Thievery - Tenth Anniversary Community Edition

Post by Dr.Flay »

It's been creeping around in the shadows for 10 years, and finally the ultimate "Stealth-em-up" is back.
A re-packaged Thievery, with more than a few changes.
Same as the previous versions, it is still "Beta" and has a few issues (can't have everything).

The forum contains info on how to easily create a "fresh" UT install on your desktop, from your current installed copy :tu:
Mod Changes:
o Aesthetics - won't be a surprise if I said any more.
o Updated credits/intro - thanks to all.

ProMod Integration (single player and multiplayer):
o Flash and crack exploits fixed.
o Behindview disable toggle.
o FrobWake delay configurable.
o New sound system.
o Configurable lockpick sound radius.
o Sensitivity locked when paralysed.
o Scaling bow damage (pullback).
o Moss fixed.
o Silent movement for thieves based on speed threshold
o Chest resupply time increases based on guard player count
o Breath potions provide temporary immunity against crack clouds (not an antidote)
o New Flashbomb system with less punishing falloff vs distance
o Experimental fix to stop playermodels warping up/down on rope arrows and ladders
o Doublejump fix, consecutive jumps don't increase player speed
o Catfall potions are soundless to drink, now last 15 seconds rather than 20
o Some general Blackjack code fixes
o Blackjack KO radius changes based on Thief visibility, making guards in full light less likely to be downed
o Firebolts move faster and explode in a tighter radius
o Flares gutter down when thrown
o Speed potions parabolically reduce in speed towards a 0 count.
o Reduced scoreboard (no AI shown) test in action
o Mantle landing now silent
o Potion effects no longer stack, barring health and breath potions.
o Using invis is now soundless
o Moss, vine, ruse arrows may be used without breaking invisibility
o Backpedal speed fixed, walking backwards is now silent
o Para is fixed due to the backpedal change, and is now more effective
o Crack cloud reduced to 25 second duration (down from 45)
o Breath potions now cost 30
o Ruse arrow is invisible and inaudible to guards while in flight
o Other defensive arrows don't make a firing noise

ProModTen:
o Flares/Firebolts now burn moss.
o Water now makes moss grow.
o SpyOrbs replace scouting orbs.

Yes, but I believe there are some AI issues being brought up by a few people.
The official forum has people who know more. I haven't tried this version yet.

BTW. The code is now officially up for grabs, if anyone wishes to carry it on.
The AI and weather system are probably worth it alone !

...The old horse pawn I've got for thievery is awful. When it dies it lays on it's back with it's legs in the air !

I am sure I have some. I remember doing the screenshots because they looked so stupid :lol2:
It took me ages to get them to work as I did not know it was for Thievery (no readme).
...boy was I disappointed !

So wrong on many levels :barf:

Shame the author never finished it.
Shame the author didn't look for an existing horse model.
Shame the author did not study animal biology.
Shame...
just shameful.
