If thats a no cd patch you posted in that rar I'll give it a shot, aslo I don't recall needing
to run a patch on my thief 1- 1.33 install to update it so yeah I believe its a direct 1.33.
oh and also I don't recall needing to fix any Direct3D texture errors thus far.

I'll give it a shot now but on a side note.. *looks at code discussion* ok so maybe I was
wrong when I thought it would be a simple matter of making a no cd patch lol.. jk you
guys are prolly l33t at that stuff an do so in your sleep =p but ya wow @ code talk stuff.

<-- has almost no programming skillz but can read/understand where the discussion is
going somewhat.

*zips up to test the file now*

PS: I searched my install for an ini file which isn't there but several cfg files DO exist and
a movie folder, let me know if you need a screenshot if the install dir.

Edit: However I did need to change the affinity to cpu 0 to keep the game running
originally it seems your patch/fix from the rar comes with the affinity preset which is
very nice ^.^, so far it appears to run fine, I'll have to give it a few levels for my own
personal stability test but so far so good though I don't expect this to fail ultimately
considering the skillz at hand involved =p.

Oh ya if I wasn't clear the game loads up without the cd =p.
I'll post again tomorrow sometime when I get home.

Thanks in advance, if you feel personally confident you should post the patch up
on the net to prevent this nightmare from ever re-raising itself from the dead =p

PSS: I won't go posting the fix on the net as thats not my job so you know,
especially without having a readme that credits those involved properly =)

=========

New Edit: So I loaded a game save that went well, took a few hits died all good.
Then I tried to start a new game with training and the game crashed. Tried again
without the training same thing crash. Hmm.. where to go from here..

Maybe I should mention I run this from F:\Games\Thief\Thief.exe
(Yeah I renamed the patch exe to that but even without renaming it
the error/crash persists.)
