Thief: The Dark Project
Submitted by Anonymous on 2001-06-01 12:00:00 This product has a rating of 5 out of 5 running under Windows 2000 Comments: Received the follow messages: 1) Run 'setup.exe -lgntforce' from the Thief CD. Then it will install under Windows 2000 without a problem. 2) I did not have to run 'setup.exe -lgntforce' from the Thief CD with the released version of Windows 2000 Professional as indicated by someone else's earlier post. The program 'autorun' after inserting the CD and it installed and played with no problem. I had the Windows 2000 compatibility patch applied before I installed Thief though. 3) Tried it with the -Igntforce and get 'This product cannot be installed on Windows NT due to a Microsoft DirectX(tm) limitation'. I have the MS Compatibility patch. NOTE - I run SMP with dual Celeron. 4) If run on SMP system try setting the thief.exe process to use only one processor. This is done in the Task Manager - right-click on the process and select "Set affinity". The game will normally freeze during gameplay if run on SMP systems without setting affinity first. |
