Yes, yes, I know this has been covered a billion times before. I've done a search, I've tried things suggested but have hit a wall.

I want the wav files from the first thief game so I can amuse myself by listening to them, assign them as computer sounds, etc and have tried every tool and 'trick' I have found on these boards but none of them work.

I have the downloadable vs of Thief Gold (the one you download as a demo, then buy for 25 bucks through that trymedia or whatever it is) and while the game runs just fine, there is no dromed included with it, and every time I try to extract the sound files I get a 'file is corrupt' , or it can't find the files at all, or it just sits there, or with the 'Thief Edit' tool from the circle I get a message saying "ZipMSGXX.res is probably not linked to the executable Missing String ID is: 11036"

Whatever that means.

I'm getting rather frustrated, to say the least.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get the contents of this file? Or even download it at this point? Or do I need to keep trying to find a disc copy of the game? (Which I DO want to do anyway, since this trymedia stuff only lets you reinstall three times :mad: , and I have a habit of uninstalling games when I'm not actively using them. Which means they are likely to get uninstalled/reinstalled a lot more than just three times. :weird: )

Yes. I downloaded it six different times from two different places, and tried to extract all the files into different locations. My thief folder, a folder of its own, the desktop and the results are all the same. That stupid error.

It does, however, open T2 files just fine.
