(Thief 2) Can't Crawl Through Tight Spaces?
Playing GoG copy of Thief 2, patched with T2Fix. On Windows 11.
I noticed occasionally in early missions that especially tight windows/crawl spaces were a bit... rough. I'd stop in place, jiggle every button I could think of, and either eventually get through or give up and find another route.
Now I'm at Blackmail, and the rock tunnel to enter Truart's estate has, no joke, stopped me cold for 30 minutes.
I have just been SHOVING myself into this tunnel, and Garrett will not move past the entrance. He just gets jammed into the hole and the only way that works is to go -backwards-. I have tried hold crouch, I have tried toggle crouch, I have tried sneak, I have tried mantle, I have tried run, walk, walk slowly, jump, literally any and every movement related button while jammed in the entrance of the hole, nothing. (Though given its a crouch space, most of these are just desperation.)
I'm -sure- I am supposed to just be able to walk forward through this thing while holding or having toggled crouch, but *nothing* happens. He just stops, meaning I can't use the intended path in. And I really don't want to have to bash my way through the main gate in a Thief game?
I had a similar issue years ago on Windows 10 with Hitman Blood Money and the solution was lowering my monitor's refresh rate. That did not work here.
Googling did not find anybody with this problem, so... anybody got any ideas?
EDIT: Okay I managed to mantle over the whole dang rocks and bypass it, but I'm still interested in solving this problem, there are SEVERAL paths I can't use with this issue.
