Hi - thanks for previous help guys.... I have now
[SPOILER]destroyed the top and bottom of the power source, but not sure what to do next or where the kidnapped girl is. Is one supposed to wake up the awful skull creature out of the tomb or not? (he can see me in complete blackness). [/SPOILER]
Many thanks in advance!

kimberley - Head back up to the first level of the tomb, the one with the stairs up to the outside. There are a number of staircases here and one of them leads down to the spot where Jemola was imprisoned.
nil8hate - It disappeared?? You found it in the Metalwright's house. There are 2. One in his apartment upstairs, in the corner of the workroom and one in Jemola's, on her workbench.

I have finished all objectives shown, including 4 optional ones and taken Jemoela across the bridge and the game won't finish. I locked her in the mages compound and went all over the map again and found more loot - but was still unable to finish after re-releasing Jemoela and taking her back across the bridge again.
Really good map - a lot bigger than it first looks, great city area and very hard underground tomb area when ghosting. I would really love to finish this map.
I have just finished Quirk's new map (BrokenHammers) which also has a final objective problem (among numerous others) - can't finish the FM after completing objectives.
This FM needs some minor tweaking/de-bugging and it will be great.
I just love Thief and the FM's you guys build will keep it on my machine for years to come. Keep up the hard work and thank you for making them for us.

Stuck ...
[spoiler]
I've seen a lot of talk about destroying the top and bottom power sources in the large underground area. I am under the cathedral and I've read the little diagram about collapsing the nexus, but I have no idea how to "destroy" these power sources. Is there some room I am missing? I have read the guys diary, been down to a lava area, have been in an area that spawn those eyes, have seen the tomb with the mummies, etc...
Am I missing an item?
Help please....
[/spoiler]
EDIT: Nevermind, I figured it out. Guess I didn't look close enough.
[spoiler]
But I only had to destroy the top cone and everything went down. I don't think I ever saw a bottom one. I mean, I killed that fire skeleton below the huge skull, but that was it.
NOTE: for those who get stuck on this ... look for the translucent green cone that emits the energy beam in the room with all the skeleton guards. Easiest way to destroy it is with fire arrows.

This is quite a nice mission, but some of the indoor texturing (the ground floor of the mansion, for example) and object placement is a bit sparse. Well... I have just finished playing Une Nuit A Rocksbourg so that's going to happen I guess. ;)
Thief has a total brush limit (objects+rooms+terrain) of 7000, and I was right at the limit as is. It just cannot cope with anything less sparse for a map of this size.
@teemac
Not sure why it does not finish for you. The beta-testers had no problems with the more recent versions (ffox must have got it to finish 10 times on his own). I am guessing you already tried getting her a bit further than the bridge, as far as the T-junction say (though it should trigger before that)? Does the objective tick off on the list? Is it possible it is your set-up, do other FMs complete? Anyone else have this problem?

I have the same problem. The only difference (maybe) with mine is that I still have an optional objective (find the holy cog ..) that I haven't done. But since it is optional I figure the mission still should have ended when I got her over the bridge.
Again, the objective to escort her ticked off, but the mission did not end. I had met all my other required objectives (loot count, etc.) I was playing on "so-so" difficulty and I use Darkloader 4.2.
EDIT: To be specific, these are the objectives and their states at the moment I *think* the mission should end.
[spoiler]
1. Get Jemola To Bankfoot - Done and checked off
2. Follow the Intruder - Done and checked off
3. Get 2500 Loot (optional) - Done and checked off
4. Get the Holy Silver Cog ... (optional) - NOT done and NOT checked off
5. Find the Keeper Book ... (optional) - Done and checked off
6. Find the Mage's Staff of Undine (optional) - Done and checked off
7. Read Ironguage's Diary - Done and checked off

Has anyone gotten all the secrets and all of the hidden objectives ?
