You can still buy Thief, Thief Gold and Thief 2 from various outlets and you can certainly get it working on a modern win32 platform judging from the responses on the game's forums. But it's a brittle process with no guarantees (as I know only too well) and only getting worse with time.
GOG might well come out with a version and I'd be ecstatic if they made a bundle which could run predictably on a modern platform. It would certainly save me a bunch of work :)
- camperman 15y agojegub I'm actually replying to you because there's no reply button under your comment for some reason. I'm jealous - I really am ;) I know the process - hyperthreading fix, DDFix, DarkLoader, T2 meshes in T1, safe texture manager switch, reload the codecs and so on - works well for some people. I guess I'm scratching a (very large) personal itch.
- dunstad 15y agoIf I'm not mistaken, the reply button takes longer to appear the more deeply nested a comment is, to discourage long, drawn-out arguments which detract from the value of a thread.
- jegub 15y agoI've had success with Thief/2 on Win7 x64/Phenom II 965/Radeon 5770, thanks to setting the processor affinity and applying DDFix and the Enhanced Resolution Patch. They look better than ever and the lack of resolution change when displaying maps/books improves the immersion. http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=121449 http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=121449 http://www.thief-thecircle.com/guides/hyperthreading/ http://www.thief-thecircle.com/guides/hyperthreading/
