So I just downloaded a Beta version of Timon's new FM, and for the first time I can remember, when the game starts, I just get a black screen. The opening movie plays fine, the loading screen works like normal, and it sounds like the level starts... I can hear the ambient music, I see the light gem, and I can still go to the menu and map etc, so it isn't frozen… but it's just black screen, and moving and jumping give no indication they are working… any ideas?
I'm on Windows XP and have been playing Thief FMs for more than five years with little problem...

Maybe the mission starts in a black room waiting for Garrett to be teleported. Sounds like you are missing some script.

I had the same problem on some other mission.
Upgrading thief to 1.22 solved the issue for me.

I don't think it's the beta itself. It plays perfectly well for me.
Edit. The Readme isn't complete yet but it does says v1.22.

I can't imagine it would be a problem with my Thief install, would it? I actually had Prezent loaded up just before (the Polish version) … not sure why this would suddenly happen!?

I've not seen you in the testing forum. Are you testing this separately? What have you downloaded? There was a problem with a version of Beta 3.

Questions about a beta, both technical and play related, should be confined to the beta testing forum, I think. Give timon a chance to sort it out.

My apologies...
