If it requires VC++ 2008 components, then it's not for Win2000 either, only XP SP3 and higher.

Strange... Microsoft says something (http://www.microsoft.com/ru-ru/download/details.aspx?id=5582) different (see requirements): Windows 2000 SP4 is minimum.

Well I'll be damn... This completely came out of left field, and had it not been for a post on the Thief 1 and 2 group on steam I wouldn't have seen this!:erm: (Or at least, it might have been some time before I found it.)

Here's my mirror of the (http://www.gamefront.com/files/22328653/t2_v119.zip) Thief 2 v1.19

I've a problem. I installed thief 2, patched to 1.8 then applied 1.9 and the game works perfectly. Problem is that dromed won't work. It opens, but when I open a fan mission or try to go in game mode it freezes. Does anybody have a idea on how i might fix it or what I did wrong?

I have found an Error in the File Menus.cfg . You can´t use Portalize and Optimize in the Menu (in Dromed).
You must open the File Menu.cfg with an editor or wordpad and search for this line

menu_tools &Portalise:run Portalise.cmd | &Optimise:run optimise.cmd

and change it to

menu_tools &Portalize : portalize | &Optimize : optimize

save the File and you can use Portalize and Optimize from the Menu
You must enter the line without the spaces at Portalize : portalize and Optimize : optimize
When i try to type that here i get smilies in the line

This would be better asked in (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=140086) The Editor's Guild, but did you also extract the updated DromEd?

I've submitted a test for Wine 1.5.13 on (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=1697) AppDB, which will appear as soon as the Super Maintainer has approved it.

I've put it under the title "Unofficial 1.19 Patch", and I misspelled "unnoficial". :p

Huh? Portalize and Optimize worked for me out of the box. So did Complete Processing. I'm just double checking using Finals at the Academy ... yep both are OK for me with no edits ... you mean Menus.cfg I think.

Yes i mean Menus.cfg . But when i tried Portalize or Optimize from the Menu nothing happens . After i changed it they work

LarryG on 26/9/2012 at 17:35

Odd. They work fine for me. Oh well. If some else has the problem, you have something for them to try.

Just to be clear, your changes are:

Code:

menu_tools &Portalize:Portalize | &Optimize:optimize

I guess the thing to do is to look and see what *.cmd you have from your dromed directory and use those spellings in menus.cfg

Mine were spelled with an "s" and not a "z"

is s vs. z a French spelling thing?

To me, it looks like the spelling of Portalize is localized (or localised) for different parts of the world, but the patch does not account for that.
