That sounds really great! I'm looking forward to itI guess this is one of those cases where more is merrier.
There are some plants made by vurt. But this is not the final version of "Trial of blood" yet. Don't forget it's v0.9.5

How would Trial of Blood look with that greenish fog from Strange Bedfellows? I've always imagined the pagan forrests with that fog, I might have been influenced by TDP intro thoughThere are some plants made by vurt. But this is not the final version of "Trial of blood" yet.

Ok fms work now but when i was playing CoSaS: Mission X the Main Menu was messed up, instead the fancy menu that it should be, I got the default Thief 2 menu with the icons to the sides.
When i would play Brawl in the Tombs, The Hammerite Imporium, and Dark Beginnings, I would not get the main menu that fm should have, I would end up with the default menu, with the main heading all blacked out.
And fortuni, in my main thief folder i did not have all of those files, all I have is the books file you mentioned.
That fine.....if you ever do use darkloader and it starts going weird, those are the files you clean up....if they are not there....that's fine. If you only ever use FMsel these files should remain empty, or not even exist as they are only re-installed when you play Thief through Darkloader
Forgive me, but I'm not really understanding this all very well. My inner noob is bursting out.
I have Steam Thief 2. I installed New Dark and Tafferpatcher and then this mod.
I don't see any HD changes, and I can't edit the water/graphics settings other that the T2 standards in Options?
How do I edit the New Dark settings? Please help? Thanks!
Ok I went to increase the gamma in the options menu, and when I set the gamma halfway along the bar in the menu, when I would resume the game my screen would remain in the pause menu with the health and light gem in the screen and I would here the in-game sounds.
Is this a bug for the HD mod, because I never had this issue until I installed the mod
I have Darkloader 4.3
Oh and would having EP2 installed before the HD Mod be the cause of all these gliches, because when I installed the newest Thief Gold HD mod, EP2 was already installed and I have had no issues.

I see my objection about the running interference texture has been ignored. Is it that a. people don't want to comment or b. disagree but are afraid to stir the pot?
Even Gecko failed to address it, but I'm guessing he didn't want to discuss it.
I am just curious to know if it's just me being too picky or if anyone else finds the texture out of place.
@ Gecko......when i asked about a possible HDmod issue with Thief1 HDmod you advised me to check as to whether it was an HD issue by pasting my 'darkgam' file from my old Thief install into the HD mod and if the problem had gone then yes it was an HD issue
I have noticed that with Thief2 HDmod the darkgam file is the same file by both date and size in the new HDmod as it is in the old Thief file, are they the same file.....if so, how can i check possible HD issues with this new mod before posting any problems or issues

just had a look.....yeah your being a bit picky......but think of it this way, it is the servants quarters so why should the Lord of the Manor put down nice shiny tiled flooring when good old fashioned dirt flooring will do.................

im not the one to ask about you main page loading glitches, im a total computer dummy.....i only answered to your 1st post cos i had hella of a time getting HD1 installed correctly, only wish i had known what Gecko told you in his post 6 months ago...it may have saved me a lot of grieve back then, and it was only after i posted about cleaning up darkloader that i saw Gecko had already answered, but i do hope you get it resolved, however you may find it quicker in the long run to totally uninstall Thief2, remove all files from your Thief folder and start again ( hopefully you will still have HDmod file in your downloads)
sorry i can't be any more help.............
firstly when you install the HD mod, the automatic installer chooses where the HD mod should go and by default will have chosen Steam/Thief2/Thief2 ( that's because in your Thief 2 file also contains within it another file called Thief2.....go and check that 2nd Thief2 file and see if your HDmod is in there....if so remove/delete it and re-install the HDmod, but this time remove the 2nd Thief2 from the default choice of the HDmod installer.....so your path should read something like D:/Steam/Thief2 ....then install
if you have installed the HDmod correctly, go to your Steam/Thief file and the Water_Mod_Tool should be the very last entry in Thief file,
and New Dark Graphics Settings should be immediately above 'NVScript.osm' file.....click on either to use
I think you're being picky.
Gecko, I think texture parkay64 (core_2) should have a terrain scale of 128 instead of 64.
Am I being picky for this? I don't think so.
And I agree with sNeaksyGarrett about the texturing in some places. I know what he means and I agree with him.
That`s why I choose the textures I like from Gecko (great job) and look for other textures elsewhere and in this way I eventually make my own Thief2 from different sources. There's a lot to pick from.
Yeap, that's being picky, as well.
How is offering constructive criticism picky? Seriously now.
For the record, I'm not saying there should be tile in the area outside of the kitchen, just that the cracked rock texture or whatever it is feels out of place to me.
I can't honestly say what it should be, but obviously a tile texture wouldn't make sense in that location as you say fortuni.
What is it "
No thats fine, you gave me some fixes that might have worked and I appreciate it.im not the one to ask about you main page loading glitches, im a total computer dummy.....i only answered to your 1st post cos i had hella of a time getting HD1 installed correctly, only wish i had known what Gecko told you in his post 6 months ago...it may have saved me a lot of grieve back then, and it was only after i posted about cleaning up darkloader that i saw Gecko had already answered, but i do hope you get it resolved, however you may find it quicker in the long run to totally uninstall Thief2, remove all files from your Thief folder and start again ( hopefully you will still have HDmod file in your downloads)

Gecko can you explain the main menu glitches, if you can because I really don't want to uninstall everything, no offense to you fortuni.
Also fortuni i just registered 3 days ago, you probably have me confused with someone else.

I didn't mean to cause any offence Sneakie....my comment about nice shiny tiled flooring was purely tongue in cheek.....I would not have even noticed unless you had pointed it out
I'm sure there will be a number of textures with the new HD mod that to your FM author eyes will look wrong, but to non authors such as that flooring will go straight over our heads, we will probably only pick up on really glaring mis-matches, and objects, doors and frobbables that don't work
Do carry on with positive criticism.....just so long as you don't Mind me responding with tongue in cheek answers.....
I like that idea! I will try it out and then i post some screesnhots. ThxHow would Trial of Blood look with that greenish fog from Strange Bedfellows? I've always imagined the pagan forrests with that fog, I might have been influenced by TDP intro though
Open the HDMOD folder and rename the folder called "intrface" to "intrface_". That should solve the problem! I think will fix that problem in the next HDMOD version.
Please check your install_path:
Don't install it under the path "Thief2\Thief2".
The path should look like this:
(Example 1): D:\Games\Thief2\
(Example 2): D:\Games\SteamApps\common\thief_2\
I can't remember that i've ever had a problem like this. And i don't think that it has something to do with the hdmod.
You can replace the texture with another if you don't like it. I've tested also many T2 FMs with the hdmod and i think the texture fits great all in all...
No they are not the same files. The gamesys from the T2 HDMOD was taken from "AM16s Thief2 Fixed version 1.1e" and i've added some new things for the improved fire flames.
Thank you! I will check this!
@ Gecko
Does that mean by swopping the DarkGam file is the best way of checking for HD2 Mod issues / problems ?
Great! All set now...looks great!
