I've modded the HUD to a less obtrusive version but am having difficulty with the finishing touches. I'm trying to move the text descriptions for the item & weapon selection operations and can't figure out how to do it. I know I can make the text smaller, but I can't seem to move the text around any.
Anybody know how to do this?
Thanks...

Ohh, forum! Heh heh... nah, I don't think we need to go THAT far.
And I've done up comparison screenshots between the normal loot glint, Keeper_Silvas' version and my version. Note that you can barely see mine in the screenshot- it's a BIT more visible in motion, but still very understated. Keeper_Silvas's is actually physically shrunk, so it looks more intense up close- but not as visible at a distance as the regular glint.

I read that this had already been posted somewhere so sorry to repeat or to present a silly way of doing it (haven't found a way in the .ini files)
open
\Content\T3\Sounds\SchemaMetafile_HardDrive.csc
with a hex editor
do a free text search for "mechanicaleye", in the demo there are four instances of it. I just changed the first letter "m" to an underscore, or anything, so the program wouldn't be able to find the right sound file.
Editing the first two instances seems to be enough.
The four instances in the demo file are at hex offsets
21202, 24C3C, 9704E, 2D1CC5
don't have full version yet waiting waiting

Sticky is right, this not a hood, rather it is caused by bad drawing. What you're actually seeing is the inside of Garrett's face.
Yep - you're both right. I took my new ATI Radeon back and exchanged it for a slightly more expensive NVidia GeForce FX 5200. Now Thief looks even better, and the "hood" effect is gone.
BTW, what made up my mind was that it was doing the same thing on one of my wife's games, and it was bugging her too. Spending $120 on a video card is a lot easier when you have the wife's permission.

In the full version, the hex addresses are 44059h (mechanicaleye_zoom), 47c8bh (mechanicaleye_activate), c8249h (mechnicaleye_zoom), 3260d2h (mechanicaleye_activate). Not sure which of the 2 for each sound are the actual sound though.
I've used a (
http://tnlc.com/eep/tr/utils.html#sjack) sound extractor on the CSC files and have been able to listen (and extract) some sounds from them, like the dreaded "loot" pickup sound <shudder>, which is WAV # 589 at 16aah (but there's also a "pu_loot" at 475f2h) in case anyone wants to kill it.
Unfortunately, the sound extractor can't inject WAVs. :erg:

Hi all, quick ini question, wheres the spot to adjust the size of the weapon icon, such as your dagger, water arrow, etc icon. Not the gear selector just the bottom right hand weapon icon. I wanted to scale it down a tad. Thanks...

Thanks for that. :thumb: There are many combinations that you could have.. such as a small but faded glint etc.
I only have the demo so I havent been able to test it to its fullest yet. ;)
