I was spieling about the gif thread, but the tone felt wrong so I killed it.
Nice gif.

The longer this thread goes without someone posting the winning combination, the greater the likelihood that the winning combination will be posted by Skynet.

We tried some more “classic” locksmith-default combinations.
None worked.

Did you try just knocking, politely? Maybe somebody is just trying to get some privacy in there. Try offering cookies?

Perhaps you should try using an Ouija board to ask the ghost of Richard Feynman to give you some suggestions.

That was a bank vault, not a safe, IIRC. Burning into a safe this size with a thermic lance would definitely destroy whatever’s inside.
Somebody demonstrated one of these on a big block of concrete at Burning Man some years back, it was pretty impressive.

Look up thread, there’s several mentions of that problem. And somewhere in there a cruddy copy of a mythbusters segment where they tried it. Not sure how big the safe/vault is in Thief. But the one they actually tested was inspired by, and the same size as the one in The Score. Probably in the 5 foot tall range. IIRC actually watching the full episode it took them lots of actual lances and good amount of time to burn their way in. And it toasted absolutely everything inside, including the safe’s own internal bits. I don’t think that’s a practical way to open any safe/vault regardless of size. A real world bank vault might take days to burn through. For Rob’s little safe? I suspect it might just burn up the whole damn thing.

Four hundred replies, and I’ve only just realised the simplest possible solution. @beschizza, just photoshop the damn thing open.
