Not impressed. Just played the first level in just over an hour. The
architecture is very poor compared with Dark Project, the rooms seem as
empty as one of Saddams palaces and hardly any pictures on the walls even.
There is also a lack of any sense of mystery and plot. The level is ...

Heh -
Never tried this before.  As I was finishing up LORD MATT, I realized that I
had blackjacked the Prince when I actually needed to do him in.  With this in
mind, I had to figure out a way to accomplish that last goal while having a

Recently you had posted a message wondering how many fans there were for the Thief community. Someone had replied and mentioned the title of one of your books, "Lords and Ladies".
I don't think that you do but I'll ask just in case: Have you thought about designing FMs based on ...

I think I just figured out why there'd been no 2nd CoSaS mission - they were
all hired by Eidos for Thief 3! 8)

Hi Taffers,
I have just started to play Thief 2. But I can't seem to run, just walk. I
have a large amount of memory; AMD Athalon processor and a NVIDIA G Force
gamecard. Is this normal? Thanks...

Although I have just started the first level I find that I can only move at
walking pace and cannot run from the guards, is this normal?
(I have just upgraded and my gamecard is fab and not affecting other games.)

Hi Taffers,
I hate to admit it but I enjoy taking out the guards. In Thief I the
'expert' difficulty setting is always the Mahatma Ghandi non-violent "Dont
kill anyone" approach.

I'm trying to play Thief 2 in 1024*768 on an Athlon 1700 with an ATI Radeon
9700 and 512 MB of RAM. No trouble there, but whenever I try to read a book
or scroll in the game or access the main menu my monitor loudly clicks and
resets itself, I guess because all of those types of ...

I've had a lot of fun with this game, but-- what's this? I'm about 550g
short of the 1,800 I need!  Is there some big major secret in this game
I could have missed? Done the Mechanist Church, the pub (can't open one
door there) armour, docks, a number of small premises.  ...

There is a patch available at several Thief-related websites, and included
on Ben Ramsey's excellent Thief Fan Mission CD sets, which Thief Gold
content to a regular old Thief install such that you can play fan missions
which require Thief Gold resources.  It was written about three ...

I'm trying to install Thief 2 on a system running Direct X 9.0b, but the
autorun screen is not giving the option - just Install Direct X, Readme,
Find Updates and Quit. Has anyone else encountered this? Advice on how to
install would be most welcome, I have saved games all ready to ...

I was just exploring and decided to jump off the "mountain top" where
you start the second chapter.  Amusingly, just before I fell to my
death, I noticed a bunch of guards placed around the base of the
"mountain".  

I seem to have missed out on the prequel to this mission - L'Arsene, is it?
It's not on Komag's Thief CDs - at least, not version 6.10 - but I am
downloading it from thiefmissions.com as I type.  Guess I'll go finish that
first.

I've cleaned out all the shops, to my knowledge, including the safe in their
underground lair.  Also robbed the home for girls (St. Something-or-other)
blind and generally stripped everywhere I could get to bare of anything of
value.  I also went down in the sewers, got the diamonds ...

I'm having a problem with Thief 1 I never had before.  I've reinstalled it,
but that didn't fix.  Anyway, the problem is that almost *every damn time*
the game has to play some sound effect it hasn't played during that
particular session, it accesses the CD drive.  This is EXTREMELY ...
