Not to be a fly in the ointment, but isn't that illegal, being as how it runs without the need to have a dark engine game?
TypeRED on 30/12/2008 at 20:03
1. this game uses the dark engine (Thief 1/2 demos do that too)
2. this game runs without cd (Thief 1/2 demos do that too)
3. it runs without the need to have a dark engine game (Thief 1/2 demos do that too)
4. this game has no content of any dark engine game (Thief or SS2)
5. i dont make money with it
so whats wrong? :weird:
if this is illegal, so why does the Thief2 MP thread still exist?
it contains a thief2.exe without cd protection :sly:
think about it... i want to share this to let people have some fun, not to get anything for it

(I don't think there's a problem with it.)
This looks really (unexpected) crazy, TypeRED. What the heck are you going to think up next? Is it just me, or does the 'player' look like a Dralthi? :)
How are you doing this without the source code? Are you holding out on us? Do you have the source code? :erm:
Edit: It looks like all this wants to do is crash on my computer.
TypeRED on 30/12/2008 at 22:17
can you give me more info about the crash?
and, no, i dont have the source code, i dont even know how to write code for programs. ;)
this was all done with dromed functions and custom scripts
Digital Nightfall on 30/12/2008 at 23:10
would if I could... it was just a standard windows xp "this program has ended" crash after I double-click the exe and see a black screen for a moment.
TypeRED on 30/12/2008 at 23:18
did you try the ddfix exe?
i have tried to run this program on XP SP1 , SP2, and now i'm using SP3
it worked on all systems

you know what, i think this is really interesting (although I'm not sure about the copyright issues). I'm very curious, how exactly did you make this?
and to be honest, i think the graphics are pretty decent, especially the explosion effect - it's very nice.
do you think you can actually make a 3d game in this way?
@Digital Nightfall: Also, did you try the temporary fix for the multi-core problem? (i.e., start the game, alt+tab out, go to task manager and set Fighter.exe to one cpu)

A space game using the dark engine?:wot: neato. Will have to try it.
TypeRED, don't forget about thief kart!:sly:
Edit: You should really use a different uploader site. :eww:

@sneaksie
i tried rapidshare, but it sets some limit for downloads, 10 times max...
tell me a good site to upload it, and i will do so
i don't forget thiefkart, but please be patient
@thief0
i used my knowledge of the darkengine/dromed to build this.
i think i can make any game based on the darkengine :p
a little bit about myself:
i've studied dromed since 1999, and i posted first on ttlg on 13th Jun 2008 :joke: (i had internet first in 2005 :wot: )
i got many stuff and technologies to release for thief,
i just dont know how to get it into words :laff:
my bad english may be the main reason
soon i will make some threads to introduce everything i made.
but enough off-topic...
did anyone get the game to run properly yet?
