Hey NV (or anyone else who might be able to helpl) I just reinstalled Thief G after a long hiatus and I'm trying to get your EP to work with Orgy's Texture pack and Daemonite's pack... along of course with DDfix (cause it won't even run without that in Win 7) and the Dark Engine Widescreen mod. I had them working all together about a year ago, but I reinstalled windows since then and lost that iteration of the game.
I'm kinda needy. Sorry.
So anyhow I managed to get all these working together ONCE just recently. I'm not sure in what order I installed them all, but they worked. Yay. Then everything went to hell when I set my resolution from 1280x720 to 1920x1080... for some reason. Garrett's sword arm for some reason had no texture, just a white blob, and none of the other arm textures seemed to work. Flashbombs, boxes, loot items all remained high res. No idea how that happened but I'm sure I screwed something up.
Defeated, I decided to uninstall TG and reinstall the mods, but since then I have been totally unable to get the entire set of mods working again and I don't know what I did wrong. I always get the white arms thing for the sword and end up with default textures for Garrett's arms for all other weapons, despite having Daemonite's pack installed. Again, not sure how I managed to do that, but I'm sure it was my fault.
So I was wondering if there is a particular order of install that works to get all these mods running together?
Also, would it just be feasible to... paste everything from Daemonite's and ORgy's pack into EP.crf , being careful to control what overwrites . Otherwise can I pack each of them into their own .crf and fiddle with the install.cfg? My understanding of how Thief controls its mod load orders and the like is lacking. I tried following the instructions here: (

Thanks,
Sorry for the novel.
