An extremely ambitious use of the engine. Visually stunning, easily the best looking fan mission I've ever laid eyes on. The use of sound was also some of the best I've experienced in an FM. The plot is masterfully fed to us through the environment here, subverting expectations and completely catching me off guard. It's my dream premise in a Thi...

I am seriously impressed by the quality of this mission, it's fantastic through and through. It's on the same level of quality of Scarlet Cascabal and Black parade.

Simply fantastic!!

True classic castle thieving, with a great twist (and while a twist in a mission like this might be cliche to some, I still really enjoy it). AI was very buggy, but considering the standards for Thief it actually performed fine. Performance outside the castle was poor, but once you're inside it's completely fine and looks beautiful.
The absolut...

Gorgeous mission with a smooth gameplay/objective progression, albeit quite easy on the difficulty side.
The voice acting is also a highlight.
Performance is normal after the initial outdoor section.
Good Job!

Yest, its Skacky, it's a beautiful level and is a great example at storytelling. But the state of the level evolves as you progress. There are events that move the clock forward so to say. Events unfold in a natural and very atmospheric fashion. I found no bugs, but got stuck on trying to figure out what am I supposed to do next. There are in-ga...

Mission looks amazing. As others have said, the "twist" (since every thief map set in a mansion now has a twist because everyone wants to be The Sword, is it really a twist?) is a lot better than most and has at least 2 unique gameplay items I found. The only issue is that it's a bit buggy. I got a specific character stuck in a room with a lever...

A short, incredibly detailed little fan mission that has a fun plot and premise, but the gameplay revolving around a character central to this FM is a bit jank and kind of cools the tension and even veers a bit into mild comedy at times. Still well worth a play for the atmosphere and design of the FM itself, though.

So after I played Winds of Misfortune I wanted to give the successor a look.

Just saying: While Winds of Misfortune is a fun mission(and I enjoyed it more than this), you don´t have to play it to understand what´s going on here. It helps, but you can grasp the story of this one anyway.

Well...the thing is, this mission becomes kinda frusta...

Great atmosphere, excellent design of the castle and its surroundings; nothing less could be expected from one of the designers of Black Parade.

This was a very enjoyable and unique mission with a few quirks. You have to break into a large and lavish countryside mansion surrounded by mountains. The natural environments here are some of the best I've seen in Thief, and the architecture is beautiful. The manor and its lavish garden in the bright moonlight are among the most stunning sights...

Reflections in Red is a bona fide mansion mission, something you don't see often from Skacky. The area surrounding this mansion is really unique, though. The mansion itself is more like a castle. All this sets the stage for a heist with a real Halloween vibe to it. It reminded me a lot of 'Death's Turbid Veil' at parts, to the point of making me...

The locale is great: the setting, multiple entry points, all that makes it a classic. I imagine it must have been challenging to come up with a design for a floor plan like this, where every floor is basically an open enfilade, but it here it works. For my personal taste, I'd vote for fewer tiled floors, since AI switches to bat-like hearing wit...

****SPOILER WARNING****

First of all, this mission looks absolutely gorgeous. Unfortunately, there is a pro and a con about this. The pro being obviously that the visuals are stunning, and some of the best I've seen in Thief II so far. The con is that performance is sub par in some parts of the mission, especially the beginning, where the fra...

As soon as I loaded in the mission, I had a feeling it was gonna be great.

Quality visuals and aesthetic, with good variety to boot, well made layout that's easy to understand and navigate, as well as clever scenarios that caught me by surprise a couple of times.

Only real downside is sometimes npcs got caught on geometry, but I chalk th...

One time, while climbing a mountain with a friend, I was completely exhausted and desperate for the journey to end. I asked him how far along we were. He replied, “Skacky.”

I let out a deep sigh of relief because I knew I was already at the PEAK.

I just finished this FM. Like i said in my other post the mission looks beautiful (even without HD Mod 1.0). Objectives are mostly straightforward, guards are not very hard to deal with (or avoid in some cases) and there are numerous ways to enter the castle. There is a bit of verticality too. We have even few optional objectives rewarding the p...

Not really sure what I'm doing wrong, but I'm not finding any link to download "New Dark 1.28". I tried RoguePatcher like one forum said but supposedly that's only for Thief Gold. Might just be stupid, but I big confused...can anybody help?

I can't seem to open doors, plus red text appears at top of screen saying Heal after Flee won't work without Newdark 1.28??? I am 100% sure I have that version installed.

It's hard to advertise this mission to others, as to state what it does well would give away too much. It's a very pretty mission, with an enjoyable gameplay loop.

There have been about 9ish recent FMs since rediscovering Thief after the release of Black Parade that made me think "I ought to make an account on Thief Guild and leave a review." This ended up being the one that finally forced my hand. I don't even know where to begin (I guess starting at the beginning), moonlight over water and autumn trees s...

I have installed this and it still says in red text in game it needs new dark 1.28 text says Heal then flee

How do we get it working
