In the spirit of requests...I know someone posted that they had shrunk the loot glow.  I don't want to turn it off entirely, just shrink it a bit so it is less noticeable.  I don't want to search through the 15+ pages of this thread though...could someone post it again so it can be added to the tweak thread?
Well, I didn't shrink it literally, but I did lighten it considerably. :cheeky: And Mentalepsy was kind enough to add my trick to his compilation (

Very cool menu S_Hole. Even a bit more transparent would be cool. It also looks quite cool with the normal thief3 logo there as well.
Does anyone know how to change the colour of the font used on the buttons in the options menu? I would also like to disable the blue glow behind those buttons, like the back button, and the scroll up and down buttons. Ive replaced the blue lighting effects on that menu with green ones, trying to get the options menu with green text like the original games. (and remove as many unwanted blue glow things as possible)

It's been asked a few pages back and I figured it had been overlooked or something. Anywhere in the city, guards you will blackjack or kill will respawn in less than a minute which makes gameplay annoying (for me anyway). Is there any way to make it more like T1 and T2 where eliminated guards didn't respawn??

What file do you download this intro screen to? Does it also allow you to escape out to get into options like before or do you have to load your game again when you go to options as in TDS?.........nevermind, I found out where on previous pages. DOH!
I am also interested in finding out how to get rid of the dramatic music/humming sound when zooming in with my mechanical eye. That is probably on the tweak board but can't locate it.

T.Rex and herechickychick, both have already been requested and are listed in the opening post.  No solution yet.

Just hit the jump key, Garret will clear his weapon. If you continue to hold the attack key, he'll redraw the bow.
The ESC key will  also clear the bow if you change your mind and want to use a different arrow or weapon for that matter.

I'm too tired to mess with it myself right now, but I can give you a lead.  Look for ButtonFont and ButtonFontColor in T3UI.ini under various headings.  That should probably work for you.  As for the back light, I don't know.  Look for lines that start with ChildWindow or LightWindow and call something from T3UILights.ini...
I think it's possible to move the buttons around, and I know you can change the button image.  If I wasn't lazy and incompetent, I'd take a shot at remaking the menus the way they used to be.

The tweak for "Weapon / Item HUD options"  had a side effect for me in the full version of the game.
By placing a semicolon in front of ChildWindow_3=ItemCycleWindow or ChildWindow_4=WeaponCycleWindow, the game would crash to the desktop when I started to pick a lock.
