Somehow I missed this one, however most floors and many walls appear blue. I love blue but.....
Using TFix 1.27

I tried with this link now and it's the same. Blue textures and all. I guess I have to change that thing in the darkloader.ini file but I don't have it.

The darkloader.ini file is only relevant if you use DarkLoader to play, otherwise that file is neither there, nor does anyone have to change anything in it.
I have checked the link provided by Samantha1, and it yields three different download locations (after clicking on "Thief's New Year 2014"). Only one of these will give you a usable version of this mission.
The first download is from darkfate.org and yields a mission with normal textures in my Thief Gold NewDark 1.27 installation.
The second download is from Southquarter, but that one is somehow defective (although the zip file itself is okay), and indeed has blue textures on the walls already in the starting room.
The third download leads to TTLG.DE, but apparently is outdated - no file can be downloaded. However, as the download center of TTLG.DE has already reached its traffic limit for this month (as clicking on a valid link on TTLG.DE showed me yesterday), the situation will not change for about one or two weeks there.
Thus, try the first of the three downloads, Jonfeldt, the one with "darkfate.org" in the link. If that still does not work, then I'm running out of ideas.:erg:

I tried again with the first link and still nothing unfortunately.

I have investigated a bit further, but failed to find any explanation for the blue textures present for some people in the first link. Giving up.-sigh-

-sigh-I tried playing the mission back when it was released and had the same issues with the texture and never have been able to figure it out either. There's a spot where you get stuck because of the blue texture so I gave up.

I just tried playing this mission for the first time. I had blue textures all over. Checked your post, and downloaded the darkfate file. That resolved the issue. No more blue textures! Thanks

Didn't know you taffers were still playing this, good to see it has replay value :D
I've been thinking of maybe doing an updated/revised version of this. It might happen either this year or next :o

Guess I need to try this one out as well, since it's the season for it. :-)
