Deadly_Shadow, those objectives not ticking off is usually associated with playing this mission with an upatched version of T2 (unless you already have ver. 1.18, of course, in which case no patch is required), though there have been a few instances of it happening even with the right version.
However, as far as I know, you get all of the objectives so there shouldn't be any you haven't seen.

My situation: everything's done except for the museum visit, from where I have to steal the Baerulian Diamond and the painting called The Red Arrow. I am neart the museum, 10 meters away from the shed, where I've to go. The problem is, that when I've picked the shed door lock, a ghostly figure appears.. and it starts to patrol in the area, making me unable to escape when I've stolen the Eye of Seeing or whatever. I tried owning him with my Kharras Drahg, but then again my mission failed, because the "Don't kill any humans "objective gets the red figure in it = mission unsuccessful.
The AI, which I'm talking about, makes grunting noises and 'barks' like a dog occasionally. I can't kill it, and I cannot get past it [if I try to steal the Eye of Seeing from the shed and am ready to escape]

That sounds like the ghost of the monster that protected the Cylix in Calendra's Cistern. I'd say your best bet is to try to run and maybe jump into the canal. When you've lost it, you can climb out somewhere and get back to the Museum.

Yes, the canals are your best friend. Whenever some undead type was on to me I always jumped for the nearest canal, worked everytime. Hurts the pride a bit though, slinking through the streets like a drowned rat.
The cylix monster ghost is pretty slow, you should be able to get away from or around him. Sounds like he is in confined area, perhaps?

The creeping "monster" can appear anyplace in the mission not only by the museum (any terrain) but You can beat on him with the Dharg and gain hit points, then run away. He can't see you in the shadows, unless he sees you go into them.
So you can dodge him with a little finesse.

Great FM guys,
but, a little frustrated here. Spent hours completing Mission 2 but it wont complete. Ive given the Cylix to the Cardinal down the chute and done the escape thing, but the objective to deliver the cylix wasnt ticked off. A new one also appeared - collect stash. I get back to my room and collect the stash and get the cemetary key of that bird in there. Im sick of this shit apparently and have to destroy the cylix. I munge down to the cemetary, go down under to find cardinal and pinch the cylix. i throw it in peabody forge - that one is now ticked off, the other two are still there! I bump into Mercedes again on way back, she gives me cemetary keys again and tells me to do it again. Ive already delivered it, re-pinched it and melted it.
Whats happening, and how can i get round it to the next mission, and with all my loot intact?

If you're sure you want to proceed but the mission won't end on it's own just use the old 'end mission' key combination: (Shift)(Ctrl)(Alt)(End). I always hold down the three (Shift)(Ctrl)(Alt) keys and then press the (End) key. That should end the mission properly and allow you to proceed to the next mission.
Luck!

yeah but how do I retain my loot to buy stuff for the next mission
also, doesn't anyone else have this problem, or know why it happens?

well i had a problem too with the objectives in mission 2 (i have ver.1.18):
the objecitves didn´t show up!There were empty (unchecked) boxes from the beggining and when a new objective was added a new unchecked box with not a single word appeared!How i ended the mission? I read the readme in the "extras" (or somehting like that) folder in the thief2 directory and tried to figure out, most of the objectives are there, except for the Kharras´s Drahg but i was lucky with this, i came upon it by pure lack and then show the message "objective complete"...
no idea why this happened (reinstalled CL didn´t solve the problem), it seems there´s something wrong with coding?
anyway, sublime story/gameplay definitely 10 out of 10

I have a question - I'm in Act 2
[SPOILER]After I put the Cylix down the chute in the Cathedral, all of the undead come out, and the difficulty of this level increases tenfold. I haven't done the museum thing or the vampyre blade or pretty much any of the other objectives because I thought i was on a timer to get rid of the Cylix. So did I do this in the wrong order or are all these undead supposed to be here, impeding my progress? I was looking forward to a nice big city but now i can't go two steps without running into a ghoul. Hell, even if I kill them, that "mist" appears and kills me, or some invisible guy comes and kills me, or something. SO - is there anything to make killing the ghosts and goblins easier? Or did I do it in the wrong order, and should I start again? It's kinda frustrating....[/SPOILER]
