I upgraded from GF3 (Asus) to GF6 (POV) and now thief 2 wouldn't run for me, it crashed when I would load a map. I checked around some and found a cfg file that had something about this:

 

;Some video cards may not work properly with Thief 2

;including the intel 810 and the nVidia RIVA 128.

;To fix, remove the semicolon from the next line.

;safe_texture_manager

 

I did what it told me and Thief would run again, but the visuals were terrible. There were several bugs. Anyone know how to deal with this?

 

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, I think we all have fond memories of the first time we realised we could beat someone to death with the blackjack. Mine was one of those hammerite priests, and I had to keep hitting him or he'd have enough time to cast his spell and kill me. Something had to give eventually.

I'm playing through T2 again now also, and I just wanted to mention how much of a pain it is to jump to that high crate with the rope arrow in Shipping & Receiving. It's even more of a pain to do it without alerting anyone... had to settle for a minor alert from the guy on the ground 'cause he caught a glimpse of me slowfalling down. But to get my hands on a rope arrow again, it was worth it. :ph34r:

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?
