The naming thing is because of the space - you can't have a space in the pathnames (so "c:/Program Files" or "/Thief Deadly Shadows" or "/Thief3 Edit")
Beyond that, you don't really need two installs. I get by fine with one for editing and playing in (GL is a big bonus though, since it backs up all the stuff I'm working on and puts it back when un/installing FMs)
First things first though:
A) which version of the game do you have?
- The editor seemingly does not work with DirectToDrive or other legallly Downloaded version, you need one from a shop with a disc (because they changed how some of the stuff is arranged, I think)
B) Having cleared everything out, can you reinstall and play the game?
- No editor versions, no Garrettloader, no texture packs, just does it work out of the box?

This is a store bought game, with 3 CDs, and I just finished meeting the Keeper in the Tercel Courtyard last night. It works fine, just having problems with getting the editor to.:confused:
I just reinstalled DS and the game itself, without anything else, plays well.

Okay, next bit, which editor?
The normal official one, or NewHorizon's T3EnEd?

I believe it is the normal official one...I think 322 mb??
I get the same error stack as Three Eyes a page back
SQUEAL! I got it to work! I used only one directory, not two, I installed Unreal2, uninstalled and reinstalled Thief3 and it works it works! I used t3.exe editor in shortcut command. Thanks all!

I went on to start ThiefLauncher and then GarrettLoader and set everything up. Garrettloader informed me I had the wrong t3Main.exe and offered to fix it for me so I said yes and now I am back to square one where I get all the same errors and stuff and cannot start it :eek:
Just dl'd Komag Tut, thanks!
Finally got it working again, this time with two different thief directories, but when I renamed the OPtversion to Main, it makes the editor stall and lockup in game mode. Well, at least I can create - just have to figure out how to actually experience what I've made. On top of that, I followed Komag's tut (which is how i got 2 directories to work - Komag is the best!) but as far as the launcher goes, it just does not work for me - nothing happens when I click launch editor or game (and I first went in,chose the directories, then closed out).
