I am playing the mage tower mission, but the walkthrough says that the Earth tower should have grass covered ceilings, the one I have doesn't! :mad: The floor is rock and the sides and ceiling are metal! :wot: As a result I can't finish this mission.:( Does anyone have a save game? Or maybe someone could send me the miss 16 from their cd?
Thanks

Could you post a screenshot first? I need to see what's happening. Textures are usually the sign of another problem, not the mission file.
In case you don't know how, go in-game and press Alt+F10, and then go look in your Thief Gold install folder for a file named dump000.pcx or dump---.pcx, where the hyphens represent the three digit number.
Either upload the file, or upload it to an image sharing site that recognizes the pcx format.

You have checked all the four towers and have the right one?
As I recall the Fire tower was a lot of metal. jtr's suggestion is good. If you can't find a conversion application for PCX to BMP, or JPG, may I suggest XNVIEW.COM
The application will read and convert nearly every graphic file.

Yeah, I want to verify whether or not it's the Fire Tower, somehow. I've only played that mission once and don't remember being able to get into the Fire Tower before the Earth Tower.

Since the key to each tower can be found in one of the other towers, I'm pretty sure you have to do them in a specific order.

Exactly the point. Texture problem or Fire Tower problem.

Iirc, isn't the earth tower mostly rock until you get fairly high?
He could be having that bug where the rock elevator isn't there, and thinking he needs to climb...

Well, I can't get my screen shot to work. Don't really know how to do that stuff and it is just a pink square. I tried xnview and infranview, again a pink square.
Anyway, I got the key from the Water mage tower, so it has to be the Earth key. There are floating, flat boulders that you have to jump on to get to a platform with stairs that go into some hallways. The hallways have a yellowish rock floor and the walls and ceiling are gray metal. I am supposed to shoot a rope arrow into the ceiling to climb up to where the chest that contains the next key is. I can not shoot a rope arrow into a metal ceiling. Apparently my Thief Gold is missing some textures. It's really no big deal. I just skip that mission every time I play. Sorry for the inconvenience.
