I'm not afraid about the performance of Intel graphics anymore (thanks to snobel), I'm afraid of it's visual artifacts, freezes etc.
BTW, is your Pentium III + Radeon 9100 rig a peer to Thief 2? I can't believe that any PC can live that long :wot:. Just curious: what motherboard is in it: Asus, Chaintech, Gigabyte, MSI, ...?
it's been made directly by intel, it seems (//intel d815efvu). has some nice extra features (temperature monitoring etc). bough it to house my Obsidian2 200SBi, but ended up using it for many strange tasks and tests. this one included.

Now if we could just figure out why Albert tagged this thread "shimmy cocopuff". :weird:

I have noticed a bit more lag during gameplay for some reason (using the same resolution as I normally have it), but the map, books/scrolls, and loading times load way faster now.

Huh. I tried this on Thief Gold.
Did the basic stuff. Lo and behold, it works!
So I renamed Thief2.exe to Thief.exe
Lo and behold, it works!!! :joke:
No...way :o

Er, (
http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=134733) TFix also has 1.19 now to play TG.
However, for me the Thief Enhancement pack has always been sort of overkill for T1/TG. I'd prefer to see some high-quality, low-poly thing come out of the works, sorta like those low-poly packs for games like TF2. Stylized and good design, but not an absurdly over-detailed texture.

Were you playing with vsync enabled before? 1.19 enables vsync by default, which can cause between 0 and 16ms of latency between display updates, depending.

This thread made my week.
I am having a problem though!
I'm running Windows 7 64. I reinstalled System Shock 2 using the -lgntforce switch and used the official SS2 patch to get to 2.3. I then copied the contents of the two zip files to the SS2 folder. The game launches and plays fine.
However, I get an Insert CD warning after removing the CD. This is even after confirming that skip_starting_checks is NOT commented in cam_ext.cfg. The game still works after clicking Cancel three times but I'd like to lose the warning entirely.
Any ideas?

In install.cfg, comment out the cd_path. Simples.
