(Reposting this here as this is a more active forum and I haven't received any response in the FAQ thread in the Troubleshooting forum)
I've run into a problem I know I've read about, but I have forgotten what the fix is.
I play Thief 2 fan missions using NewDarkLoader, the one that you start by starting Thief 2. Been playing a couple of missions like this with no issues.
But now:
- All AI in the mission are 'frozen' with arms straight outstretched. I can still hear their voices and they react to me like normal but they don't move.
- My weapons do not show up on the screen (only the little icons in the inventory) and I can't use them.

Which mission?

Sounds like your convict.osm script is corrupted.

Which mission?
Any mission I install, including if I play an original Thief 2 mission.

Will it help if I replace my convict.osm with the one from the game CD?

I don't think replacing convict.osm will help, since it's T2, not T1. Reinstalling T2 is recommended. Maybe it's the motion.db and a resource conflict.

I did replace the convict.osm, but I also noticed that
I didn't have any motiondb.bin file in the Thief 2 folder, so I copied that over from the CD. My weapons, Basso and the guards in Running Interference seem fine now, so hopefully it's working. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
