Could anyone possibly enlighten me regarding the final secret in the 2nd mission? Every single walkthrough I found only speaks of 13 secrets, but the stats page (upon mission completion) shows 13 out of 14, as shown in the attached image.

I'll add the following details:
- I'm running the latest GOG version of the game;
- I've picked up the Horn in the music room which seems to do nothing other than take up inventory space;
- I opened the crate in the below the ship deck and picked up the body inside, moving it with me around the map; (I loaded and moved it around only after I saw 13/14 secrets, hoping I might stumble across it this way);
- I've entered the code inside the captain's crate in one of the side shacks containing the 4 digit ciphers, but I didn't hear anything open, nor did I see any new available areas.. the code probably has nothing to do with these shacks but I thought I'd mention this anyway.

EDIT: there is a link to the image I've mentioned after the first paragraph but it doesn't show.. may I post the link directly?

It counts one secret twice though.

On page 4:


and on the next page:


I think the correct number should be 13. Must be a NewDark bug or something.

The painting secret bug was fixed in the (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=141121) Thief2 Fixed package, which brings the secret count up to 14. I'm guessing that's what you're playing, or some variant thereof. It's included in Tafferpatcher and I think Gecko included it in the Thief2 HD Mod.

So the last/14th secret is shooting the crystal ball of the painting, in the Building A art gallery.

Issue located.. it's the painting.

GOG version is called "Thief 2 Final 1.26". The end Stats screen for mission 2 displays 14 secrets, but after completing the mission while leaving them all aside and then testing them one by one, the painting gives off no notification (text or audio) to let you know you've found a secret. 9/14 didn't update to 10/14 after loading the mission right before shooting an arrow through the crystal and running towards where the mission ends.

Again, many thanks for that list, it was quite helpful. :P

EDIT: Also, the list is for a different version of the game. My loot list looks quite different on expert than what I've seen in the provided list. (with a total of 1665)
