Thief 1/2 & SShock 2: DDFix and Enhanced Resolution Patch - discussion

had a similar error with Tafferpatcher once, and making a clean install of T2 has fixed it. as for TFix not working, it can be a million of things - your full system specs would be helpful.

The PC I've been trying to run it on is my laptop:

Toshiba Satellite L775D-S7132
Windows 7 Premium (SP1) (64-bit)
AMD A6-3420 M
8 GB RAM
Raedon 6520G HD graphics 1.50 GHz

Haven't tried it on my desktop PC

I'm going to have to find my Thief install discs... Lord knows where they are after my move. And I'm not opening my still-sealed copy of Thief Gold (in the trapezoid box).

I can't seem to get Anisotropic filtering working. I have it set to =1 in ddfix, in the Nvidia control panel I have it set to 16x and tried 8x, they look the same.

Anisotropic 8x

ddfix sets it to x16 anyway, so setting it to something else in the driver might not have any effect unless it's forced.

Yeah I'm forcing it in the Nvidia Control Panel.

Windows 8 issues..

I just Bought Windows 8 Pro:

I used to play Thief II with DDFIX on Windows 7 64bit with no issues, all ran ok. I have a thief2 folder with all fixes to run on windows7, but after installing windows 8 x64.... I ran Thief2 from the same folder... and the game started like always.. except that in the thief2 menus the cursor moves very slow... it follow the mouse movements, but very slow, When I load some mission, the game plays ok, but at a lower framerate... It's playable, but not precise. It never shows an error or quit to desktop, but the frame rate is a pain.

It would be great if just a single file is the culprit. Cheers :(

DDFix is discontinued. make a new, fresh install of T2 and use the latest (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=131106) Tafferpatcher.

That seems pretty old to me (2010). Could you tell that tafferpatcher works on Windows 8???

I used that and the game ran worst. Thanks anyway. :(

the latest version has been released in November 2012 (TafferPatcher_TMA_207_beta). use that, and everything should work fine.

Wow, didn't knew that, Installed and working perfect.

Thanks :thumb:
