Hopefully one final bump for this...
Fileplanet is now hosting the third version of the (
http://www.fileplanet.com/154676/150000/fileinfo/Thief:-Deadly-Shadows---Fan-Mission-Townhouse) zip. It's the exact same mission as the second version, but it includes the t3.exe and t3mainrelease.exe, and a subzip to return things to normal, in the hopes of taking some of the speedbumps off of the release.
I haven't changed or altered anything apart from the extra/support files in the zip.If you have version 2, you probably don't need/want it, if you get version 3 off fileplanet then come here hopefully you're only here to be nosey rather than because you found a problem/can't get it to work.

sorry for this but I tried wading through all the posts... what are the instructions for getting this running? Can the first post be edited to include precise instructions? Thanks.

Teren Powers, give it a few days and GarrettLoader will be ready.... (its a replacement for DarkLoader but with ability to play T3 missions as well).

hadn't occured to update the front page, sorry!
Right, done.
Or you could wait for GarrettLoader, I haven't tried it yet, but it seems other people have made it work, and it probably is easier unless you have the fileplanet version. (In which case it's likely to be about the same)

GarrettLoader version 1 should be out sunday or monday, however you will still need the t3mainrelease.exe renamed to t3main.exe (the editor version of t3.exe doesn't seem to be needed and it also cuts down on some of the copy protection stuff from what I can tell, however it doesn't hurt to use it).
The only thing is I don't know what the legalities are of releasing the exe with GarrettLoader, especially if you don't have T3.

I wouldn't bat an eye about it - it's not like someone could somehow play the game without buying it because of that

Fair enough, I'll see about adding it as a download.

The EXE is useless without the rest of the game; and besides, the EXEs are freely downloadable as part of the editor package. Should be fine, I reckon.

Thank you all for your hard work. I am looking forward to playing all the great FMs this community is going to produce. Looking forward to GarretLoader also.. was there some other loader in the works? I member seeing something about that somewhere... now where did I put my head?
