The 1.28 NewDark might not work with older fanmissions. This fm and the other one called Reflections in Red also requires 1.28
I will not upgrade so I guess I will be not playing these two fm's. I just hope the other fm creators will use the older version. If it is not broken why change ?

In just a couple of weeks, the End of Year Competition FMs will be released and it is likely that majority of them will require 1.28. There may be occasional mappers who choose to work on 1.27, but their number will dwindle with every month. So if you want to continue playing new missions, it is in your best interest to upgrade, whether you agree with the idea behind 1.28 or not. You can always keep two separate installs.

If you're aware of an older mission that doesn't work with 1.28, it might be helpful to identify that mission and describe the problem you experienced, or that you understand to exist, in the (

I took your advice and created another T2 on a different drive. Downloaded the 1.28 update and installed it without problems. Intereggnum works fine. Will try with the older fm's to see if they work.

Mission finished in 'normal' difficult. I took around one hour to finish it. I found this mission very satisfying, for a first mission it's a good job. A few points in my opinion could be better : avoid to many places with almost empty rooms, it would have been nice to see more objects, furniture, decorative elements in these areas. Also It's a pity that there was only on readable available; a story built through several readables gives more life to the mission.
There are just a couple of things I'd also like to report.
A lot of windows are partially transparent, which is fine and realistic for the glass, but the windows wooden frames have also this transparency, and that looks unrealistic :

This nice man didn't react to my presence, I tried to knock him out from behind but nothing happened, his smile seems to tell me :" Don' mind me, I don't belong to this game":

https://i.postimg.cc/DzY61yD3/dump168.pngI had a big ball playing this one, and will replay it in "expert" next time, but will give a night sky with stars/atmosphere to it, to be honest, I am tired of seeing clouds every day.
Thank you so much for this one, and I hope you'll bring more. :thumb:

blind ironman run - gave up around 90 minutes after wandering around and not finding a single key to open any unpickable door. I will retry it again in the new year when I will have some more spare time.
