I removed the NVCSript.osm because it was making Garrettloader unstable. I just went back to the original NVS.osm and started over again.
When I push the button, I get the message "You suddenly feel much lighter" comment and the door closes. But thats all. Jumping is normal.

That's bizarre. If you're in the room with the door closed, the only thing not working is the lowered gravity in that room, which is entirely original LGS stuff and nothing custom. Can you email me your savegame ZIPped up?

Ok...I'll try to get that set up.
I don't mean to cause work for you. This could be something totally unrelated to your fan mission as it's the first time I've been using Garrettloader for quite a while and it's a fresh install. I always assumed I'd have to tweek things.

To clear things up here, Garrettloader is acting up regardless of this fan mission or the Script.osm file. It was more of a coincidence. I was having dual, unrelated problems.
The mission problem still occurs, but the solution may in the end be the original suggested...ie) inserting the Script.osm as instructed. But I'm going to leave this alone for a while and come back to it another day. I need to play different FM's and make sure all other issues are dealt with.
Many thanks for the help and assistance.

Wow, spooky and nice looking (yeah, and a bit repetitive but the reason for that is explained in the readme). Cool gameplay if you like undead, fighting and exploding weapons.
10/6885 loot and 0/6 secrets, LOL!!
(I found the scarab plaques, destroyed them, saw talisman symbols and weird alcoves and small dark squares. Can't do anything with them - nothing to frob, they don't react to my mace or fire. And King's crown can be 'used' as a key. King's door, wtf? I am clearly missing something big here...gotta go back and try some more things)
EDIT: I never found anything else, so I am now following ricebug's walkthrough. On the upper floor, in the room with the water talisman plaque, he says I should frob the two other caskets in the room, but they are not frobbable for me (I look by having my loot icon out to see if it shrinks). Could this be a NewDark issue?

I just played through this mission last week in NewDark so I know it works at least for me. Have you been able to get any of the talismans yet? When you break the placards in the four rooms and change them to the elemental placards, sarcophagi in the room usually become frobbable, like in the water room you're trying. If that's not happening then you probably have a script issue. Try replacing the NVScript with the one linked to above in my post from 2011, then reload the game.

No talisman yet. Are the caskets supposed to highlight?
I tried the script you linked to. Doesn't help. Or do you mean I should start a new game?
EDIT: starting a new game did not help either. I smash the plaque so the water talisman symbol comes up. Caskets do not light up, and frobbing them does nothing.

I'm on holiday and won't be able to help much for a few days, unfortunately. If you happen to have Dromed installed, you might try opening the mission in it just to see if the monolog complains about not being able to load NVScript (or any other resource, for that matter). Otherwise, when I get back home I'll look closely at what script is supposed to trigger the sarcophagi to become frobbable and try to diagnose it more definitively.

I was trying to download this three times, but I get "Failed- network error"
is there something wrong with the DL link?

No problems with the 'Full Version' on thiefmissions.com.
The 'No Briefing' version does not exist, however.
