NOTES: This is my first FM for Thief2, A Tough Night!
This mission was made for Thief2 The Metal Age Anniversary Contest but because it used features from Dromed Deluxe (monsters, textures etc.) was not accepted to take part in the contest.
This is a huge city mission so don't expect to finish it fast. A few hours of play are required even at normal mode. The story takes place between TDP and Thief 2 The Metal Age. The City is still old and dark in many areas still you can feel the air of the new Metal Age that is coming. Garrett takes part in a conflict between the Baron and the Wardens. Just read Garrett's Journal in your inventory at start. It contains all the story lines and all you need to know in order to play this mission.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
This mission was built in the Old Dark version 1.18, with a maximum number of objects of 2000, so it's not so rich in content, objects and visuals like the other Contest entries due to the limitations of the old engine in which it was built. I post this just in case, for players to know what to expect.

Updated to version 6.0 (21.06.2020):
-The mission is now fully playable in New Dark. For those of you who still play in Old Dark you can find some old .pcx map files in the folder intrface\miss20\english\pcx and you can switch the .png files with those
-Fixed a lot of bugs and problems reported by players
-Fixed the bugged objective on expert with Mr. Orwell's mask - now this is a normal mode objective and is much easy to complete
-Added new maps, more detailed and a map of the whole city. Added Raputo's route on the map
-Fixed the gameplay, now it's more linear and faster
-Changed the story a bit
-Fixed the compass, now it's working fine
-The locations of Lady Catherine and Mr. Orwell are now marked on the map
-Added loot, changed loot locations - now it's easier to complete the loot goals
-Changed the lightning on streets - you have more shadows to hide. You can turn off the lamp posts on many streets
-Decreased Raputo's route time, he completes the route in 27 min instead of 1h 45 min. Now you can find him much faster
-Added some gameplay hints for those of you who get stuck and cannot progress further - in the files Gameplay Hints.txt and A Tough Night.txt

Briefing

Extract from Garrett's journal :
"The Keepers are messaging me about a noble, cousin of Whitssimon's familiy, who they called Mr. Whitsimmon. The Whitsimmons are related to the Baron and seem to represent his interests.
In the Baron's absence the Whitsimmons are in fact the rulers of the city now.
It seems Mr. Whitsimmon has a very well paid job fitted for my talents.
And because my new extravagant lifestyle left me with almost no cash after the recent Lord Anders job, i have to carefully consider the opportunity. My landlord is coming in three days and the rent for my big apartment is huge.
So.. i better meet this Whitsimmon at his house tomorrow and see what he has to say.
I have to be carefull still, Lord Anders is a very influential person in town and after the breaking at his residence in Northern Auldale the police is looking for me on the streets."
