Ok, here's my problem. I installed Darkloader to play several FM's that Garrett loader couldn't handle. One of said FM's was 'EVIL THIEVERY' from the Halloween contest. Now I can't get rid of it. In other words if I try and load the original game through darkloader it still plays 'EVIL THIEVERY'. If I try and use garrettloader it says that it can't load a mission until I reload the original missions via darkloader.B ut as I said it won't or can't reload the original game. I tried removing and re-installing both garrettloader and darkloader and still run into the same thing. Also strange is the fact that I no lolnger have 'EVIL THIEVERY' as a file on this machine, it's been deleted. I looked at the dark.cfg and other config files in the T2 directory but couldn't seem to find anything obvious. Any Ideas??

I don't know if you'll now need to do a complete uninstall/reinstall of Thief and Darkloader, but before you started messing directly with files and folders at all, did you use Darkloader's "Install" to get Thief back, as in, did you tell Darkloader to Install the official game, or did you skip that or try it later? It is a common mistake, if you made it.

@Jackthief - This should be over in the FM forum. In any case, you've deleted the archive file, but it sounds like you've still got remnants of Evil Thievery leftover in your various Thief2 directories from installing it, this needs to be cleaned up. This often happens if you alternate back and forth between Garrettloader and Darkloader without returning Thief2 to it's base state first.
Check the (

Thanks Brethren, that did the trick. Case closed
