More info?)
Found the problem! My version of the GayleSavor scripts had a file named
darkhook.dlx. I redownloaded them and in this Zip package this file is now
called darkhooks.dlx.
Now the lock lights up and the key works.
Apparently the file was misnamed in the first Zip package. I've used the
first package files to play other missions that were listed as needing them
and they all worked. Maybe all the others didn't need to use this particular
file? What ever, things are fine now.
Thanks for the input.
