I started playing Thief gold, i install orgy textures,i´ve optmized the installation with darkloader everything runs fine videos etc, but i noticed that when i complete an objective it doesnt make that distinctive sound and does not show the msg on the screen only is checked on the objectives screen. Is this normal?

If I remember correctly, Thief the Dark Project (and hence Gold, which I do not have) does not play a sound or notify you of the completion of an objective. The sound was a new thing brought about in Thief 2.

same thing that i've got sometime ago...
check your media player settings & codecs (if you installed any)
if windows media player 10 installed; just open it once and then play the game..
btw; hi every one :) watching this forum almost for 2 years;
but just decided to join :P

I've been wondering about this, too. Just now I can't recall correctly if it does play a sound and "Objective Completed" or not. I thought in Thief 1 and 2 it always did that. I think in Thief Gold it's sporadic, or am I crazy? Thief Gold seems to have some bugs. No sounds in the menus occasionally, Dark Engine giving me hell sometimes--for example, I'll walk off of a step and DIE. Wtf? I don't remember that happening to me in Thief 1.

This is the first time im playing gold but i finished the original Thief and i remenber that used to play the sounds and showed the msgs on screen whe you completed a goal and in fact you are right sometimes in gold the sounds of the menus dissapear sometimes. Anyone knows how to fix these bugs?
