and what do those pills do?,not sure i understand them
I ate one while next to a wall that had strange pointy bits in all four corners and suddenly a lock appeared. I got a message about discovering a box trap - so I lockpicked it and took a gear out (which I guess was disabling it?)
Basically if you see an area where you think something might be fishy or there looks to be a secret popping one of those pills will give you sort of a secret-vision and will reveal things that you normally can't see. Kind of like how the Mirror Of Return worked in that recent mission.It's a pretty neat effect - I just wish it was an item that didn't run out. I'd be using it all over the mansion if that were the case.

The rays right after the lift do hurt.Seriously :p

But I agree, some of the readables can be confusing. Maybe a native speaker should have proof read these.

I gave up on the pipes. I was able to produce several explosions with the correct pipe, but the wall stayed intact.

Chiron don't worry if you cannot reach the vault, you will have everything you need to go in mission 2, just buy some weapons and go to the villa's zone.

well i was able to win mission,with alot of things i never found uses for,like 3 key and some charm coin i found in some water but forgot where,now for mission 2,i think mission one is for those who love to uncover secrets,i did it on expert and figured i would be expected to do more before i win first part of mission,will forure have to go back to mission 1 and see what else i missed

great missions,i like it alot

aww:( was looking forward to this but I can't get any sparks on the broken wiring at the first set of pipes so I am abandoning this mission for now:(

I have the same problem.
I'm playing on WinXP sp3 and don't have Windows Defender installed.
I initially just let darkloader handle everything - no sparks.
I uninstalled the mission through darkloader, manually overwrote five files(four .osm and one .dlx) with the ones from the mission zip (after backing up my originals to another folder), reinstalled the mission - no sparks.
I uninstalled the mission through darkloader, then deleted the five script files from the Thief2 folder, reinstalled the mission, saw the "new" script files in the Thief2 folder, and I still can't get any kind of spark from the wires after breaking them and flipping the switch on. I've tried every combination of order of hitting pipe, wires, and flipping switch.
Anyone have any ideas? I've had no problems, of which I am aware, with any other FMs.

I am stuck at the start. I have found the 2 secrets in the hotel room , collected my gear, and have gone out the door and into the "fade-out and in" blue sewer. What's next? The door is locked. The ladder goes nowhere. The rope takes you to a blocked exit. No switches that I can find and no keys to be found. Maybe my installation is broken? How do you get out of the blue sewer at the start?

Gah, where do you use the spider egg..? For that matter, where is the vault key? Or are the 3 doors within the vault locked for good?
@bjack, it says somewhere don't hit the pipe,since they're weak. So it's logical to start breaking the brown pipes using your metal sword where gas is spouting from and the wires that are exposed. Theres a switch nearby that allows electricity to run...causing sparks....

bjack - you've probably got it now but the
key for the door is in the hotel room on the table.

I've got through the first wall in the sewers and found the secret up to a building. I have a key, but can't open the door. Where is the key (or other way out of this area?
