Yeah, I think that is an object limit problem with blood, arrow and explosions. The same problem when you can't reload in my 1st version. I was forced to reduce this one, now, it is too short, and the game crash with too many object. But if you reload before beat him, it shall be ok.
Sorry for the disagreament with it, and all trouble. :(
You have to kill him with your sword or fire arrow.
It CAN crash, but it won't crash ALLTIMES. So, if you reload and try to kill him again, it could be ok. This man is Thom, the fight is inevitable.

This gorram bastard won't die without taking the game with him :devil:
I backstabed him with a sword: crash
I killed him with my sword in a fair fight: crash
I blew him up using mines and powder kegs: crash
I sniped him with broadheads: crash
I clubbed him to death using my blackjack: crash
Hell, I can't even drown him since there is no water nearby.
Could you perhaps upload a savegame with this guy already being killed? I'm not keen on spending my whole weekend trying to get rid of him...

I'll try doing something, or gimme one of your savegame. I'll do the necessary.;)
Or another version... Halas...

OK I'm stuck !
Playing as guard.
Where do I find the switch to the den ?
I've spent 2 hours wandering around the tunnels and sewers along with all the bluecoats. The captain is near the door of the Restaurant, but won't speak to me.
I've seen references to a Roulette table switch. There is one with a frobbable wheel, which I've tried lots of times.
Help would be appreciated.:confused:

If you frob the wheel, in the casino, then, the captain shall be teleported near the casino's entrance.
If this thing won't happen, then saddly, you get a bug. Sometimes, these things happen in all fun mission, I get something like that with The Dead of the Winter, for exemple. When the obj limit is high, that things can happen. Thing strange, this bug was never happened into my mission, it is the first time, I hear something like this. Crash when you kill Thom or Magrin yes, but now...
When, you are in front of the captain, sometimes, you have to wait for some second moving, to let him speak. I don't know why. But if you have the objective "Find the switch", then this is a problem. Have you got the ORIGINAL Gen.osm and Convict.osm?

Thanks for the reply FireMage.
Using the osm files I use for all FMs.
It seems I have a bug. The captain is inside the doors upstairs, near the main door to the street, He won't speak to me even if I wait a long time.
The objective 'find the switch' has not ticked off.
FireMage on 29/4/2012 at 14:36
:( Ok, so, this a passing bug. If you restart, you won't have any return from this bug. Except if your are very unlucky.
And please: This is a COP version and NOT A GUARD version:nono:. The Cop is in the street with Truart when guards are sleeping in the manors. A cop know what is a book, ink and paper. A guard just a littlt bit, get it?:cheeky:
Have you play in thief version? no problems?

I'm kinda stuck. I'm playing as Guard, and I'm at the workshop under Donal's mansion. I killed Magrin, but don't know how to advance now. I think I need lockpicks for the grate where I saw Rueben run away, but I don't know where to find those. A hint, anyone?
Edit: The ancient ttlg rule of finding something just when you posted is in effect again. If someone else can't find them, the lockpicks are in the room with the big table, in the area with the I-shaped carpet. On my way again!
Edit2: I'm now at a point where I can't play further. As soon as I tell the captain Rueben's address so the cops can go there, the mission crashes. But if I ignore that and kill Thom by myself, the mission crashes too. Too bad, I had fun playing it. =/

I just can't understand why Thom crash the GAME!!
I'm investigating about it.
