That's not a new monster. It's my ex without makeup.

Wow - looks like they play with the gamma ALL the way up - Garret's
cloak looks almost bleached white.

Good for them Seriously, screenshots taken from a dark game that's
played in a dark room do not show up very well on a web site when
viewed in a flourescently illuminated cubical. Almost all of the
screenshots from Thief 3 that I've seen previous are far too dark for
me to tell what's going on.

I just load the images into a graphics program and alter the gamma level
so I can see all the details.

That's what I do but replace the word 'just' with 'have the
irritating nuisance of having to'. I've never understood this
gamma difference between systems. I mean, why isn't the web page
dark as well?

Here's a link... http://world.altavista.com/

'idg' image file? that's a new one on me. I was a little
concerned but my image viewer can handle them.

I like these images; they have probably been sharpened up later
but they look almost illustrations from an old book.

Imagine fighting that guy in the 4th picture with just a dagger!
Clear incentive to play stealthy I reckon!

Can anyone translate the last sentence of Page 3 better?
Babelfish gives....

"Again and very practically: Saved may now locks attach, in
order to lock up for instance guards. "

....which suggests possibly one CAN relock doors which we
understood before was not possible. I wondered if they changed
it.

I'm not German, but I'll give it a shot:
"New and very useful: Garrett can now himself lock doors, in order to trap
guards."
As I read the sentence you may even be able to lock a door that was open to
begin with. But then again my German isn't perfect.
