Thief 1/Gold Nvidia Driver Fixes
- 1:23:28 PM - Dave
Bobruck has sent in his own patches for Thief: The Dark Project and Thief: Gold that solve the recent troubles with Nvidia drivers that are v5x.xx and above.
The specific error fixed is Direct 3D Device does not accurately report texture memory usage. which is shown when starting a level. You may not see the message, but hear the Windows Error sound and see a black screen. Unzip the file inside the ZIP file and overwrite the installed Thief EXE. The files are available in our Patches & Mods section. They are also linked to below.
Cheers Bobruck!

  • Thief: The Dark Project v1.14 Nvidia 5x.xx Driver Fix.
  • Thief: The Dark Project v1.33 Nvidia 5x.xx Driver Fix.
  • Thief: Gold Nvidia 5x.xx Driver Fix.

    (Be sure to BACKUP your Thief EXE! These are 3rd party patches and Thief-TheCircle.com cannot in any way support these files. Use at your own risk! - Dan)

    Update II:
    I'm afraid we will not be providing the Thief2 fixed EXE.
    Unfortunatley the Thief 2 fixed EXE also acts as a No-CD crack. This is a grey area and we have commited ourselves to discouraging the use of fixed EXEs. We do not currently have a problem with the Thief 1 and Thief Gold exes as the CD check on the vast majority of released versions can be bypassed by altering the install.cfg file.
    We recommend that Thief 2 users experiencing this problem use pre-5x.xx drivers or place the line safe_texture_manager into their user.cfg file, which works reliably. Please accept my apologies for any inconvenience caused. ~David
