I want to take Blackmail mission out of Thief 2, edit a couple of things (as well as add some new objects here and there), and set it as a separate FM. What do I need in order to make it work? I've heard that I have to work on an unstripped mission file. As far as I know, they are available from Thief Circle, but aren't they outdated? I want to make sure that I am doing everything correctly.

I have the newest T2Fix installed (full installation), yet there is no such folder included. I would be grateful if someone could PM me the unstripped "miss9.miss" file.

How can they be outdated? They are the
original missions. They're one one of the two discs that shipped with Thief 2, but you can also get them here:

The files on the CD
are outdated because they are from before the 1.18 patch. The page in your link explains that the files on that page are from
after the 1.18 patch.

I must have installed the original missions at some point, maybe from those very Tools. (I deleted my post.)

Ah, got it, thanks for the correction.

Yes, that is correct. To reiterate, the unstripped missions can be found on your installation CDs and are often included with other downloadable releases. Thus, T2Fix does not distribute them. However, in most cases, the stripped missions included were taken prior to the 1.18 patch and are consequently different and often less detailed in certain areas. Those included on The Circle are the most up-to-date versions.
