Strange, I started a new game from scratch with the zip file version 1.3 using new dark version 1.27, I am going to do another new replay and see if it was some odd one time occurance then, since you can find viktrolas that are not interactive, don't know if the save file would do any good to check into with but still have one, it sjust been overwritten with an instance after picking the very last one up and being near the end of turning the mission in. :)

-edit-

I have managed to trigger this bug once more and this time I have a save file, if Cardia needs one but here is a brief explanation of what I did.
It can spoil quite a lot for new players so I just hide them all up into spoiler tags.

I left the two viktrolas to last, the ones very close to each other on high rooftop, one is near an archer and one is near the spider room, basically I visited ALL other viktrolas first including the one in the bar (with the guy who gives you password) and one on high rooftop next to groovy dancers just to listen to these, I also interacted with the music buttons one found inside the hammerite area and one outside the theatre on top of a fountain to turn them off, should this bit of information be helpful at all.

So conclusion, grabbing the one next to spider first, triggers the objective and I can skip grabbing the one next to archer, BUT if I grabber the one near archer first then I do NEED the one next to spider room in order to trigger the bonus objective.

Ghostly you´re right, the viktrola you mentioned next to the archer guard was not link to the other viktrolas group, i have fixed that, and updated the mission link. Thank you very much for finding this error :thumb:

I guess it didn´t happen to me, because I didn´t take this victrola as last one, so I guess I just didn´t notice.

i´ve been using wrong format screen resolution for a couple of years, in consequence some object proportions were not corrected for most monitors formats , made a new update where i adjust the proportion of many objects and brushes, mainly paintings and doors, and also made some minor fixes.

here's the mission updated to V1.4:

You're welcome Samantha, i made this mission using 1280x1024 resolution on a 1920x1080 monitor, luckily i had to fix only mainly paintings and some doors proportions, when i t comes to rest everything looks correct.

Oof. That must have been rough looking.

I thought 1280x1024 was the right resolution because thief menu would be displayed in full screen, with this resolution everything looks larger , i got used to it, and when i changed to the proper resolution everything look small and slim , but my brain is already adapted to the right resolution 1920x1080.

I keep reading that the music can somehow be turned off in this mission. But the only way I see is to try and find the almost impossible to find victrolas. After wanting to replay the two levels in this mission, I remember now what bothered me. This music is really ruining the Thief experience for me. How can I make the music stop?

In the second of these two missions, the music inside the church can be turned off with a lever in the altar room. I think it is located at the altar or at a large Hammer icon.
