Thanks Soul Tear, can't wait to play this one. I had to download Firefox and finally was able to download it. Something going on with IE & Google on my PC.

Supremcee, the described problem is not a bug. The game does not see Missflag.str

I've updated the link.

Update v1.3.
...

Sometime between 24 hours ago and today the link (in the first append of this thread) went bad. It's now saying "Sorry, the file you've requested does not exist".

(I loaded it on one computer, the readme listed system requirements that were much higher than that computer, then installed Thief 2 and TafferPatcher to another computer that's much closer to said system requirements, then tried to download mission... and hit this problem. I also want to play the updated first mission and the Whole Experience. :cheeky:)

Update: I used a thumb drive to transfer the mission I loaded yesterday over. However, the question is still valid - other players will want to play Mission 1.

Why are there so many unlabelled objects? (the glyph for example). I'm already 95% ready to give up on this and not because it's exactly difficult. *sigh*

Hi guys, I just finished playing Bad Venture and for some reason there is no second mission!!! Once Bad Venture ends it goes back to the main menu and I have no way of playing Raven's Nest! Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this??

And why is that? other series missions run without issues.........

In v1.2 of "Keeper of Infinity 2", MISSFLAG.STR was missing; it was nowhere to be found in folder/directory "Strings". In v1.3, there are actually two identical MISSFLAG.STR files, one in Strings\English, the second in Strings\German.

Supremcee, would you be so kind as to check which of these problems apply to your version of "Keeper of Infinity 2"? Maybe we can help you then.

The MISSFLAG.STRs are in both folders. I got the savegame from jianson which starts at the 2nd mission BUT I don't want to play on "Keeper". When I try to restart the mission and change the difficulty it kicks me out after loading screen. I can see the ShopMenu for a second and then the game crashes. I can only run from the savegame.

Strange. That does not happen if I do something similar with my own game in v1.2, but that was the version which did not have any MISSFLAG.STR at all. I did try it after moving MISSFLAG.STR into both language folders now, but still no problems.

Your version most likely is 1.4 - oops, sorry, I meant 1.3. My best guess at the moment is that it's a bug unique to that version.

Btw, did anyone verify that jiansonz' saved game was obtained with the same campaign version as the one you wish to play? If not, then all kind of weird errors may happen.

I don't know how and why but somehow i managed to run it. deleted the german string folder and then...badaboom. so thanks everyone for the help :)
