Sorry if this is not the appropriate place to ask, but what do I do if I get a "This mission requires a newer game version. Please update to 1.22" message with a black screen whenever I start a new game with this mission? As far as I can tell, only the T2 NewDark has a version 1.22, I can find nothing on an 1.22 version of anything Thief 1/Gold, so I'm kinda confused. And both of the loaders definitely do start TG for me, not T2 – I tried with TG FMSel (which correctly started TG automatically) and with DarkLoader (changed type=2 to type=1 in darkloader.ini, made sure it started TG). Any help would be appreciated...

Actually the NewDark upgrade applies to both Thief 2 and Thief: Gold, it's essentially an upgrade to the engine, which is the same in both games with a few changes. The thing is, you need to use Tfix to update your Thief: Gold installation, as it comes with a T2 exe and so won't work directly on Thief: Gold.

Thank you both! :)
And thank you for this FM, what a great little treat!

Thanks! It turns out I didn't have the tfix thing installed yet, even though I thought I did. So now I can play the mission, the only problem left is that objective text is invisible, I can only see the tickboxes. Is there any fix for this?

I finally finished the mission. It was a great mission but I had managed to get everywhere in the mission including behind locked doors before getting the keys (except the apartment key). So I had to backtrack to actually start the sequences needed to complete the mission and only after reading the post #16 giving the triggering sequences needed. Fun mission and well made but I wish I had known about the required triggering events to get required objects to appear. I love playing the missions so much that I will go through a lot to play them and feel nothing but appreciation for the people willing to make them.

Nice mission, although I don't think I had as much fun as I would've if the objectives had been structured better. In the end I was just running around rechecking every area randomly.
Still looking for the last 15 loot...? Any hints?
Thanks AntiMatter_16 :)

Looking at my lootlist, it can only be one thing:
book in library (15g)
check on top of one of the bookshelfs

That's it for sure. I know I didn't find anything there. Thanks!

Hey did you get rid of the journal in the mansion library in the update? I could swear I saw it at one point.
