Here is my entry for the first Speedbuilding Jam. It is a small, Mechanist-themed mission.

Scenario:When Cavador started spilling his guts, he didn't know when to shut up. At least, according to the
Pagan who contacted me last night to thank me for the whole Soulforge debacle. It's been two months
since I foiled Karras' plans. Two months since the truth got out. Two months since the public
hysteria, the lynchings, the start of the official trials, the Hammerites returning in force to cry
heresy and call for harsh justice. The Mechanists are finished.
But according to this Pagan, there's a secret Mechanist facility in the mountains just outside the
City, a facility that only a few high-ranking Mechanists even knew existed. Even Cavador didn't
know much about what went on there, only that the whole place was built to hide some discovery they
found there after following directions from a long lost precursor tome buried deep in the KD site.
Apparently, by the time I got to Soulforge, the Mechanists in the City hadn't heard from their
brethren at the site for some weeks. Now no-one seems to know if the facility is still up and
running in isolation, ignorant of the winds of change from the outside world, or if some disaster
has struck the place.
Precursor artifacts are always in demand from collectors, even if a certain Lord Gervasius is
unlikely to be in the market now that he's been disgraced for his associations with the Order. If
I can get my hands on whatever the Mechanists found up there before anyone else stumbles upon the
place, I should stand to make a tidy profit...rscorpio on 13/11/2024 at 09:06

Since you reported this problem for another mission by now: Did you check whether the Thief 2 game (AKA playing the game instead of a fan mission) does still work normally, and if so: Is the same problem present there as well?

Other missions work, and even same authors I play now Nest of Vipers, everything working , but this one Misguided Souls and yet a shadow of the Water does not work, I cannot use weapons and all creatures dont move, they stay at same place just hands to left right, but they can speak and see me
Each time I play fan mission i Get this message in Darkloader, but I press Ignore and all works, but not now in thees 2 missions:
"The LG rendered Direct Show filter was not installed and file LGVID.AX can not be found"

Should not be using Darkloader, but AngelLoader or the FMselector that came with NewDark.

But you wrote (
https://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=152744&p=2520823&viewfull=1#post2520823) here that "Nest of Vipers" did
not work for you. Has this suddenly changed, or what do these conflicting messages mean?

This is a message related only to playing certain movies. I think it is highly unlikely that this has anything to do with the AI problems you have in missions. Playing "Misguided Souls" via FMSel or AngelLoader instead of the ancient and unsupported DarkLoader, just for verifying that DarkLoader is (or is not) the culprit here, would still be helpful.

Thank you very much for advice, I will try it now. I messed up 2 missions, some work, some not.
