Exactly the same. All files are there and their size and metadata are also the same.

I also see the Newgame.str file. This information is readable ingame.
The only text I cannot see is the main menu text.

Maybe the path to the secret network drive is too long. I recommend a local drive for T2, for example C:\Games

>too long
As I see Fm loader unpacks zip with the mission to FMs directory where the game is. So the source path of zip is no longer involved.
But thanks for your time. I'll try to play with dark.cfg (in the FM's subdirectory) (I saw there few strings about fonts types). maybe it'll lead me to something interesting.

I overlooked some parts of the log :cheeky:
The log says, OS is win 10. Correct?
Video card is ATI RADEON 7200 series. What? A almost 20 year old video device? Is this correct?
A.Stahl on 30/3/2019 at 09:34
No, it is Linux, so Wine tells whatever it sees fit.
And in most cases it just works. And, as I told, these problems were the same under Windows with modern video card.

I'm not sure how does it called. Standard, which is compiled in the *.exe file.

That's FMSel.
Switch to Windows a try it, maybe it's a wine issue in this case.

Hi A.Stahl I'm a Linux user too and have used wine to run thief for 7 years now - so it's possible.
I think that Unna Oertdottir is on to something regarding your Wine installation.
Do you have the correct versions of wine_gecko and wine-mono installed, along side a newer version of Wine?
I run Wine through PlayOnLinux so the installation of these differ from your installation.
The problem you describe in the OP, especially regarding the fonts sounds a lot like the absence of wine_gecko and wine-mono
I'm using these:
Wine version 3.0 in 32bit, and version 3.2 in 64bit.
And:
wine_gecko-2.40-x86.msi
wine_gecko-2.40-x86_64.msi
wine-mono-4.5.6.msi
In the end your FMsel should look 99,9% like it does in windows, and once inside the thief game there shouldn't be any difference.
