The most recent release of DarkLoader is 4.3. The full installer includes extra third-party software required for playing fan-missions. The GPL installer only contains freely redistributable software. End-users should download the full install.
As a convenience to players, I have collected the most up-to-date versions of the standard scripts. These scripts are copyrighted software owned by Eidos Interactive. You download this software at your own risk. I take no responsibility for the legal or technical consequences.
DarkLoader enables you to quickly and easily play thief fan mission archives.
DarkLoader is tested with the 1.33 patched version of Thief, the 1.37 version of Thief Gold and the 1.18 patched version of Thief 2. Thief 3 fan missions are not supported by DarkLoader.

DarkLoader is an enhancement of the ThiefLoader (v1.5) created by Andrew Bednarz and provides compatibility to existing ThiefLoader installations.
