Impossible to find all loot.

TafferCharles on 11/11/2023 at 02:48

cI must have played every single Thief gold like 5 times, Thief ds like 15 times, and metal age like 3 times. This time I decided to take the challenge to get all loot in every level. I'm an expert thief, so why should I be able to? So far I have done 4 levels. Being super thorough in every single corner of the game, the mines, the prison, all over Bafford Manor, every single secret could be found, and yet I always come out missing like 200 loot in each one. Clearly I'm not as an expert as I thought I was. All the times I made Gamall slip with oil were just a ruse.

I just came here to complain. After all, this site is one of the last good remnants of the internet before it became a huge gross virtual shopping mall where you can't sit anywhere.

PS. not a new member, been here since like 2012 but my account is old and lost.
Speaking of, I remember there used to be two projects, shadows of the metal age, and some newdark revision from something falcon. I actually found a really old postit in a really old PC and copied it to a post it here, what was of those projects, were they finished? If so, Where can I find them?

Edit: I thought you were looking for NewDark, but maybe I misinterpreted.

night falcon was finished in 2 separate sets of missions, amazing set of missions

as far as loot on om once you see where it all is, its easy to get it all with secrets

not as far as fan missions some of those are very hard to get all loot/secrets, = there was one mission i think by gort where some loot is timed so if you say read a letter then go to a certain place quickly enough you can see a guy leave a door and get a loot bag of him, so if there is that kind of stuff in other missions= there is, like the mission where you have to wait for a guy by a river on a cliff to get a key to a massive loot area in a mountain, also some missions where one item carryes over to next mission and is used to get maybe loot/etc so that is not easy either

garrett is a master thief , so if we all cant find all loot/secrets we failed not garrett= we let garrett down

That's T2X which came out in 2005.

The original package came with its own launcher, but that seems to have trouble on newer PCs. See the second post here for a download link for an updated version that works like a regular FM, and thus can be loaded with AngelLoader: (https://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=149868)
