August FM News Update
- 12:38:30 AM - The Phantom
The Circle's FM News update, based on the latest update from the upcoming missions list.

To begin with the authors who make an appearance in the list. These are Christine, Greenhorn and Snake.

Christine, a long-time dromeder with many missions behind her name, returns with a project involving pirates, called "Pirates Ahoy!". It is developed in cooperation with Greenhorn. Christine worked with dromEd, Greenhorn made the custom objects and AI's and the story is written by both. The result will not be a single mission, but a 4 mission campaign. The project is as good as finished so expect a release soon. The info is at place 13 in the list.

Third author is Snake, who is working on his first thief mission. It was a long time uncertain wether or not this project would be completed, but now the author seems determined to finish it. Except this mansion mission to be released later this year. Info at place 65.

4 authors have their info removed because the mission they worked on has been released. Digital Nightfall & Team (with Mission X), intruder (with Keeper Investigations), Theker (with The Last Hope) and Turcaill (with Evirath's Misery). Special mention goes to Mission X, the second part in The Circle of Stone and Shadow series and sequel to Gathering at the Inn. After years in the making this project is finally released and the result is well worth the wait! You can grab the mission, as well as the others, from the links found in the threads on the forum.

Nightstroll's mission "First Snow" is also removed from the list, but for another reason. The author lost most of his work and has to restart from scratch, which makes a release this year unlikely.

Several authors posted new screenshots of their work in progress. CrackedGear with new pics of his T3 mission Silence Part 2, HipBreaker (Eclipsed Resonance) and DrK (Rocksbourg Part 4) with ones of their Thief 2 missions in progress, and darthsLair with screens of his upcoming Thief Gold mission (The Phoenix hath Risen).

Finally, several short news items:

  • Just Friends 2 by bassmanret is still being worked on. The first mission is currently under beta testing, and the author hopes to release both missions before the end of the year.
  • Brynolf's first fan mission, called Redemption, is nearly ready and currently being tested.
  • darthsLair revealed the story he has in mind for his upcoming mission, which is near beta stage.
  • Ermana is making good progress with her Thief 2 mission in progress (Veranda) and beta testing should begin shortly.
  • The jailbreak mission which john9818a is working on is close to release. Currently the author is looking for alpha testers.
  • Krush the Second resumed work on "Amoral Dilemma" and posted several new screenshots.
  • A message in the thread "Having a Ball" reveals that madwolf will most likely never finish his unreleased missions.
  • The Long Taff Goodbye, nicked's latest mission, is ready and currently under beta testing.
  • Wille's Mystic Gems Part 2 is currently under beta and should be released soon.
  • Saturnine stopped work on his horror contest mission (Rose Cottage) and put it up for adoption.

    For the full list of changes, see this message in the FM thread.

    Until next update,

    The Phantom
