Title : The Order Of The Vine
Filename : TootV1-1.zip
Author : Conor Armstrong (SilentSleep)
Contact info : sleepy@redbrick.dcu.ie
Homepage : http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~sleepy/thief
Date of release : August 20th, 2000
Version : 1.1
Mission Type : Humans, in a Castle. I'm sorry.
Description : This mission takes place in the early days of Thief 1,
before anything interesting happens.
"Another night, another job. Someone has been going to a
lot of trouble to get my attention. Every fence in the
City has told me some guy was asking how he could get in
contact with me, so I've decided to find out exactly who
my admirer is.
I've found the part of town where he's hiding out, now I
just have to find him..."
==================================================

==================================================
* Loading information *
Use ThiefLoader, or DarkLoader. You really should. Put this zip in the missions subdirectory, and let your loader program do the rest.
* Thanks To *
The now sadly defunct LGS studios.
Loanstar and Wynne, who did the voice acting. Two very talented people :). von.Eins for organising the German version, and Kyole for the translation. The Betatesters: Thiefs_Pawn, camelhammer, Mad-Sam, Saturnine, Sperry, moni_luvnin. Datoyminaytah(?), whose reskinnable objects technique I've used a lot. Anybody else who has ever posted anything over at www.ttlg.com. You're all great. All custom object models were built with Anim8or, http://www.Anim8or.com.
Thanks to Totality for working out how to actually do that, and his work with s&rs. Custom graphics were all done using Paint Shop Pro and MGI Photosuite, equally. I ripped off Oscar Wilde for a book, and one of the LGS T1 books for consistency. You! :)

This level was not made and is not supported by Looking Glass Studios or Eidos Interactive. And how could it be? :( But I made it.
==================================================
*Snipped for Youtube length*
* Hints & Tips *
This Mission has 3 separate mis files, two very small ones, and one large. When the first two end, hit Continue for the next.
At the time of writing there's 59 books, and many of them aren't pointless. Read as much as you can. The information in the books is essential for you to work out what to do next. Some of the 59 get destroyed on different difficulties, and some are only a couple of lines, so don't worry. And remember to click on the upturned
corner of some books for the next page! The map is *intentionally* inaccurate in some places, but still a very useful tool.
