd think there were poltergeists lurking sometimes. :)
I think it's worth looking at though so I will try and give it some thought. It could turn out to be something quite simple to do.

It's very simple to do. We should discuss it.

:confused::confused:
Links?
I think you misunderstand. The mission listing would just have a second header layer. Something like this:
Mission listings:Enemies
Undead (hyperlink)
Actually, here is a draft for a reorganized list. I've added comments in bold italics. Also, might it be useful to place all of the OMs in categories as well; as examples.
Mission listings:Location: -
talk about a big sublistBank Jobs -
I'm not sure if this should be a location or mission style; a bank job is generally going to be a standard theft mission like many missions are, so having it be a mission style doesn't seem like it would be very useful for the FM browser.Bar/Inn/Tavern/Hotel
Castle/Fortress
Cathedral
Cave/Natural Tunnels
Cemetery/Graveyard
Church
City
City and Mansion -
Are there really so many missions that include significant city sections beyond a mansion? I wouldn't consider Lord Bafford's Manor to fit this category; although I guess Blackmail might.Dock/Harbour/Port/Ship
Factory/Facility
Houses/Cottages/Apartments
Jail/Prison -
which doesn't mean you are escaping from one, so this is definitely a locationMansion/Estate
Mines/Man-made Tunnel
Miscellaneous Buildings
Monastery/Priory/Seminary
Mountains
Museum
Outdoor/Forest
Ruins
Sewer
Swamp
Temples
Thieves Highway/Rooftop
Tombs/Catacombs/Crypts
Tower
Town
Village
Warehouse
Opponents: -
I think most all non-english speakers know what this means... if not, it should be pretty obvious from the context.Beasts -
The listing should be consistent, so should we go with plural or singular?City Watch
Hammerite
Keepers
Mages
Mechanist
Pagan
Pirate
Thieves/Thieves Guild
Undead/Zombies/Ghosts/Haunts/Skeletons
Mission Goals: -
Missions that feature major objectives or segments that aren't steal X object or Y amount of loot.Assassination
Escape
Mystery/Detective
Rescue
Special Features: -
This sublist is focused on special elements that are part of or central to a mission. Also there might be a few special categories that could fit here.AI Battle/Battle Arena/Combat -
Combat is not really a goal for most of these missions, though on occasion it could be central aspect for the missionDaylight -
and yet no nighttime category (j/k)Horror
Lost Civilizations -
I'm not sure if this category is more about the location or aesthetics/puzzles/goals.Mazes -
seems more of a feature than a goalRelic/Artifact/Talisman
Sci-Fi/Future/Modern/Other Worlds/Space -
this one is so broad of a category, it doesn't really fit into the location sublistWater
Seasonal/Holiday/Weather
