A tweak for the demo:
To see the French, Italian, German or Spanish texts in the game, edit your (Thief3-Demo)/System/Default.ini. There is a section called "Locale" around line 829 where you can comment out the line "Language=english" and uncomment your target language. Note: to actually save your changes, remove Default.ini's write protection.

Added the last few submissions to the opening post.
Erluk- I remembered seeing something like that in the default.ini for the full game; sure enough, it was there, and your tweak works for the full version as well as the demo.
I also tried out deadman's Auto-Resurrection cheat. After changing the appropriate line, I went and got myself killed. After a few moments, I got up again, ready for another fight. The only problem was that I was now standing waist-deep in solid rock- coming back to life had dropped me partway through the floor!
Something else I tried was to set the startup movie to the cinematic intro, since someone mentioned it in another thread. This didn't work, though. I can read some movies like the Eidos logo from the Thief 3 installation directory, but not others, like the cinematic intro. The line says ShortIntroMovies- maybe a restriction of some kind on what movies will play?

I've been messing with a lot of settings in the game myself, but sometimes its hard to tell if something worked in my favor or worked against me. Anyone know if there is a way to display your frame rate?

Still no instructions on how to get rid of glint and arrow trails?

This one is cool to mess with...
Under [Physics] in the Default.ini
the default is
JumpHeight__t=48
change to
JumpHeight__t=60 for a little more lift
JumpHeight__t=115 for some serious ups yo.
WHO SAID WHITE THIEVES CAN'T JUMP?!?!
I noticed the jumpheight_t value and tried changing it before this thread, but it never seemed to change my jump height. Are you sure it's changing for you?

I think if it weren't for loot glint, I couldn't play on expert without getting yell-at-the-computer frustrated. :erg:

If you don't like the weird tinted look you get when you zoom with your mechanical eye (I do, but it may annoy some people), you can remove this effect by editing you DEFAULT.INI file.
Look for the [CameraOverlays] section.
It looks like this...
[CameraOverlays]
EnableCameraOverlays=true
CameraOverlay_0__t=MechEyeOverlay
You can either set EnableCameraOverlays to false, or set CameraOverlay_0__t to 0. Both will do the trick, but the latter has the least chance of effecting anything else in the game.

Yea the glint isn't that bad... it's mainly the arrow trails I want to be rid of.
But, I would like to make the glint less FREQUENT
