Tafferpatcher: unofficial complete patch for Thief 2

What's "AM16's Thief2 Fixed Resource Pack v. 1.0e?" Is that explained in the installer?

sNeaksie, see (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=141121) here. Installation is optional, I'm guessing.

Thanks Brethren.

This might go a bit unnoticed because the patching process is iterative, but with the newdark engine update, the enhancements and previous various fixes and now with all the fixed OMs, this is the first time we have something that is for all intents and purposes a comprehensive patch for Thief 2, as Looking Glass Studios would have made it (and even arguably better), almost exactly 13 years after its initial release; 11 years after the release of the 1.18 patch.

Now we're all waiting for voodoo47's fixed SS2 missions so that the same can be said of System Shock 2. :cool:

I never thought all this could ever happen, but here we are. Huge thanks to everyone involved.

Thanks a lot for the update!
Just a 'minor' thing I noticed, which might only effects authors:
The DromED package has been upgraded to level 1.20 and not 1.21 ?
Is that by intention?

Yes, the 1.21 update is just a hotfix for multi monitor setups. The 1.20 update messed that up from what I've read.

To fix the issue with 2.0.9 please do the following:
1. Navigate to the file Thief2\Tafferpatcher\Tafferpatcher.ini and open it with any text editor
2. Find the [VERSIONS] section and the string dromed=121 below it.
3. Change the value to 120 or remove the string completely.

Start Tafferpatcher 2.0.10, click Next all the way and let it update DromEd

OR you can just reinstall DromEd: uncheck it in the Components list, click Next, click Back, check it again, click Next all the way to the Finish.
