Congratulations on the release Random_Taffer, just been playing the first mission (on Expert, I always play missions on Expert unless there's a no Knock out objective) and loving the Thief 1 City vibe to it :thumb:
Edit* First level done with 1607 loot out of 1862 and the one secret found, on wards to mission two!!

Hello great fm
I have technical question about gamma setting is it blocked in fm cos i can see anything changing when i move the slider.

What a ride! 7 hours 40 minutes, finally done :D
Those flying moths in mission 2 were an artistic masterpiece

No, it's not blocked. I have no idea why that would be happening.

I don't even think it's possible for any particular mission to "block" or make the gamma slider ineffective. It's likely something else related to the Thief 2 config.

Tom, you might try this:
Edit cam_ext.cfg in your Thief 2 folder (it will open in any text program such as notepad). Find
d3d9 render options and find this line: ";d3d_disp_no_rgb10_buf". Remove the semicolon, save, and gamma should work. You may also need to restart Thief after you've edited that.

thanks for answer
Yeah i already diagnosed the problem.
Unfortunately my gamma is still not working. It is not the problem of this fabulous fm its my installation getting corrupted.
Its even better now i made clean install of thief metal age steam version. I am trying to launch it without success. I have applied t2tool v1046 nothing still not launching
manually applied newdark v124 still nothing my thief is not launching any ideas ??

I'm having a bit of a problem.
I downloaded & began playing this mission. Was a bit boggled at first, since it went straight to the Objectives screen, but I shrugged it off & started to play, thought maybe gameplay would answer questions. Explore, explore, explore, great! Then I hit a tricky spot with a Hammerite mage who's unable to path away from his spot, when he goes into 'explore' mode to find out who he's hearing/seeing he just walks more or less in place, maintaining overview of the stairs up to the floor he's on, so I am unable to go up there without being attacked. When I hit this spot, I started looking through this thread to see if anyone else had this issue, and I started watching Fen's video. That's when I realized there WAS an intro video that isn't playing for me. Fen also didn't have the Hammerite problem I had. Advice, please, to fix either/both issues?
Note: I'm using FemSel and my T2 is fully patched. Thanks for any help!

The Hammerite problem we tried to fix and couldn't quite I guess since some people still get it. It's pretty hit or miss as to whether you get it.
The movies issue could be a lot of things, but generally it means the codec failed to load. I always start the Credits movie when I launch T2 to make sure movies are working, and just quit and restart if it doesn't play. I've found that it just randomly seems to work or not every time I launch T2. Some people have found that playing after a fresh reboot can help, and also I've had luck closing down all other apps, especially my browser, which perhaps also had the codec loaded and prevented T2 from being able to do so.
