I usually do not install every bell and whistle with T2Fix, and yet it worked for me. It must be something near-basic that is required here.
EDIT: Found a hardcopy of my selections when installing T2Fix for my Thief 2 installation. I only selected "NewDark 1.27", "Complete Mission and Resource Fix" and "Thief 2 FM fixes". Selected "Default" for "Video preset". Selected "Force VSync", "Enable Multisampling", "Enable New Mantle" and "Enable Mantling corrections" in "Advanced Options". Everything else was deselected. That should limit the things to install until the mission is playable.

I tested it with T2Fix_1.27d "Basic -New Dark and Fixed Resources" and it worked fine. But if you select Custom Installation and do not check any of the boxes(do not select anything) it does not work properly. I think some feature of the "Complete Mission and Resource Fix" is required for the mission to work properly.

i did regular install of 1.27 left last option unchecked as it was not needed,textures pop in and out of game while playing,npc's appear and disapear so you cant blackjack them,ladders dont appear unless you bump into them,some doors are pure black and you have to yolo through them hoping nothing bad is on other side
i like first version better,was never able to make it out of mines :(
i ran it on fmsel from thief 2 game
windows 7 1.6 ghz,4gb of ram=junk i know

Don't know why this weird things appear on your installation.. No one reported anything like this until now but people used Angel Loader on tests.. maybe Fmsel is the culprit? I use windows 7 too.. 4mb of ram too.. very similar conditions to yours

I played through FMsel on Win7 and had absolutely no problems.

the problems that Galaer, Pavis, and downwinder are having are due to the default object or refs limits being exceeded.
Master of Dromed, i think youve increased your object/refs limits in your dark.cfg, but players wont have that. you need to include an fm.cfg with your mission with the values you are using for
obj_min,
obj_max, and
max_refs.

Ran into not being able to climb rope arrows, invisible NPCs right away. Applied latest T2Fix and everything then worked perfectly. Guess I was missing the latest version for a while.
Mission is much improved, I thought I took my time with it, but still missed a lot of secrets!
Master of Dromed on 9/9/2021 at 19:21
Yes i increased object/refs limits in dark.cfg indeed. Thank you for your help vfig, i will release an update as soon as possible with the fm.cfg included.
Edit: Mission updated to version 4.1.
Update changes: Added fm.cfg file which was missing from the mission archive.
