Thief ver 1.33 NO CD

[Waterdust]

Well the movies appear to be working.. don't know about the ending.. gotta play thru
that level all over again (clean install prior wiped my final save -.- ).

Luckily I just have to redo the last level.. I took some saves off the net =p so we'll see
how that goes. However the direct X 6 error remains an now.. oddly when a game is
loaded the top left corner has some strange square that is distorted kinda, rather large
square too. Only resolve to it is to windows key out of the game an click back in to
remove it thus far.. haven't tested to see if it "stays" gone.. I'll know when I redo the
final level for the ending cut scene.

I'll get to work on that now, unless you have any other adjustments? oh btw.. that
stupid direct x 6 error even carries over to thief 2 when I launch it.

Also if anyone knows who made the no cd fix for thief 3, why did they knock out the
version number that used to be on the start screen? I know there'll be no answer most
likely but thought I should ask anyways.. who knows someone MIGHT just know
something lol.

For Thief 3, there is also an unprotected Exe on Gcw.

For Dx Error:
Copy start.bat to gamedir, open it with Notepad and replace C:\Thief with your path. Dont touch the rest, only C:\Thief.

For Thief 2, change the exe name in the second line, too.

I'm aware of the no cd fix online, it's the one I'm using from there.

As for the DX error.. copied file exactly as instructed, edited as instructed.
No changes however for thief 1 or 2.

Also I noticed thus far that the resolution options are sooo much lower than before for
thief 1. What's up with that? maybe that has something to do with the distortion square
that I can now confirm keeps coming back.

Would love to.. maybe if I could get a dig-cam for a min.

On the top left would be the square, it holds a part of the windows desktop in it
an flashes alot. The forum won't let me do the right edges in text.. you get the size.

I'll look for a dig-cam to try for a SS later tho.

Five years later, I haven't forgotten this issue. I think steam has the game possibly solved, who knows.. I don't have time to check right now.

Thanks for the help however & if someone would delete this thread & any other posts of mine from the forum that'd be nice.
