Better try this:
1. Uninstall GarrettLoader.
2. Uninstall Thief DS.
3. Install Thief DS.
4. Install GarrettLoader.
5. Install Furious Flames.
You should reboot your machine every time you are prompted to. Do not install additional stuff like John P.'s textures.
Hope this will help.
What is Furious Flames? i don´t have that.

...i guess i?ll have to wait for an update version or a new patch to play this mission in good conditions.
cardia1, sorry but I am not going to update my mission any more. First of all, I don't have your bug, so I simply don't know where to start improving. Secondly, you didn't give me enough information about it: in what places exactly you have it? when? in what moment exactly you saved? have you tried to load the same save once again? TDS spoils saves rather often, so maybe, it is not my fault at all.
And I agree with
pwyll.
Fresh clear reinstall of TDS can help. Also you can skip GarrettLoader. Steps in detail:
1) uninstall the game and delete both its folders (with the game and with saves). Also you may check the register for mistakes.
2) install TDS again, but the pass to it should have NO SPACES (for example, "D:\GAMES\Thief3\")
3) patch the game to version 1.1 (if you need it, of case). The patch is here (thanks to The Dark Fate): (
http://darkfate.ru/?show=files%2Fpatches%2Fthief3%2Ftds_patch_1.1.rar)
4) replace the exe-files with files from here (thanks to The Dark Fate): (
http://darkfate.ru/?show=files%2Ffan-missions%2Fneedful_stuff%2Ft3main.exe_and_t3.exe.7z)
5) run the game, load the inn and make a save.
6) unpack the mission strait into the game's folder and add the content of the file "user_patch.ini" into the file "user.ini" manually (it's in the main folder).
7) start the game by pressing the exe-file named "t3.exe" (it is into ...\System subfolder).
ADDED LATER:
Forgot to say! Self-evident advantage of this method is avoiding many types of bugs. But this method has it's weak point too: you'll have to re-install TDS every time for installing next fan-mission. I mean, GarrettLoader is created to take care about this problem without bothering you. But by skipping GL you'll have to think about such things by yourself. It's easy: all you need to do is simply to repeat actions - all the steps from number 1 to 7 once again.

Ravenhook on 18/10/2010 at 17:36

@Alic
The special arrows cannot be selected by the numbers. The just scroll until you find the correct one as Ravenhook suggested. This makes the usage of Vodka arrows tricky but you will get used to it. Select the arrow with scroll and after you hit the victim, press "1" quickly for the blackjack and smack him in the face.
@Hope Vincent
There is already a hint about it. You can buy a help from the Thieves Guild for 3000g at the Pagan shop. After that you will find a member of the Guild next to the fountain in the Riverside station. He will give you the ticket.

Sure, I am. Moreover, I'm working over a tutorial about making such a robot in TDS. But I'm a bit tired right now, so I'll have a rest and wait till all the Cabal's missions will be released.
