T2 FM: The Mirror of Return by PsymH (Feb. 23rd 2010)

Ok. I am playing on expert, mission 2. Found the piramid, I have got the Mirrof of Return.
I an't find the personal valuables of the bandits' chief and also there is a door in a back-alley with a coffin-shaped lock on the right which I can't open.

R_G - personal valueables: search upstairs in the haunted / abandoned town for a better-furnished room. Bigger hint: think bookshelves.
I think the other item is laying around in one of those same buildings, but I wouldn't swear to that (been a while since I played it).

Thank you Sticky Fingers; found the valuables. I remember I had previously searched all the haunted house downstairs, so this time I couldn't find anything..

R_G - just remembered about the coffin-shaped 'lock'; it's actually a letterbox. See(http://ttlg.ttlg.mobi/forums/showthread.php?t=131148&p=1983214&viewfull=1#post1983214) this post.

Thanks again SF, I decided to restart mission 2.:thumb:

I have a small (I hope) problem. The Mike kindly pointed me in the right direction for the indentation in the graveyard for the tomb key in Mssion 2 but I thought he might be leading me up the graveyard path as I still couldn't find it! :D When I opened the mission in Dromed though it was there. Also there's a blue crystal thingy in the pyramid that is also there when opening in Dromed but not in game. There may/probably are others.

I've checked I have all the right scripts, files etc. and the objects folder looks OK. I thought it might just be the old occasional problem of having to copy and paste a file but I don't know which one if any might be related to objects.

Any ideas/suggestions would be great!

I realised last night that I wasn't very clear. I can see these objects if I play through Dromed but they aren't there if I play through Darkloader.

I'd really appreciate any help as I've been enjoying this immensely.

Hopefully politely bumping! I'm still trying to find a solution to my problem. I've trawled through EdGuild but nothing seems relevant so I'm back here hoping very much that someone might have a thought about my missing objects.

I'd love to be able to carry on with these missions. :(

Nickie, as I see you are familiar in Dromed. So, open the mission in Dromed and find the respective object. Open its Properties and find a line there like this: "Shape - ModelName " following by a box with a file name. What you see in the box that's the object's filename from the mission Obj directory, a .bin file. Now just check your Thief 2 Obj directory with the FM installed, and check if that object (bin file) is there.

Hello nickie, sorry that my answer is late. Hm, I'm not sure if I understand you correctly, but it seems you are confused about the fact, that not all objects are present in all difficulties. For example the tomb key and the broken crystal are not available on Normal.
So my question is: What difficulty are you playing?

nickie on 10/9/2010 at 14:56

Sensut, PsymH - thank you both so much! And you're quite right PsymH, I am playing on normal, but because I was so completely stuck I thought it must be because I was missing doing something with the tomb key. Having it in my inventory threw me. :o

Back to the drawing board then, there must be something somewhere that I'm not seeing or doing! Or maybe I'll just start over again on another level - it looks like I'm missing out on a lot more fun.

Thank you both again for your help.
