What if instead of sharing an OM mission someone just placed Garrett inside the room and then saved the game and passed the savegame to the OP?
It solves the problem without being illegal since we can share savegames.

Oh for crying out loud... :nono:
Anyway, you don't even need to edit the mission, just load it in DromEd, hit Shift+Q to enable fly mode, type "physics" into the console to disable collisions, and fly through the wall. You can turn physics back on and hit P to unfly afterwards.

I only became acquainted with Shift+Q two weeks ago!:thumb:

I think it'd be more fun to add a "bonus" objective to Soulforge and actually create a way for Garrett to get into the chamber without affecting the rest of the level (or the game).

Replace the bogus objective with a bonus objective.

I don't think there are any issues with altering official levels (as long as you're not making money on it).

A Thief 2 Gold project: Maybe link the Quote List easter egg to the door. If a player assembles the egg, Karras exits the room (is deleted), the voice-overs stop, and he leaves the door unlocked. Or just leave Karras patrolling around oblivious with the door missing, I s'pose.:)

You know, we may mock and laugh at Karras.
But, hey, he managed to build a room that even a master thief can´t get inside.
Now that´s something to be praised. That´s a work of genius.

apart from doesn't the one side look like a open-ish grid showing the outside?
to tell the truth, i was amazed the other day to see how much detail was made for the outside of soulforge even though you never see it..

Ah, didn't realize thief had no-clipping mode like doom. This is the easiest way by far to get in.... No editing of the mission at all.

There is no point in doing this as even a beginning dromeder can get in there; just see what NV posted. Anyway, I can't be sure, but I don't think sending the save game would work because the marker wouldn't be there in the unedited person's copy of the mission.
