Nice one Mr K, although I don't mind the movement overall I like your tweaks as they are, they make things feel more thiefy.
So far I've only played the demo, and after applying various tweaks I must say the experience is getting much better. Hopefully by the time i get the full thing I'll have my .ini files ready to go :thumb:

YES! YES! YES!
I killed the background lighting in the item help window, leaving only a flat, dark background with the help text overlaid. If you don't know what I'm talking about, go to your inventory and click the Loot button, then right-click on an item and compare the two window effects.
This was seriously bugging me. I'll post the code after I tweak it a little more.

Heh heh, i'm in the same boat too. Feels like i'm making the bagagge for when i move on to T3. I'll bring all my nerdy stuff with me.
Now off to find the atomic frob and arrow trails stuff. The demo is so short! T1 Bafford's demo was great, would have paid money for it.

Too true. The demo should have been longer. But, methinks another demo is on it's way.... ;)
Can anybody tell me which files I need to delete to eliminate the arrow trails? Please?

Hey: I just found a line at the top of default.ini wchi reads:
DebugShowTags=False
I'm changing it to true, and we'll see what happens...
EDIT: Backspace seems to be binded, too.... I wonder....

We don't know how to get rid of those yet :(

EDIT(2): DebugShowTags=False appears to be, well, debugging, has not much to do with cheats and such.

Okay, to get rid of the spotlight on the item help window, go to the [LargePopupWindow] in T3UI.ini, and comment out these two lines (put a ; in front of them):
ChildWindow_0=T3UILights.ini:MetaGameLight_1
ChildWindow_2=T3UILights.ini:MetaGameLight_2
However, this will darken the buttons in some windows, namely the "Are you sure you want to quit?" window.
You can do the same with [MetaGameLoadSaveConfirmPopUpWindow] to tone down the glare when you load or save your games, as well as when you confirm that you want to leave the current area.
Was this bothering anyone other than me? :p
Mr. K. on 29/5/2004 at 23:45
Oh, i don't mind the spotlight. Not that i ever visit that window. :P
Mentalepsy, how is that quotes/tips tweak going? The one you were adding quotes from previous thief games instead of the gameplay tips.

bugging us all my friend bugging us all..
I went back to my original .ini files briefly and mannn oh mann
seriously whats up with ion storm and humungous over the top fonts and effects? DXIW and now this. I mean this is the least they could have tweaked differently for xbox and pc
anyway back to the tweaking
PS i've been looking around to see if a lean forward script is possible. Some of the coders out there might be able to do something..
is the answer somewhere between T3PlayerAnims.ini, MotionTags.ini, and AI_LocoModes_Shared.h (mentioned in motiontags.ini)..?
