Widescreen Patch Thief 2
Poroshin on 28/5/2008 at 14:05 Timeslip, this is just me thinking out loud, so feel free to ignore it, but I was thinking that perhaps it would be prudent to rename DDFix to something a little less ambiguous. We're still getting new threads almost daily asking to run Thief et al on a modern PC. And many people are still giving directions that seem to exclude DDFix (see here for the latest one: ). I'm not sure what the new name could be, but I like what we've settled on in terms of the widescreen patch. Perhaps, Dark Engine Modernizer could work? Again, just thinking out loud, and that name is terrible, but just wanted to throw this out there.
Pcsx2 Widescreen Patches
Hi there, I want to play 2 on co op mode and I'm totally confused on how to apply the patches to achieve the best experience. I heard about the multiplayer patch.

Unpack the archive( Thief2FixGUI-1.3.11.7z) to your Thief 1/2 game folder - you will need to download and install Winrar () to unzip '.7z ' files.

I've had a new graphics card for some time now, and I installed DDFix at around the time Broken Triad was released. I was very impressed with the graphical effects (and everything else). I only realised how much of a role DDFix had in that when, after completing the mission, I loaded it in Dromed to find things I'd missed. I don't use DDFix in Dromed, so I saw just what DDFix had saved me from seeing in T2:eek: I think the tga textures used were down to 3-4 levels of transparency, so thanks to DDFix I saw them pretty much as Eshaktaar intended.

Garret- son on 8/10/2008 at 20:39 Hi all i have vista home premiun 64 i have a problem to make works ddfix GUI wont open windos says ddfixgui has stopped working check online for solution close the program i read some in the redeame tex GUI version: XX Extract ddfixGUI.exe, ddfixGUI.dll, ddfix.dll and ddfix.ini to the same directory as thief2.exe. Run ddfixGUI.exe, click 'apply patch' and choose the resolution you want. On windows vista, the GUI must be started with admin rights to avoid issues when trying to patch thief2.exe. (Use '-noadmincheck' as a command line argument to disable this check.) You can use '-createdefaultini' to replace ddfix.ini with an unedited original copy. (This will also be done automatically if ddfix.ini doesn't exist.) i dont have idea what de means where to,: -noadmincheck and -createdefaultini i can run the game but looks terrible i have ATI 4870 x2 beta driver 8.10 any help sorry for mi bad english.
Melissa on at 03:51 Hello, I'd like to share what I had to do to make it Thief II run on my Vista 64-bit quad-core machine. I've read everything I can here and implemented (or tried to implement) the following in the following order: (1) The hyperthreading solution (that worked - note, requires a backup be made of the original thief2.exe) (2) The DDmod (GUI version) that fails to run with a useless error message from Windows (3) The Widescreen patch (that starts to run then aborts and undoes itself during the batch process) Then I found the already edited Thief2.exe and downloaded that, backed up the EXE from step one above, moved over the new one, and manually changed cam.cfg and ddmod.ini. Okay, back up THAT thief2.exe, and run step one again. Woo, game runs! It has black bars on either side, but pfft, I can live with that. Until I load a saved game.
Then is crashes to desktop. The only message is 'AppCrash' from Windows. So I ran DarkWidescreen.bat again, just for giggles, and this time it goes through.
I still have the black bars on either side, but the colors are nice and as I say above, pfft. I can live with black bars. Thanks for putting this here!
