As for the rope problem, in cam_ext file, add this at the end of the file and save:

So I installed this patch the other day, and it's beyond stunning, but I did find some weird bugs. In the Lost City, in the old game after jumping in the canal we had just enough air to make it into the waterfall area with the spiders. But now, there's not enough, I run out of air and take damage every time (yes I can get a breath potion, but it's still weird). Another issue is with rope arrows, which are harder to latch onto if the end of the rope is really high up (I tried it in the Bonehoard in the pit with the face, and it took me 5 minutes of jumping around to finally be able to grab one of the ropes).

This HD MOD is compatible with "the Dark Project" version, like TFix? I installed TDP, then TFix and HD MOD, but there are only 3 objectives in mission "The Lost City". After rename HD MOD folder to HD MOD2 there are standard 4 objectives.

Someone else will know for sure, but I'm pretty sure you need NewDark to use the hi res textures in this mod. Why on earth are you still wanting to use OldDark and TFix anyway?
I believe he is just asking whether the HDmod is compatible with non-gold version of the game, and the answer to that question would be no. I had to do some extra stuff to add T1 compatibility to TFix and it turned out to be almost too much work to be actually worth it.
anyway, finally got the full release, so I will be looking at those flames soon. Gecko, you did mention a fix to the maw spiders - what was wrong with them?

yeah, but how did you fix it?
By changing the spider room with little air brushes and a lot of tests.
ok, thanks.
Can you fix it in 100%, because of these 3 savegames with blocking places - http://www.sendspace.pl/file/dc6c46f0364ffc2e76e802e ?
Another glitch with 3 spiders in level "Into the Maw of Chaos" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hrdQvNpqrY
About mission "The Sword" - how to sneak this Earth Crystal 401 (Moss Arrow 401)? There is entry to sneak it (this entry is too narrow), but after getting this moss arrow the player can't escape from this place.
Of course, a hole in mission "The Haunted Cathedral" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAECAK8lrjU
It's not compatible with TDP. Did you planning on create it as compatible with TDP, like in TFix's policy?

Sorry but i invested much time in that spider problem. But it looks like there is still a chance that some of the spiders sometimes are blocked. I will not try that again. But it's better with my fix than without...
So you have to live with that.
I'm not planning to make the mod compatible with TDP. At the moment i'm working on T2 HD Mod.
it'd probably be a good idea to use the overhauled maps - but do ask Antimatter_16 for a permission first.

Oh, yeah!
This is fantastic and has actually breathed new life into the game for me. Having not played it since 2009 properly I am actually doing a re-run of the entire game.
When I installed this mod, I lose Garret's comments to himself.E.g. At the very beginning of the game, Garret says something like "Not that way, there's too many guards" as he approaches the front entrance to Lord Bafford's Manor. Then when he hits the drunk guard by the well he says "That was too easy". All of these comments are lost when I install this mod. I tested it twice to make sure and I'm positive that this mod is the cause. Without the mod, Garret makes all his comments perfectly.
I saw another user on moddb post about this issue. I think it might be related to the fact that many of those comments are triggered by Garret's location, and putting down a new texture might affect the location-based triggers.
What difficulty are you playing on? IIRC those hint comments on Running Interference are only played on Normal.
I'm playing on expert, and he makes those comments just fine when I uninstall the HD mod. (P.S. running interference is Thief 2)
It is not HDMOD that disables those comments. It is TFix by voodoo47 that enables (adds) them. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
You might be on to something there. I think those comments are important because they add a lot of flavor to the game. Like when Garret first enters Lord Bafford's throne room, he laughs and says "He's got a throne room. How pretentious can you get?"
Thanks! I will do that.
@ Poetic thief
It's no bug because it's also not in the original game. It's a special gift what comes only with TFix. But the HD Mod uses it's own .mis files. I will try to include it in the next HD Mod version. It's much work (for me) because you have to build a new "Room" database for every single adage. Also you have to change all the other room databases...
How much work is it to add the sound files to your .mis files? Probably easier than recreating HD Mod in TFix .mis files. After waiting until HD Mod was 99.9% to install it, I see why bloom is a MUST. I get a headache from so much detail at a distance. It looks phenomenal up close, but it's very noisy at a medium distance (this is with the highest mipmap, -.5,0). I don't suppose there is a depth of field setting waiting for me to play with in the engine...
If it would be so easy. Please read my last post again! The required sound files are already in the archive. That's not the problem!
You have to use a value of mipmap -0,5 (-1,0 is default). If you use -5,0 it's no wonder that all looks noisy...
One projectile, or multi projectiles from fire elementals? What is the better intention for HD MOD? Original Thief - 1 projectile, TFix - also 1 projectile.

Thats the one I meant Gecko, I just wrote it wrong from memory. Playing with the most negative mipmap would be insanely distracting. Fortunately bloom does soften the textures a bit while retaining the detail.
How the hell the HD MOD still have this issue - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TXUtHTZLTg ?
