I'm pretty ignorant about this stuff but for info, I have a GoG version and checking my MODS folder and cam_mod, it looks like I have the EP installed and I can see the correct pictures.
Thanks Nickie, I don't use any ep, but this sounds like it is the fm loader not extracting the obj/txt16 folder.
I use fm-selector, and never experience problems like this. What I like about fm-selector is that it creates the fm operating folder, and everything needed for the fm remains in this folder, and can't mess up the t2 directory like darkloader does.

What fm loader are you using? It makes me wonder if the ep is overwriting the fm obj/txt16. Now that 2 have reported seeing standard thief paintings. It works best in fm-selector, or is this what you are using?
Do you see this?

I am using DarkLoader the newest version. And before every mission I reload the original missions to start fresh. The image above is not the ones I am seeing they are the generic paintings found in almost all missions.

I also use FMSelector. It wasn't until something came up in a test and I read this thread that I realised the EP was installed on my new pc. I must organise a standard installation tomorrow. Unless I'm completely barking, I think I just need to rename or delete the ep.crf and then make a copy.
Testing is so complicated these days. Testing with and without the EP and with FMSel and then with Darkloader. I get so confused!

OK I just ran it with FM Selector and the paintings are like they should be??
Must be a DarkLoader thing. Thanks for the info I will play it again to see if I can get it the code the proper way. :cheeky:

Some help here if you don't mind people :p
Pedro,or someome else, please...
I only see the A,B,C,D entrances with painting on each wall,but they are the known ones that we see all over Thief missions and of course I allways get killed after the music stops. By the way,does Garrett's scream of death all ways scares the hell out of you people as it does to me EVERY time I hear it even when I see it coming... or is it just me? :eek:
Thanks Pwl, that helps to know you are using DarkLoader.
Hi NightChild, What fm loader are you using?
The reason I use fm-selector is that it creates it's own fm operating directory(Folder), so that none of the fm resources can mix with the Thief 2 directory. If Darkloader/Garrettloader crashes, it will leave a giant mess in the Thief 2 directory. This won't happen with fm-selector!

Garrettloader, never happened to use the FMloader so far, but any way I see a big green salad with 2 rows of paper dyno-birds at the bottom of the salad :p
And I will not bother to cross- or- whatever my eyes to see any 3d image/movie or anything similar any time from now to next eternity (nothing to do with Pedro's work, just my persomal dislike ) So ...please..please.... help..!!!! (I need somebody...:cheeky: )

I sent you a pm with the code.
Hi Pedro, you may want to suggest using fm-selector over all of the fmloaders in your release thread, cause anything else doesn't appear to work for seeing the right paintings. They see the stock Thief 2 paintings.

I can confirm too, all I use is Darkloder and the images weren't visible until I disabled the EP. This is concerning because I always assumed custom FM content would override the EP. Now I'm wondering where else this has happened and I just wasn't aware of it. Is there a way to change or fix this and still use Darkloader? In general, I prefer DL to FMSel.
And I'm having no luck viewing the codes, but I'll keep trying... :(

My thought too concerning the ep, as I never heard of any problem with DL or GL not extracting an fm folder. A new path must be made in DarkLoader/Garrettloader for the ep, and included in TafferPatcher,or anything using the ep.
