The Ghost House and The Haunted Hospital

Help. I can't open the very first door, even after I choose one of the missions I get stuck in the small room. What should I do?
By the way, I have a german version of Thief II.

You will have to install the scripts from Gaylesaver and/or Telliamed then restart the game. You can get them here, among other places:

Belated by a month or two, but my congratulations on this. I played this mission (among a few others) on Halloween, and it was great! Very nice job on the random events in the Ghost house. And the hospital... Whew. Excellent atmospheric design.

Actually the Ghost house made me jump more, but then again the Hospital was much longer. I assume the doctors everyone is referring to are the [SPOILER]reaper/death creatures?[/SPOILER]

That SOB [SPOILER]hanging from the wall upstairs over the holy water fountain,[/SPOILER] was a royal pain in the ***.

Other than loot locations though I had none of the spoiler questions anyone else has asked. Excellent job.

Thank you for your comments. It is nice to hear that people are still playing it.

Can someone provide the definite scripts or the definite (still working) links to download them? I seem to miss something: I have installed the scripts, or at least I think I did, but I cannot open the door at the beginning (after I made my mission choice).

Though I can crack it open with the sword. But I doubt that this is intended. :erg:

Hi and welcome to the forum!

I think this is what you need from the (http://thiefmissions.com/scripts/) Thiefmissions script-page :

(http://thiefmissions.com/telliamed/tnhscript21.zip) http://thiefmissions.com/telliamed/tnhscript21.zip

Just unzip them into your Thief2 folder and make sure to restart the mission, means : do not load a savegame !

Thank your very much. :D

Suddenly it works, though I had installed the very same scripts before. But whatever... thanks again for the nice welcome. :angel:

A big dml by Unna to fix this small but excellent mission that has so much packed into it you have just got to play it again..and even then you'll miss so, so much!

Fixes burning man (even the author couldn't fix that one), doors that turned invisible when opened, and a few misplaced objects.

Note: To fix the burning man you also need to place a copy of "pfire" into you bitmap FMsel/Ghosthouse root folder (the author left this file out of the FM), you can find a copy of this common file in the bitmap folder of (http://thiefmissions.com/m/FortressByTheSea) Fortress by the Sea

Tried playing this mssion with the latest tfix last night, cannot open door. Door cannot be interacted with. I noticed that on the ceiling there are "targets" tried shooting them with arrows. SOme of the "targets" made different noises so I assumed they are switches. From what I can tell they are not, after attempting to activate them for qutie some time. I then turned to putting the mirror on the lamp desk, because it had an indentation that looked like a switch. This also did not work. After a while I watched a youtube video of someone playing the mission and they..just walked right through the door. I cannot open the door as I cannot interact with it at all. Playing on "expert" difficulty.

What door/doors are you talking about? Can you upload a save please.
