Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, thank you so much for this!

Some minor nit-picking things I have noticed.
* The Signs texture family show up as garbled colours when I play. I think they are the only texture families that use Gif images.
* The mission maps do not seem to match the interface correctly. Especially the Dayport ones where the branch sticking out (left under) is noticeably lighter in colour.
* Very abrupt texture change for the road under the east city gate. Might want to change that to the gradual snow one.
* Minor design choice. The city gate signs look a bit awkwardly placed on the ceiling. Why not just place them on the wall?
* In the Hammerite area there is a page with a sermon for the day after. However in later missions this is still there while time has passed. So they give the same sermon twice?
* This is probably influenced by my own past memories. The interior of Fairbanks manor seems somewhat underutilised. There is not a whole lot of reason to explore the upper floor or cellar.
* In the Keep map it's very easy to skip elemental enemies by jump running along the parapet of the outer wall.

Which language ZIP are you playing? The signs textures having garbled palette was fixed early on in testing and I know it works properly in English.

It’s the English version. But there are some Russian files in there as well I noticed.

First of all - huge thanks and congratulations on the release! I'm at the first mission so far and it looks very neat. I haven't played anything snowy for a looong time!
Just a quick question - will I lose much of a fun if I play on Hard instead of Expert? Last few fanmissions I tried took way too much of my time, so I prefer to drop the extreme difficulty level in favor of a more fluid gameplay experience. But I may change my mind if it mean having a lot of interesting places inaccessible.

As far as I have seen you will not miss any areas if you choose a different difficulty. I started on normal myself just for the first experience. Working my way through the other difficult settings now.
Yandros on 30/10/2017 at 02:42
Areas? No. Just more guards, higher loot requirements and some no-kill objectives on higher difficulty levels.
PinkDot on 30/10/2017 at 09:20
Ah, that's good. I'll continue on Hard then, knowing the length of the campaign.

Thank you for this great campaign.

A new FM is always welcome, but a few queries. What is the premise and how many missions are there? is this a full length game like T2X or maybe something shorter like Dracula? I am sure it will be great in any case, was just wondering.
