Anyone know how to kill the ghost? Maybe delete some game file? Ghost + everything dark makes it the most annoying thing I've ever seen in a fm.
Hi! You don't really need to. I was also scared when stumbling into it the first time; however, upon closer observation there are some possibilities to avoid meeting.
Hint:
Staying outside the entrance door to the dark wing, wait until you will hear no ghostly sounds.
Find the lantern. From the entrance door to the dark wing take right. First you discover a couple of chests, then lantern.
Find the stairs leading down. For that, from the entrance door to the dark wing take slightly left.
Wait near the stairs until you will hear ghostly sounds. It means that the ghost goes up from the lower floors (the dark wing consist of three floors). Hide outside the entrance door and wait.
When the ghost will reach the upper floor where you are now, it will turn left from the stairs and start to walk around. It will give you the time needed to go down the stairs.
Once at the 2nd floor, you may want to find a door leading to the store room (the ghost does not come into it), or to go downstairs to the 1st floor.
If you chose to investigate the store room, wait there long enough until ghost will go down and up again. Do not follow him to the 1st floor as it has the marble tile.
Being at the first floor, find the door and pick the lock.

This was an amazing mission! Thank you very much Beltzer for taking the time to create it and letting us enjoy it! I finished short of some loot [spoiler]which i'm sure i missed in the dark area with the monster because i got scared[/spoiler] but I will for sure replay it! Keep doing what you're doing because you are very talented!

Really terrific mission.
Architecture interesting.
Decor and attention to detail absolutely top notch.
Gameplay and design engrossing and compelling.
The final stage was chilling and very well executed.
I know you did not invent everything used in this mission. That's what the Thief community has excelled at: going beyond anything Looking Glass was able to do and making it generally available.
But knowing how to use the elements in Dromed and create something special is a real skill and an art, and this was special.
Favorite details: the candles dropping onto the table when a candlestick is snatched; the black and white swirl, plush carpet in the master bedroom.

tone_lord: Thank you, for the mini "review" :)
That's what you want to hear, so you keep the motivation going and (MAYBE) continue making FMs.

I agree. Everything is fine in this FM until I reached dark wing. I've abandonned the mission at that moment.
I don't care about the invicible ghost, but what I dislike more is the total darkness. I would have prefer something like in "The Unseen", invincible ghost but no darkness.
Invicible ennemi + enlightened world is OK
Vulnerable ennemi + total darkness would be OK
But Invicible ennemi + total darkness + IA can see you in the dark = too much frustrating
Anyway, I loved everything else in the FM, architecture, puzzle, story, all are really gôÔd !

There's a lantern in the dark wing, though it's not an easy task to find it without a lantern :)
From the entrance door to the dark wing take right. First you discover a couple of chests, then lantern.
Thanks to the author for this masterpiece! These wonderful pictures and castle room decorations are of an incredible beaty!
As for the the plot, it makes me remember and paraphrase Lord Raiden's word "then this thievery is now personal" :)

fabulous mission! I think I will show the wife the bathrooms for ideas:laff:
One moment of annoyance was getting hooked on the light coming down from the kid's room and the lift went down and left me hanging there!:rolleyes: guess I have to mend my sneaky suit now!
More please!!!:thumb::thumb:

Why is this the only mission where there are subtitles on the screen when the guards speak? I have subtitles disabled in the user.cfg file. Why am I seeing subtitles only in this mission?
