I have looked at 2 walkthroughs and followed them step by step to find the key that's supposed to fall from the grates in the ceiling. It's Bay 6013, Chapter 2, Shipping and Receiving. I presume the key, as all other items that can be picked up, sort of lights up when you can pick them. I am not seeing anything at all. I've tried crouching and standing, and I cannot find that key.
Any help please? I am so frustrated at this point.
Thanks

So you've opened the grates by pushing the button in the cold storage room on the second floor of Mynell's? The key should have just dropped to the floor. You haven't already accidentally picked it up, have you? You could also climb up and make sure it just didn't drop(though I've never heard of that happening.)

The key changes location based on difficulty. On Expert, and Hard, the key is on top of the freezer, and falls into it when you press the button to open the ceiling grate. On normal difficulty level, the key is in the spider pen, in a moneybox in the corner.

Thanks for your replies. As it turns out, while I waited to see if anyone would respond, I looked through a couple more walkthroughs, and one of them did mention that on Normal it was in the cage with the Spider. I had tried with the rope arrow to get the key before it fell and by hitting the button to open the grates. No wonder that bloody key wasn't in there LOL.
Thanks again.

Glad you figured it out. I'll toot my own horn here though, and suggest that if you're playing the Thief 2 original missions, you might consider using the complete original mission bugfix pack I released recently called AM16's Thief2 Fixed. It's bug fixes only, not enhancement, so for the most part, you wouldn't even be able to tell a difference, other than one doesn't have a lot of bugs the other does.
