Thief Dark Mod

[runzwithsizorz]

Anyone play Thief Dark Mod standalone? Looked at some trailers, and seemed pretty well done. Free download and no longer requires Doom 3 to play.

This looks awesome. Here's the official update from the dev:

If you're looking to play Thief again (or even if you haven't played Thief before), this looks like a good way to do it.

I wonder what engine they used to replace doom 3?

Id made the Doom 3 engine source code public. The TDM team used this to create their own engine. It is probably almost the same as the engine from the Doom 3 game.

It's still on the same engine as far as I know, since Tech 4 is now open source. They just had to replace all of the Doom 3 assets with their own work, so they don't break any copyrights distributing parts of Doom 3.

oh. interesting. I wonder if it any good; sounds like it is a series of stand alone missions.

The dl servers are getting 'Hammered' right now *pun intended*. I found an alternate link. Getting about 2.3MB/sec pretty much the whole time.

The DarkMod's domain download page doesn't even work (returns 404).
