Yes, i am using WinME and Yandros does seem to have it sussed. :cheeky:
So is there anyway i can get these latest scripts, have they been released yet?
Maybe not many people have started to play this mission yet, but are most people using a Thief installation on WinXP nowadays? It seems so, because only me and gorice have encountered this problem.
EDIT: To test Yandro's theory i took out the 'version.osm' file and the mission loaded up! but i can't do any thing - it's pitch back, probably there's no environment and i can't seem to move, in any case this seems to confirm what Yandros said.

Telliamed Scripts V1.54 is available here (

You should at least try what I said a few posts up and use the ones that came in the Rar file. Even if you think Darkloader does it it couldnt hurt to try it manually. I had the problem with other missions and manually installing the scripts worked. I dont want to turn this into a technical thread so this is all I will say. Just trying to help. Once again...Good luck :)

I did, even before my very first post about the problem i had already done that. ;) The v1.54 scripts were exactly the same as my original scripts. thanks anyway. :cheeky:
I just realised that installing the (new) v1.54 scripts won't help, re-reading Yandros post it seems the problem is that the mission itself uses a certain script within the 'tnhScript.osm' file so Sensut has to choose to use a different one to prevent the crash but get the same intended result.
I also just replaced the v1.52 scripts with the v1.54 ones, specifically the 'tnhScript.osm' and 'version.osm' files and it still won't work. But then they are exactly the same scripts cos the file dates are the same! Tellimed's update was not to those files.
I also did another test by removing the 'tnhScript.osm' but leaving the 'version.osm' and this time i got the message telling me to have all the necessary scripts, proving the problem is related to that script.
Looks like i'll have to wait a while for the fix. :)

I have the four elemental hearts and I get a message telling me to check my guide but it is still blank. Whats up with that. Do I need it ? I also need to find the fire shrine. Im on my way to the air shrine.
After I accomplish each shrine I still get a blank page when told to check my guide. Has anyone else encountered this ? I can read it by opening the rar and finding guide in books but thats no fun. Do I actually need it ? I dont want to be almost done and then find out I have a script problem too.
Duhhh..I feel stupid now. I am told whare to go after dropping the water heart. I still want to know why my guide is blank :(
Mission accomplished Thanks

Correct, Sensut has to release a fixed version.

I can't get this mission to work. Never got one in a file like this. Garrett Loader will not accept it. Anyway to get this through thiefmissions.com?

Thanks Yandros, I'm working on it and I'll have a simple patch for those who can't play this mission :idea:

I need some help.
[SPOILER]I have to activate the Dark Portal now, but I can't find the key which opens the portal door on the roof. Where is it? :( [/SPOILER]

Check the patrolling haunts on the roof.
SethAC on 5/2/2007 at 11:35
Found it. One of the (now dead) undeads had it. :joke:
