Apologies if this has been addressed before - as I couldnt find an answer using search.
For some reason when I play fan missions (using darkloader to boot them up) now Thief Gold will be running at super speed. I mean, everything - from Garrett to the guards to the sounds that are played - everything is sped up significantly. Its like having a permanent speed potion - but unfortunately everyone else does as well. It pretty much ruins the game. I have no idea why the game bugged up.
Anyone else had this happen or know how to fix it without re-installing? This is very strange.
Thanks in advance!

Use ddfix to force your refresh rate to 60fps. Open ddfix.ini and edit the appropriate value (RefreshRate=).
Else force v-sync in your GPU driver's control panel applet for the T2 exe.

I will give it a try, thank you!
This seems to have fixed the problem. Many thanks to you!

That isn't a bug, it is the super secret Benny Hill mode. :p

This is because modern computers are too much for thief. Since it's an old game (please don't take offense, I love thief just as much as anyone else, but it's the truth!) and modern hardware have come such a long way since it's release (CPU upgrades, more ram, graphics cards, etc.) the modern hardware cause the game to be in super speed. (Not to mention the slew of other problems taffers are having with modern hardware. :erg:)
