If you're getting the training mission, it seems that the Entry.gmp file wasn't replaced. Can you check to see if it's date matches the one in the zip file? Also check to see if the other map files appear in your TDS folder. (Look in your TDS folder under \CONTENT\T3\Maps.) It may be a permissions problem with Vista not letting you replace the files. (Just a guess, but a good place to start.)
Another question; which mission did you try to load? It might help us to ask better questions.

Here's where I let my noobness shine! I looked in the zip I can't find the Entry.gmp file:( I dont know where to look for the thief one either, where I installed thief at? (rhetorical) I tried multiple FMs, mainly Krellyks Labyrinth. Anyway, I reinstalled everything without watching any fancy ( and confusing ) how-to videos, I didnt change any files or anything at all like that. Downloaded krellyks again, installed it, clicked play and....*DRUMROLL*....it works! :thumb:Haven't played through it yet but it starts just fine. Weird. I pu the FM right where it wanted to be which is the first time I didn't move it ( like suggested in said videos ) maybe that's it I dont know. I appreciate the attempt!

Are there going to be any updates to Garretloader ? Hasn't it been 4 years with no updates ?
I mean, the GUI needs a SERIOUS overhaul, and the program needs optimizing to stop it re-reading every FM ZIP each time it loads up (quite annoying when you have hundreds of FM's).
And it doesn't remember the sort order for the FMs.
I'd like to use it, Mr Potter is a great guy, and really helpful, but until it's deficiencies are fixed, Darkloader is a better option.

I got an error when I tried installing Krellek's Labyrinth (using GL v 1.23):
Also getting
Help? I've used GL before my recent OS reinstall, so I'm wondering what's up. I chose Lite when I first opened GL, let it replace my exe so I could play FMs, let it move my save folder (after which it crashed the first time with some VB permission denied error). After it crashed the first time, it suggested to try going back to the default Thief 3 missions, then installing the FM again (it crashed).
Ugh...
Had same issue, and renamed zip file to similar name but without the ' apostrophe.
Renamed Horns of Canzo 2 zip file to HoC2-the_dragon_claw.zip, no more errors with GL reading the zip file.

You may be just confirming the solution, and showing that it applies to filenames containing a quote mark, but it looks like you are responding directly to deadman's 2006 post, which has the solution in the very next post below his. :p
