Just FYI I've submitted a new version to my testers, that should fix problematic spots where our big friend might get stuck. Hopefully this releases soon if all goes well.

Nice manor mission. Technically everything is really good. But I had some navigational issues. Nothing serious, but 30% of the time I was running in circles looking for "that room where I have already been and forgot how to get there".

When you manually installed 1.28, did you remember to also install its version of squirrel.osm? it is inside "contrib.zip"; and should be installed to replace the 1.27 version of squirrel.osm that is in in your t2 install folder.
I did not. That was the issue.

I didn't use the installer, as it didn't want to run for me. I downloaded the .zip from the original French forum post and unpacked that.
Yeah that message shows every time I reload a save.
Edit: Never mind. Got the TFix Lite installer to work, and now it's all fixed.
What a
gorgeous mission so far!
Could you please provide a link to the French forum from which you downloaded T2Fix 1.28 zip package? The installer also doesn't work for me. I assume that the .zip should be unpacked directly to the root Thief 2 install directory, right? Thanks in advance.

Some of the lily pads when I bump into them they turn 45 degrees vertically and start slowly spinning. Are they modified crates or something? Strange behavior. Looks very odd.

Good catch, that's a remnant of something I got rid of, but not for all of them. It's gonna be part of the 1.1 update.

Dropbox link in first post of that thread.
What I had to do to get the installer to work was right click on the file then properties, and then remove a security feature towards the bottom that prevented me from running it because it was prepared on another computer... Never seen this feature in Windows before.

Hallo skacky.
Wonderfull outdoors in this mission. And also big thanks for this release. However, I'm having the same issuse as downwinder. I'm not able to open any doors to enter the mansion, even when I was able to lock-pick the ones down by the lake. Even fresh install of Thief 2 and applying the NewDark 1.28 afterwards didn't solve the issue for me. I'm running Windows 10 64-bit and Thief 2 was bougt on Steam. DarkLoader didn't even find the zip-folder, therefore I am using AngelLoader ver. 1.6.9.2. to start the mission. I was able to load the mission and to explore the outdoors. It run smoothly on my PC. No messages whatsoever, but every door stays shut not only for me but also for the NPCs (guards patroling the corridor overlooking the lake are also unable to open the doors). Any hints how to solve the issue?

I thought I was so clever, locking the big, bloodthirsty bastard in the cell where he keeps the noblewoman... Until I progressed a bit and had to let him back out again. That led for a very tense finale.
Overall, a positively delightful mission. My jaw dropped seeing our new pal.

same exact issue, tried regular 1.28 and Lite as well and things look good but cannot open doors (completely fixed, by........clicking on Tfix by AM16 which was unclicked)...I am old, I am sorry I am old :rolleyes:
