There appears to be some weird bug: whenever I save in the garden area just outside the door of the house, with the stationary guard and patrolling non-combatant, then when I load that savegame, Thief crashes to the desktop. This is true even if I'm saving up on the catwalk above the garden.
But when I save anywhere else, I can load the game just fine.
Anyway, I found the old guy's storage facility, but I'm still short by 45% and one loot item. I have no idea where to go outside of the house -- a few rooms, a basement, an upstairs -- and the storage room.
Where should I go?
Thanks,
Dafydd

There is more past those shadows, I don't know if that will give you enough loot or not. Did you get everything from the Large box/chest in the storage room?
Dafydd on 5/3/2007 at 01:41
How do I get past the shadows? It's very bright in there, I can't hide, and I just get killed.
Do you mean there is more mission past that point, or just some loot in that room?
As far as the box, I got something out of the box in the storage room, but I can go back and see whether I got everything. I have two of the special loot items (the bird from that room and something else from the bedroom, but I don't know what).
EDIT: I finished the game, everything is checked off, and I'm at the gate -- but the mission doesn't end.
I ran past the shadows in the ghost room, grabbed some loot on the left, climbed down a ladder, got some more loot in a side room, went up another ladder, and out to the ledge. I now have 96% of the loot (90% required), all three special loot items, and every other checkbox checked, including the return to the gate one.
So? Isn't that it, or is there something else that isn't showing up on my list, but is still required to finish?

Yeah, after you go to the gate just back up a step and the mission will end. I have fixed it in my mission folder, but I am still tweaking it before I re-build.

I think it is
down in some cellar, in the cabinet where the zombie pops upAnd that's the reason for my post:
whenever I have picked up the candle - and don't put it back into your inventory - the games crashes rightaway while saving !
All savegames are gone along with that !
Oh, by the way: what is the locked door in the wine-cellar good for ? I never found a key for that.

Stats:
* Expert difficulty
* 19 minutes
* 96% loot
* 0 hints needed
Elements I liked:
* The haunted house part was surprising and effective.
* Right from the start, the mission has a bit of pleasant verticality to it.
Elements that could be improved:
* The cityscape in the distance looks awful, like a children's drawing. It is one of the first things in the mission I saw. Not a good start.
* There is something wrong with the ladder leading up from where Wheeler's storage room is located. I repeatedly had problems getting off at the top.
* When you pick up moss arrow crystals, the hint on how to use them appears. I doubt anyone playing fan missions needs these hints.
Bugs:
* Objectives don't show in the menu, but they appear once you are ingame.
* If you switch to the map, it shows the layout of the Blue Heron Inn.
* After the stats screen, the mission confusing loads into the end part of Blue Heron Inn.
Questions:
* There is a locked door opposite of Wheeler's bathtub, next to the stairs down to the basement. Can this door be opened?
