Ha! Thanks. I figured out how to get inside.

Been waiting for this one since seeing the first shots of it - thank you!

2nd mission - couldn't jump any higher than 4 fps. I guess you didn't f**k around when you said it need 3GHz and 2GB of RAM, eh?
Anyway, was a unique run. That is the biggest amount of ground I've covered in 28 minutes.

Shouldn't steps 4 & 5 be together? :) Or are you particular about that sort of thing?
1) NEVER taff on an empty stomach.
2) NEVER eat and taff at the same time. The guards will smell the food and come looking for it. You know they're always hungry.:p

I need help (playing on easy):
[Spoiler]I have to capture the doctor in the stable. I went where and then I see a short video of the doctor. But now nothing happens. The horse seems to be frobbalbe but I have no clue. Do I have to make it sick?[/spoiler]
And by the way: the horses behave very strange:

Use the backdoor key on the backdoor. There's a tiny keyholeYeah, I saw that but unlocking it causes an alarm to eventually go off. But I figured out the correct way to go in as quakis stated in his post above.
The tricky thing here is
The cameras. Initially they are both in a "synchronized" state where they are pointed directly at the door and its surroundings. However, if you let the left camera "see" you and then quickly run out of its view - WITHOUT ALERTING THE RIGHT CAMERA - then the left camera will break out of its pattern momentarily and complete a 360 degree turn. When the left camera has its back turned from you, slip in directly under the RIGHT CAMERA (i.e. out of its field of view) and start picking the lock. Be careful because unlike the usual locks you encounter, this one often requires you to use the same type of pick several times in a row. If the left camera starts to come around towards you again, move out of the way. Then repeat the sequence of "see-hide-slip in and picklock" until you finish the lockpick and the door opens.elkston on 8/4/2010 at 17:33

I'm having the same problem and my system clearly exceeds those guidelines. As soon as the mission starts it is almost a slideshow.
I have an NVIDIA 9800GTX (1GIG of video ram), a Quad-core 2GHZ processor, and 4 GIGs of RAM.
Update: I restarted Thief 2, loaded the save I made from mission 2, and the slowdowns went away.

OR
go to the other side of the castle, find a microscopical ring to the door's keyhole thingey, unlock it and disable the cameras to save that go-around effort.

So you're saying that IF
I raise the gate first (using the arrow-hits-the-lever move), THEN go around and unlock that tiny keyhole with the "back door key", that this will disable the cameras?
So my problem prior to this was using the back door key BEFORE I actually raised the gate to reveal the inner door and security cameras? Cause it seems like that sequence causes an alarm to go off, rather than disabling the cameras.

Oh, if so, then that sucks. But it's not such a big deal. Just run past them, so they don't spot you for long enough. But yeah, I happened to do it in that order.
So, you playin' mission 2 or waiting or trying to fix it yourself?
