I'm near the start of the first mission, not looking for help, I just saw something I have never seen before. I jumped from a ledge to the metal bridge with the patrolling archers, and of course this alerted one of them. He looked around for me, shouted "What the?!" and started shooting, but not at me. I looked around to see what he was shooting at, and he shot a bat out of the air.
That was pretty cool, and I couldn't stop laughing.

Cool! Wish I'd seen that. I'd set them as enemy so they were a bit more animated than just going back and forth but I never thought of that happening. Good shooting! :cheeky:

When I try and play this mission, all the AI are in the default T position. The sounds are ok, but no one moves. I've tried reloading, reinstalling, and I redownloaded, but I still have the problem. Anyone have any suggestions?
I'm running Windows XP.

I doubt I can help with this. Some thoughts...
* Have you any modifications or enhancements or additions to the basic Thief 2 install that might conflict?
* Any earlier FM that is not properly uninstalled that might conflict?
* Any possibility of your FM manager not fully installing NW? I used an early Darkloader.
* I'm rather rusty but as I recall any scripts are included and the files renamed so I don't think there should be any conflict there with a new script version. What about OMs? Do you have them still installed. I think I used at least one script that was built into one of the original levels.
If you do not get a solution here you might need to post again in a new thread titled on the error rather than the FM because someone knowledgeable about a technical problem might not necessarily be reading this FM thread.

I've only installed scripts in order to play other FMs. I do still have the OMs. I use Garrettloader 1.4194 to play my FMs, and it seemed to go smoothly. I'll give it a go in DL though, and if that doesn't work I'll post a new thread. Thanks!

I'm playing this one again. Obviously had no trouble last time, but now, I am at the part where you have to shoot the elevator buttons through the grate. Neither will do anything.
Any ideas?

I'm in the starting area. I've found 3/4 secrets, 1015 loot, read all notes numerous times. The South Gate isn't opening. I assume this has to happen so I can get the key to progress to the next areas. I've rope arrowed to an area with boxs and an orange door (non frobable). I've even tried going down the outside of the tower, and ended up behind a frobbable gate which needs a key.
I'm using TafferPatcher 2.17 and NewDarkLoader. All the latest Scripts are in the Thief 2 directory, should I copy all the scripts over to the FM directory as well.
Or am I missing aomething.
As is usual I found the solution after posting. Look around the area you rope arrow upto.

yes, you have to upload images to a site that allows you to link to them from here (some don't). That facebook link doesn't work, by the way.

Sorry just changed it to public. Should be viewable now. I just uploaded a pic of me trapping the gaurds in the garden.
