@ Sly - have you got new mantle enabled? That bit wasn't mentioned by anyone as being a problem.
Edit. I've just looked at my 1.22 and new_mantle is not enabled by default so if you've updated then yours might need changing.

Interesting about new_mantle being off by default in 1.22. I recall that new_mantle was on by default in 1.21 when installing through Tafferpatcher. NewDark 1.22 instructions say to make a backup of cam_ext.cfg and two other configuration files, but they neglected to say what to do with the backup files. Evidently the 1.22 installations should read, "Copy the backup files into your installation directory to overwrite the default installation files." That is what I did, so luckily I did not have the new_mantle issue.
This point about overwriting should definitely be made in the readme and the first post, with particular attention to new_mantle.

I had SlyFoxx's problem and it was fixed by enabling new_mantle. Edit cam_ext.cfg in your main Thief2 directory and remove the semicolon in front of new_mantle.

Thanks for clarifying the instructions, prjames.

I've added a big note to the first post. I confess I'd forgotten about new_mantle existing so never thought to check it.
downwinder: the piece of paper with paint smears on should be what you need to open the vault. You need to have white, blue, purple, orange and green turned on, and all the others turned off, then the vault will open. The order doesn't matter as long as the correct ones are all on and the others all off.

Where is [spoiler]the wine or berries I need for the magic circle? Found everything else really early on. [/spoiler]
