Why can I not pickup any weapons except my bow in the room where you start? The sword does not highlight, and the arrows just explode on contact, I can not pick them up. Thanks!
Sting
P.S. Nevermind, I walked outside and found out about the assassin and then was able to pick them up normally. You might want to fix that bug, as they should not have exploded or highlighted until then I guess.

Okay finished the mission. It was another great sequel. I just have one question, there was a door with the water key lock on the roof that I could never open. Can you open it? If so how?
And the usual last question, when is the next sequel due out? :cheeky:

[spoiler]The water shrine has a lower and upper level. You enter from the lower level, then (if you wish) use a rope arrow to reach the upper level, and unlock the shrine's rooftop door from the inside.[/spoiler]

Just finished on expert!! I couldn't even find half the loot--must be hidden very well!! I do have one question, though--the captions kept saying to "check guide," but when I went to read "Guide to Darkthrone," it was just a blank page. Is this supposed to be?
Anyways, great mission, Sensut!!!! Castle was beautiful.

Is the Guide to the darkthrone supposed to be blank in the start of the mission ?

I have exactly the same problem as shadows - game crashes to desktop as soon as it's finished loading.
I doubt very much if it's a corrupt download, as the file unzips fine. Downloaded from Sensut's website, and filesize checks out as mentioned previously.
Edit: downloaded from rapidshare, and same bug exhibits.
Must be something to do with the way my (and shadows) Thief is configured? :confused:
For the record - 98SE, 1.3GHz Athlon, 512Mb RAM, GeForce Ti4200 128Mb (so it's not shadows' lack of VRAM), Detonators 41.09, MX300 Vortex 2 A3D v2 soundcard.
Thief 2 patched (and with NoCD crack), Darkloader 4.1. I upgraded to Darkloader 4.3 when I got the first crash, but the FM shows the exact same problem.
I had no trouble loading the first 3 of Sensut's excellent Dracula missions, or any other FM that I can think of.
Anything I can do to help track down the bug?

gorice ....I got my copy from rapidshare and it works fine. If you have broadband I could try and send it to you if its OK and you cant make rapidshare work. I used Garrett loader v 1.32 You must have patch Thief2 v 1.18
First make sure you have the custom scripts.
Scripts: Telliamed (tnhScript 1.5.2, version check)
Gaylesaver (script 1.2.0)
You wouldnt believe the castle this guy made in this mission. Nice creapy work !!
Edit...Open the Dracula 4 rar file and extract and install custon ONLY the custom scripts into your Thief 2 main directory. Not just the folder or the 2 in it but the stuff in the 2 folders. It may solve your problem. I dont think the loader does it so a manual install for the scripts is neccesary. It is called Install_CustomScripts. It will probably ask you if you want to overwrite stuff...go ahead...these are updated versions of custom scripts you may already have.
Good luck !
I am curious. Why does it say "New Member" under your name when you registered May 2001 ?
Edit 2: It sounds like yandros may have your solution if what I said dont work. I wasn't aware of that peticular bug because I havent used Win98 in a long time.

EDIT: OK problems. The mission crashes to desktop right as it almost finishes loading up the mission to play. My T2 is patched, new scripts are installed and using DarkLoader 4.3. Other fms work. I have 32MB of graphics but i don't think this would crash it...

Sensut - did you use the
OnScreenText script from Telliamed's
tnhScript right at the start of the mission? If so, it causes a crash to desktop in Win98 and WinME. You can work around this by using his latest release of
PublicScript (which would replace VK's module) and using one of the
IntrinsicText-derviative scripts, as they don't cause this problem. I encountered this while testing WLB and he provided what was then a private build of
PublicScript to fix it.

Lightningline: Thanks. But Darkloader 4.3 correctly installs those scripts from Sensut's FM.

Probably lack of posts. I haven't been very active in these forums. (hangs head in shame....)
Yandros may have nailed it. I hope this is easily fixed, because I still maintain an old 98SE machine specifically for playing Thief (and other things).
A3D v2.0 drivers for my Vortex 2 card only work really well under 98SE.
And - preaching to the converted here, I know - Thief absolutely rocks with A3D2.0 sound. :cool:

Why does he say in the readme to do it if you get a need custom scrips error then ? Which you didnt mention but I figured it couldnt hurt to try it. He must mean for Garrett loader folks but I use it. I thought Garrett loader already even had the scripts. Hmmmm ? Good luck. I'm enjoying it very much so far. Love the creapy piano music.
