Move Thief2 off old hard drive...help

Hairlesshebald on 17/9/2015 at 19:09

Hello all,
Sorry I haven't posted in about 5 years...but things have been a little mental!

My old laptop got involved in an accident, and had all my thief stuff on it. I've salvaged the hard drive, which is still functional, but the rest of the system has gone for a burton.

In the accident I also lost my original thief 1x/2x/3x CDs....

I'm not after any bootleg copies (no really, I did buy them all as soon as they came out), and I can see the exes and data.

Is the a techie doc on how I can move it off the old drive to my new laptop (i.e. paths for install.cfg / dark.cfg)?

Many thanks from one of the original Thief games/editors.....

Brian

it should be as easy as copying the game folders onto your new hard drive/pc and letting (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=131106) TafferPatcher and (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=134733) TFix crunch through them (not sure about T3, but you are (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=138607) welcome to try). as long as the core files are undamaged, the patchers should produce valid, working game installs.
