Maybe read my earlier reply where I directed you to the config file where it's mentioned?

I can't seem to get sunlight to render object shadows. When I place a sewer lamp next to the same objects they cast shadows just fine. It only seems to be with the sunlight. Anyone else have that problem?

Found this in the trouble shooting guide (there's a troubleshooting guide!! I don't think any of the original LGS releases had one of those!!).
Thanks for pointing this out! I'd been getting good, but
slightly uneven frame rates in the new engine. Tried the solution in the troubleshooting doc for this issue of going into cam_ext.cfg and changing "d3d_disp_limit_gpu_frames" to "1 1", and now it runs absolutely buttery smooth.

I made these changes to the cam_ext.cfg that came with the patch. I just added them to the bottom. ((Both Generic Hardware and Generic Software seem to work fine on my rig, I just guessed that hardware would be faster than software and that seems to work))

Oh! I almost forgot: I also went into my install.cfg and (since I created new directories for testing this out, to keep from corrupting my working T1/G/2 directories) I edited all the directory references to point at the new 119 directories. For my new T1G install.cfg this meant:

Does surround sound work for anybody using OpenAL? I'm using HDMI out via the ATI on-board hi-def sound controller, and when I switch the demo to OpenAL + EAX it's only stereo (it's mono in no acceleration or regular hardware acceleration modes). Tried speaker settings in both quadrophonic and 7.1 and no difference. And it's using Generic Software Device already.
Otherwise everything worked great, and since it uses a D3D9 renderer now I was even able to turn on stereo 3D, which looked pretty sweet.
[edit]Okay, surround works with OpenAL and my X-fi. I guess it just doesn't like the AMD HDMI Output. Lame. Will have to get an optical cable and run that to the receiver.

Lots of wonderful things here! Even the OM's look better with the lighting, and I love being able to get off a ladder without jumping. But the little thing I noticed that I really appreciate is when buying items in the store there isn't the slight lag from clicking on the item and the purchase sound. :cheeky: I know that sounds odd, but it always bugged me.
Also, it might be time for me to finally learn to use DromEd.

So is there a performance increase for say... King's Story
NOW I have to try it! (I beta tested KS, so I know how badly it slowed down most systems.
Time to reinstall Thief.

Yes, you are. As mentioned in the documentation, and reiterated by LarryG, it's not "game dark1". It's just "dark1".
So your cam.cfg will still contain:
Code:
; hey, which game is this
game dark
And then somewhere cam_ext.cfg will contain:
Code:
; enable Thief 1 compatibility
dark1
