How do you get the vp3 codec and what do you do with it when you get it. I went to the web site but it seems you have to be registered to access the what ever it is. I am notorious for not seeing what is right in front of me so be kind.
Also I have a problem unzipping my games as I do not have an unzipper (?). My computer died once and when the computer fixers revived it (reloaded windows) they forgot to put in the unzip program. they cost $30.
I think I have galesaver scripts because I used the trial version of winzip to apply that. I think I put it in thief II. Is that what you do with the vp3 codec?
Thanks, I love playing thief but I am a dork when it comes to computer stuff. I really try to read the web sites but I just don't get the jargen.

pale, isn't difficult to register to the vp3 codec usage.... simple go in here (
http://www.vp3.com/getvp3/index.shtml) then fill the spaces with your email (could be any kind of email... :sly: ) and a name.... then you can download it... it's less than 500kb. there is the link of the download but i think it doesn't works until you need to put your email address and name... (
http://www.vp3.com/getvp3/software/vfw/pc/3.2.5.0/On2VP3VideoForWindows.exe)
anyway there is a copy of the codec inside my zip file.
Everytime you click on a .zip file you must click on Evaluate and then you can view what it contains... go in here to grab the last version of winzip (
www.winzip.com)
then go to the galesaver's scripts source site and download it, open the zip file and extract all to the thief2 directory....
hope that now it's clear for you.

Thank you very much Sterlino. I am assuming that you d/l the vp3 codec on to the C drive. Let me know if I am supposed to put it in thief II.
I will make sure that the FM works then I will d/l the final version and play that one. Have a nice sleep.

hmmmm........ wake up this morning with a lot of little adjustement to set up for the ghost level...... just made it all .....but now i'm going trough another FMP.
sorry but is necessary.... or the mission on the ghost level would be impossible.
[spoiler] one secrets was invisible on ghost level, now fixed.
some lights were impossible to hide near ...now fixed...
the swamp were impossible to cross, now i set the poison on a very loss lost of Hp...
added a little feature to not make rumors in some area.... very nice you will love it.
[/spoiler]
i think that today is the end of working on that incredible mission.
It takes me for over 1 year and some other months...
i'm just a little sad to finish here.... it's like to read the Lord of the rings and found yourself on the very last page.... after so much time you don't like that is the end... and you are scared about the empty space that it leaves beyond itself...
:sweat:
edited now: a last critical problem founded on a guard.... now fixed ....i'm in the FMP yet.
probably the upload will be this night.
:erg:

the mission won't leave me alone :o :D
then it comes out with another error on screen. May be the reason of trouble with savegaming for someone......
the swamp has a terrible problem.... after all day passed trough thinking about a solution i decided to rebuild the whole swamp with another more simple method.
i've just finished now.. but this would mean that i need again to test it all by myself.
i absolute want to be sure that the mission is full completable for anyone who decide to play it.
now some parts of the level are very funny to play.
;)

heh, it wasn't too hard to cross the quick sand/swamp. You just need 2 speed potions (and 2 healing potions). [SPOILER]The monk wears a healing potion and the woman in the pup, too. Buy one speed potion and the other is a red mushroom[/SPOILER]
Cross the swamp:
[SPOILER] Use the Speed potion and "run around" the quick sand. You aren't going to get much damage, drink a healing potion, if u like. Get the 2 keys and go back by using the other speed potion[/SPOILER]
