Great, but keep in mind that developing for multiplayer is a bit different than developing for singleplayer. Speaking of developing for multiplayer, I just recently released my MP mission Monster Arena in the Fan Mission Forum.

The main site is gone for good unfortunately, but I've updated the download links for the setup and source code to point to Dropbox instead.

You're probably getting this question a lot, but do you think there's any chance of a new update of your Multiplayer mod any time soon? Maybe for NewDark? I'm really enjoying the mod but it's a pity that most of the new missions won't work with it :cheeky:

It's not likely to happen. I think Tos is done working on the project. But, I shouldn't speak for him. It would be better if he'd post here, but I don't think he comes around anymore. I could try poking him as I have him as a friend on Steam.
The problem with the multiplayer patch in relation to NewDark is that the executable works differently than it did compared to the executable for version 1.18. I'm not a coder so I don't think I can explain this quite right, but my understanding is that at a code level it basically renders the multiplayer patch unusable since things are moved or changed in the exe, which means that the multiplayer patch would have to be considerably modified and the coder would have to figure out how to hook it back into the game.
And in order to do that, we need source code. I think we do have it, but I think ideally what would probably work out the best is if Tos and the makers of NewDark were to collaborate and I just don't see that happening. Which leads us right back to seeing if someone else might pick up the mantle. As of now, it seems that no one has come forth to start work back up on thief 2 multiplayer.

Errrmmm.... So is this still a thing? And if yes, is it compatible with new dark?

It's not compatible with NewDark.
