I must have got something wrong then, I don't know how to put it on fire, maybe I need an item I didn't get yet If you don't have any fire arrows, yes you will need to wait until you get an item later.

Have you been to the
vault yet? The item is there. If not, you need to go to the master bedroom and find the attic access. Go up and examine the chimney.

To anyone who felt my little tantrum / frustration venting / shouting was a little over the top this morning i sincerely apologize / grovel / please forgive me/ i prostrate myself before the community / i will lash my back with a cat-o-nine tails till i'm red raw in pain and suffering / i will lie upon hot embers whilst a herd of wild buffalo stampede across my body / i will have my tongue sliced from my vile mouth and my eyes poked out with a red hot poker.....yeah alright i guess its best just to say sorry...;)
but to all those who responded to my call to help earlier today esp margotbean, nicked and smithpd, thank you all for your advise.....i did however understand how to extract files, and even extracted the files within the zip file....my frustration came from after having installed the patch 3 times the game still was not playing and then not being able to check the install
nickie....god bless her soul has come to the rescue and a very big Thank you to her and ill post her PM to me so others who find they are not getting the extraction method working can follow her great advise
''all you need to do is unzip the contents of contrib.zip and new_dark.zip. You can ignore the rest of the files. You can unzip directly into your T2 folder or, if you have a problem with that, unzip to desktop, highlight and drag them into your T2 folder''
and that is exactly what i had worked out what to do with a previous FM install a couple of months ago....:nono::nono:
and margotbean thank you for this
''I can help with one aspect of your issues. If you right-click on the thief 2 executable (that is, thief2.exe) and choose "properties", then one of the tabs in that properties dialog will tell which version it is. In Windows 7, it is the "Details" tab, which lists "product version" as 1.22 (or 1.21 if that's the case).''
now where did i put that bleeding gamepad......:D

Ok, solved Cecil's note, but don't understand the old note.........
I also cannot break the boarded up door and the big side doors that look like the patio doors downstairs. I'm stuck and don't know how to proceed............
nickie on 4/9/2014 at 16:05
@ maga - there's another way in to the boarded up room. Have a look near a staircase up to a loft. That should get you going. I'm afraid I forgot to make a note of where the patio door key is.
Sengu on 4/9/2014 at 16:06
Actually I went to the attic but I can't find anything in the chimney. You mean the attic in which you find the well note, right?
Btw nicked, the items description at the beginning cracked me up
maga on 4/9/2014 at 16:25
thank you nickie! I got the patio key but it does not work on the upstairs big doors (to the library and master bedroom)

@maga,
You need to get a library key first. Make sure you have visited the scene of the crime in the mansion.
