the difference is the plates are script driven, I loaded the original thief gold script into the level, it works in a way, but not like in the original. when the plates are safe to cross the health shields next to the light gem will flicker in a strange way, when this happens, the plate nearest you is safe to cross. also the plates may appear to be a different color when they are safe.

this is a kind of fix to the hot metal plates problem in the thief 2 conversion, if it works.

Belboz...just wanted you to know that your efforts to fix this problem does not go unappreciated. This was a good effort I know to try and resolve this issue but I'm afraid it's just too much to try and play it any further this way (for me anyway). This might be a usable way to try and overcome this glich...but don't see how it could work when the plates are across a jump over to the next plato (since they wouldn't be next to you) :( But thank you again for trying :) Ta and Good Hunting!

Well if eidos would release the script info on how to write scripts in thief 2 then I could solve the problem, the easy method would just be to remove the plates that get in the way of game play. Anyway the plates are all in an alternative sequence, if the one near you is on, the next one is off, etc. Although without the plates that jump is still hard, Garrett doesn't seam to be able to jump as far in thief 2 compared with thief dark.

Belboz,
Should have posted before. My thanks, I downloaded this close after you posted it. Have not been able to play it yet though. Bet I can riun through it before T3 comes out though.
