IF TDM goes standalone, then yes that's one issue to take care of.
Probably depends on each mission on a case-by-case basis what's the best way to deal with that.

In what way is it unintuitive? :p It is based on sound (and sometimes visual) cues, and in that respect, succeeds - it relies on player skill, which none of the Thief games really did.
Oddly, something about the lockpicking creates a positive-feedback that I seem to have a upsetting sensitivity for. I don't think I will every be able to play it.

A plea to the community:
Please visit the Steam forums and let folks reading the Thief release threads know about The Dark Mod. (My Steam account doesn't appear to work there? :o )
Thanks,

Yes, but I was hoping since the game has now been released on Steam the new threads in the general forum would get some nods about TDM.
I think it's too late now unless one of straggler gaming blogs does a big Thief retrospective.
Oh well. :cool:

It's never going to get a lot of recognition at Steam I imagine.
First, you have to post in the thief series threads. But you have to purchase Doom3. Same old 'I don't want to play Doom3' (thief player) or 'I want run and gun not sneaking' (Doom player).
Either way it's been mentioned there for a long time.
And your steam forums account is not the same as your Steam account. Ones a game service, ones a games forum.

Surely there are people who are both fans of Thief and Doom? I played both of these games all the time before they were (TDM at least) made into a nice sandwich.
First-person games in general have always been my favorite, whether they be action or stealth based. Now, when are the TDM developers going to add chainsaws to mission load-out tools? (joking)
Seriously, I've tried spawning them while in TDM missions, but I couldn't pick them up... lol

I think part of the problem is that Doom ain't cheap - it's still a mid price game on steam - and that's arguably more than D3 is worth and probably more than people are willing to pay to give an [awesome] amateur effort like TDM a punt.
The sooner the Open Source release of the Doom 3 engine is in a fit state and the sooner TDM transfers across the better for everybody.

I vaguely remember reading about some Doom 3 re-release with HD graphics and stuff, like a week or two ago or so. Will the Dark Mod work with that also? I'm not planning to buy it at the moment or anything, but I might do that some time in the future, and perhaps someone else will find this information helpful...
