You can use Darkloader but you may get water flickering. Have you tried using FMSel? That's the inbuilt loader that comes with NewDark. Did you use Tafferpatcher to install?

I do use darkloader, I will try a different loader and let you know. I do use tafferpatcher.

Just for info, I don't use tafferpatcher and usually I use darkloader 4.3. Everything worked fine with me, no bug whatsoever.

Sorry, vincentlancon, for not being clearer, my last comment was aimed at Lockpicker but yes, using FMSel should solve the water flicker problem. At least it did for me.
@DrK. I don't know what else you have/haven't installed? Maybe it has something to do with ticking t2water when I installed with Tafferpatcher. I've got 3 different installations but none without t2water in the MODS folder. Perhaps I should experiment a bit. But I didn't have the problem with FMSel. There's info on this over in ThiefGen which I don't really understand. :)

Personally I don't use any kind of graphic content when I play FMs, so I can play them the way their authors meant them to be.
It's a fresh T2 install with Newdark 1.21 and custom scripts installed manually on it, nothing else.
The problem doesn't come from darkloader imo, but from any kind of graphical pack, like the water mod for example. With Rocksbourg 3 I had a similar problem, the enhancement pack would cause the mission to crash for some reason.

I usually have a vanilla T2, one with basic patches and one with the EP for testing purposes. But since I got a new[er] pc, I don't have an enhancement free version. I'm going to sort that out now. I don't have a clue about the whys, I only know I didn't have the problem, on this occasion, using FMSel with or without the EP. But I have noticed that I'm getting it a lot more than I used to. If you felt like it, the (
http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=48202) FAQ could do with a clear set of instructions for a basic installation without using Tafferpatcher.
Edit. Unticking the t2water does result in no flickering water with DL. So, another solution. Thanks DrK.

Exile is much bigger than 73 Mb, your download is corrupt. It should be around 180 Mb.
I just noticed the southquarter link leads to a 48 Mb file, there's a problem somewhere.

Thanks DRK, I had tried the first 2 sites, now I'm trying with google......

Soldi - The key for the condo basement
is inside the locked double doors on a small shelf. You don't need the key to get into there. You can access it from inside the condo. As for the Bank
that basement is one of the ways to get there. Check out the sewers underneath the condo. Hawk - Check the
statues in front of the church. There's a symbol on each of them. Then, once you get inside, you'll find more. As for Mechanist HQ, you need to find
a large pipe that you can walk on. It's up high, in a grassy area above the pigeon coops, though you have to find another way to actually get there. thankyou linda I got in the church
found a hammer key
