Dear Builders,
ascottk suggested I set up a sticky thread for GL issues, which should help to keep everything in the same place. There have been many duplicate threads for similar problems, so like the newbie thread, this is here for any small problems installing or running FMs, and reports of bugs and gaping holes in functionality, opinions about the interface, etc.

Isn't there already a couple of GarrrettLoader threads nailed up in the FM forum?

Some people miss or do not look at the fm forum when they post here. There were about 3 posts regarding GL & fm install issues by non-mappers and they all dealt with similar issues. This forum should be help for mappers & not general fm players. But if the players do post here then there should be one thread to deal with those issues. This could help mappers in case they made a mistake when they packaged their fm.

It might also be a good idea to put a link to the latest version of GarrettLoader or the official website in the top post.

My latest GarrettLoader problem is the loss of all original Thief2 savegames. The zip in the Allsaves folder has been over-written with T2X savegames.
This must have happened several weeks ago before I completely separated the T2 and T2X installations. I had not then appreciated the potential problems with using 3 loaders (DL, GL and T2X) at the same time.
I didn't notice the problem until yesterday, when I ran through a TMA mission to check loot for ejsmith's project. I tried a recovery utility, but I'm afraid those saves have gone for ever. :(
GL is doing a good job on T3 FMs. :thumb: But be very careful when using it for anything else at this stage of development, unless you have copied your existing T1 and T2 installations into dedicated test folders.

Wait a bit. You aren't missing a thing. A few hours or days will not ruin your life.
You have shotgunned the entire THIEF forums with this. Learn a little patience.

The only reason I "shotgunned" the forums is because I myself dont read all the forums and Im sure others do the same thing.....Just trying to improve my odds of getting a useful reply.

I don't mean to be an ass but reading the forums removes the necessity of getting a useful reply :erg:
Also posting something in the forum and waiting for a reply is a lot more work than using the search function.
