There is always a way to get it working. Thief is better than Thief 2. I can't give you a solution but I'm sure someone can.

Did you put empty spaces between the lines of code?
Tried, makes no difference. The safe_texture_manager is what gets both Thief 2 & SS2 running for me, but Thief 1 does not seem to know it. I have to use the fixed Thief.exe from the technical FAQ. The game runs. I can do the tutorial, and play the first mission. However, it inevitably crashes during the first mission, at a random point. The furthest I have ever managed to go is roughly 10 minutes into it before it crashed. The game simply hangs, the sound "skips" and repeat itself, and all I can do is hard reset. Sometimes it buggers up my install as well. Yesterday after such a crash the game would not load up any mission anymore, and I had to reinstall it. I can't think of what the reason could be, and so I can't think of how to fix it.

hmm..have you considered (
