My thief came 8 years ago on the cover cd of a gaming magazine.
Your exe is new to me.
What i did:
Patches, item 0
Address=004156BC
Size= 5.
State=Active
Old=CALL Thief.0050EC90
New=MOV EAX,1
(That call is also patched in tutorial for v1.14 by r!sc that i read afterwards.)
Code:
004156B9 |. 83C4 08 ADD ESP,8
004156BC B8 01000000 MOV EAX,1
004156C1 |. 85C0 TEST EAX,EAX
004156C3 |. 75 0B JNZ SHORT Thief.004156D0
004156C5 |. 50 PUSH EAX
004156C6 |. 6A 01 PUSH 1
004156C8 |. E8 138E1100 CALL Thief.0052E4E0
004156CD |. 83C4 08 ADD ESP,8
004156D0 |> E8 EB020000 CALL Thief.004159C0
004156D5 |. 8D5424 40 LEA EDX,DWORD PTR SS:[ESP+40]
004156D9 |. C74424 40 03000000 MOV DWORD PTR SS:[ESP+40],3
CALL Thief.0050EC90 calls disc check, failed disc check means eax = 0, jnz not taken,
CALL Thief.0052E4E0 leads to function that terminates process.
Thief1.rar
Patched this exe, too.
Please post your gamepath so i can fix install.cfg for you.
Your crash happens always when the fonts are loaded.
@Tippex: Disc check is still present.

Test_copy_protect is inactive by default, only_check_path is active.
First, it pushes cd_path from install.cfg on stack (like C:\programs\Thief), checks if files are present, then it pushes a second patch on stack (C:\ is replaced with the first letter that returned 5 in eax for getdrivetypea), now it looks for the files on Y:\programs\Thief. C:... is the data_path, Y:... check_path. If files not there bad boy msg called. It never touches my second drive Z:
