@Linda : if you say the
mechanical angels and
turrets in Karras's quarters are active, I guess you unfortunately killed the worker bot waiting at the entrance instead of following it. In such case, you'll unfortunately need to use an invisible or speed potion to pass all this dangerous area to reach
the elevator throne and get to the upper floor to continue the adventure.
It's a level design mistake, I know, it's a thing I plan to fix for the update. Once you'll be up there
Find the emergency exit lever, then leave this ambush and find the break room. There you'll find the security room and the key of the factory (which will grant you the access almost EVERYWHERE in the compound and the Irina's Book which will tell you how to win.)Actually I'm at the
control room where there are
two levers. I have already substituted the
memory crystal with an empty one found in the basement but none of the
lever lower... I am supposed somewhat to call a
giant elevator in the main hall but I can't see any way to get it down...

So if you reach such a point, it means you found Irina's ledger and the factory key so it means the last thing to do is to turn off the valva which gives Karras the control over the control room. To find this valva you need to follow the glowing green conduct upstairs.
Additionnal hint : It will lead you to the south entrance to Karras'quarters that you can open by activating the levers that control South Emergency Exit ie the room with four levers that you should have met when you escaped Karras' ambush

Hello! New member here and have been loving the fan missions I've tried out from this contest so far.
I can't seem to get this mission to load at all. When I hit play, it crashes before I even get in game. I'm playing with a GOG copy of Thief II. I tried updating to NewDark 1.27, copying the files over into the directory. I set my audio channels to 48 and hardware acceleration to on. Still crashes. Any advice?
I've loaded it with both DarkLoader and FMsel, and both seem to be fine, so I don't think it's the loader
EDIT: I actually figured out what I did. Since I primarily use DarkLoader, and this mission wasn't showing up in the list (since it's a .7z not a .zip) I had decompressed it, and then rezipped it and put it in my FM directory. This made it show up in DarkLoader, but apparently broke it. Given the advice I found elsewhere in these forums, I don't think I'll be using DarkLoader anymore :). I redownloaded the mission, reinstalled Thief 2, and used FMsel instead and it was able to load into the first cinematic!
Hopefully this is useful info for anyone else that had this issue
Looking forward to trying this mission out!
