'New Game' problem

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.thief-dark-project (More info?)

I'm running T2 okay under XP but today, when I wanted to start a
completely new game, it wouldn't take me to 'Running Interference' -- it
keeps flipping me to 'Soulforge'. Can anyone suggest a fix, please?

make sure the strings folder eg thief2/strings/
doesn't contain the missflag.str file sometimes using darkloader to play fan
missions it doesn't delete
the files in the strings directory.

also check the user.cfg file and make sure non of the starting_mission lines
have the ';' missing from the front of it, eg soulforge mission in the
user.cfg file should look like this.
;Sabotage at Soulforge
;starting_mission 15

the user.cfg file is in the thief2 directory.
