I would prefer to do it for them, but if people are going to get bent out of shape because they have to ....'oh my god'...wait, then I'm going to be a little annoyed. If it's a long download...go for a walk, if you're on dialup...request to have a CD sent to you from me or someone who has it.
Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that any of this is your fault - I think the solution you've come up with is the best one possible under the circumstances. And I certainly didn't mean to annoy you.
Just pointing out that it could be a bigger problem for some people than you were making out... but I guess even most Thief players have broadband these days, so my fears are perhaps somewhat ungrounded. :)

:thumb: No worries, I wasn't annoyed by you. I just meant that I 'would' be annoyed in the future if I came in here and saw a bunch of complaining about having to download a large patch, when all it requires them to do...is patiently wait. :)

I'm sure I'm being dumb but I've run the demo mission (I like the ambient at the start and the old style hud actually) but I'm having some trouble with it.
I can convert water arrows to holy water arrows with the fountain but the flasks don't seem to do anything. Neither does the oil flask. I also cannot open one of the chests or the locked door opposite to where you enter. In fact it might be an issue with not knowing how to use the keys and the picks.
I've also found, I think, that holy water arrows put out flames but not the light source itself.

hmmm, that doesn't sound right. Holy water flasks should be working, I'll double check...but as long as you have regular water arrows left in your inventory, you should be fine. Lockpicks and keys have to be selected from inventory and while selected, hit the use button. For me, that's the middle mouse key.
I'll look into these issues and post back.

Just tested it all out SE, everything's working fine on this end. Light sources are properly extinguished with holy water arrows, all flasks work, lockpicks and keys work. I've installed and uninstalled T3EnhancED numerous times over the course of testing, so its pretty much gone through the paces.
I wonder what's going on...

I've continuously had this problem with plain old Vanilla TDS installs. Its some sort of Graphical glitch as far as I can tell. Restarting the game usually solves it. I know updating my Radeon Graphics driver solves it (and a few other odd graphical issues) too, but when I do so my older T1 and T2 installs don't run properly so I am intentionally using an older ATI driver. I have experienced the fire going out, but not the lamp as well as textures that should be dark but appear fullbright in game. As I said a driver update fixed these problems. I doublt it has anything to do with T3EnhancED in particular.

Well that's a little confusing seeing as vanilla TDS had no holy water arrows. I'm talking holy water arrows.
Are you talking about water arrows or about using the holy water vials to put out flames?

I think he just means that he had the same trouble with standard water arrows. I'm not sure what would cause the problem with holy water arrows though, I copied the water arrow actor, made a duplicate of the stim but with a holy water stim attached. That's really the only difference between them. Hmmm.

Don't worry about it. Perhaps if I re-try it it'll be ok. I'm busy with other stuff atm though.
No rope arrows in T3EnhancEd eh?

Nope, I appreciate all the work that has gone into rope arrows. Unfortunately due to the editor limitations, we may be stuck with a permanent work in progress. :( I only included things that I was able to impliment in full.
