Thief II: The Metal Age v1.23 update
====================================
1.23 Notes
----------
Like the previous update, this is a maintenance patch with bug fixes and some new additions.
See list below. Consider all prior versions obsolete and do not use them any more.
Files saved (by either the game or DromEd) with v1.23 are not compatible with older versions.
Older DromEd versions may appear to be able to load the files, but some things will be severely broken.
1.22 Notes
----------
This is a maintenance patch that fixes a number of things and adds a few new ones.
See list below. Consider all prior versions obsolete and do not use them any more.
1.21 Notes
----------
This is a hotfix for v1.20 to fix broken multi-monitor support (which was made worse by the multi-
GPU and display fix in v1.20) and a pair of minor glitches. Otherwise this is identical to v1.20.
1.20 Notes
----------
This is a maintenance patch for v1.19. It fixes a handful of mostly smaller, but also some more
serious, issues. See list below. Consider v1.19 obsolete and do not use it any more.
Various documentation has been
it's recommended that you browse through them
again even if you're already familiar with them from a previous update.
Note to anyone who adjusted vertical mouse sensitivity ("mouse_sensitivity_y_scale" in user.bnd):
As of v2.41 the vertical and horizontal sensitivity is the same so you have to change
"mouse_sensitivity_y_scale" back to the default value of 1. The old behavior can be enabled with
"mouse_sensitivity_use_aspect 1".
Note to anyone with multiple GPUs or display devices:
Due to a bug fix the game may now end up using the "wrong" device (again), or rather the correct
device because it previously used the wrong one. Go to the Video options menu and change the device
under "Hardware Driver". Alternatively edit "cam.cfg" and remove the line "d3d_driver_index"
to restore default device usage.
This is an unofficial patch for Thief II: The Metal Age (T2) which updates the game from either v1.18
or newer to v1.23, providing improved support for modern hardware and correcting many known bugs. T2
can be purchased digitally from GOG () and Steam (). If you prefer a
boxed copy, it can usually be found on Mastertronic and Amazon (or similar).
This patch is made available "as is" and without warranty of any kind. It was not developed by
Eidos/Square Enix, Looking Glass Studios, GOG, Steam, Mastertronic, or Amazon, and is neither
supported nor endorsed by them or anyone else. The aforementioned parties cannot be held responsible
for any problems or damages incurred by this software. If you do not agree with these terms then do
not apply the update.
T2 and its resources/executables are the property of Eidos/Square Enix.
Permission is granted to any party that has obtained the legal rights to sell the original (v1.18 or
earlier) game, such as GOG and Steam, to include this update, as long as they also have been granted
permission by Eidos/Square Enix to do so.
Installation
------------
Requires Windows 2000 or later.
You must have a valid install of either T2 v1.18 or newer. If you have an old CD/DVD version of the
game, which is older than v1.18, then you need to update it to v1.18 first.
Extract the contents of the "new_dark.zip" and "contrib.zip" archives into your T2 directory, and you
are done. If you are updating an install that has already been patched to v1.19 or newer, then you
are well advised to make backup copies of the configuration files "cam_ext.cfg", "cam_mod.ini" and
"lg.ini" before installing the new update.
v1.20 or newer should be able to load savegames made with v1.18, but this is best avoided. Savegames
made with v1.20 or newer are however NOT compatible with v1.18. Generally loading savegames saved with
an older version of the game should work, but loading savegames saved with a newer version into an older
version of the game should always be avoided.
If OpenAL is available on your system, it can be enabled in the Audio options menu through the option
"Hardware Acceleration", which will toggle between "ON", "OFF" and "OpenAL". If you don't have OpenAL
but you want to use it, you will have to install the OpenAL libraries first (link provided below).
IMPORTANT: The "Visual Studio 2008 SP1 C++" and "DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010)" runtime
DLLs are required to run (the DirectX ones are only required when running with DX9,
which is default). While most systems probably already have them installed, by default
or through other applications and games, they can be missing on some. Below are the
official download links.

the load-conversion can be re-enabled with the config var dxt_to_rgb32)
- added "force" button next to the "multi-brush me" button, which multibrushes all objects in an area brush,
even if they've previously been assigned to a different multibrush

- fixed a crash that could happen during loading of larger (somewhere above 100MB) mis files
- added subtitle support

- It is no longer necessary to explicitly add the Hidden property to a secret object for the secret to be properly counted
- Added numeric keypad input support
- DromEd will no longer stop working after 03:14:07 on Tuesday, 19 January 2038
- Added "scroll here" option to the right-click menu for solo views, similar to the "teleport camera" option for non-solo views
- Fixed some issues with calculating which room cells are in (which might have caused problems with precipitation and fogging)
- Increased the time range of Tweqs to 0-65535
- The same property can no longer be added to an object multiple times
- Fixed a crash when adding the Texture Anim Data property to a concrete object

Changed Limits/Limitations

Note that not all limits imply that it's possible to push as far as the limit suggests, because other parts of the
engine might hit another limit first. For example the max brush limit might be hit before the max regions limit,
or vice versa. Also note that the increased limits do not imply that the game will run at playable framerates up
to those limits, or even close.

Yep, done, sorry, I'm confused...
Translation is difficult... "It has not dived in the night! My letters are certainly not anonymous but informers, Raven returns to report rob you in feathers" (google translation... if someone has better )
All hail mousewheel zoom!
There we go.

Wow! Thanks Black Bird of Happiness.
Always a welcome and exciting surprise when these updates pop-up.
Good to know Le Corbeau lives still
Always good to see one of these patches. I'm imagining that one day, the Dark Engine will be just as good as a modern day engine, without the complexity of those.

Stop being a crazy person.
Great news!
Okay so how long before the new tafferpatcher and t-fix come out with these additions?
And I guess this means scp beta 2 for system shock 2 fans is delayed too..lol
Or is there maybe a quick way to upgrade like last time it was just copying 2 files? I will leave this to the experts.
Thanks for the update and will wait patiently for more news.
It's not hard. All I did was copy over files with dates newer than the ones in my old installation, taking care not to overwrite any config or ini files without first transcribing prior customizations. I wasn't so careful once, and lost my ability to do screenshots until I restored that parameter to my prior setting. I've since isolated all my config customizations to the end of the config files where they can be grabbed easily and copied into the new config files.
pretty sure that if you grab just the main exe and (contents of) contrib and drop them into whatever install you are running now it will work ok, if you don't want to wait until the patchers are updated. TFix 1.22 should be ready by the end of the week - I'll pretty much just update the core files, throw in the fixed ladders and publish, not getting into a new round of map fixes before I'm done with the SS2 stuff.
SCP beta2 shouldn't be delayed much because of this, I mean there are no game changers that would force us to redo things with 2.44 as far as I can tell.
I know I'm not a moderator but can I suggest Dromed discussion takes place in the Editors' Guild?
Slightly less tormented Moderator
Quite. I've moved the relevant posts to EdGuild. I hope everything still makes sense here.
Zoom, Extra Light, Ctrl+F. Very good!
The only question I have is who will be the first author to release a new mission with this new patch and all of its goodies, can't wait to see how this will improve FMs
I know Le Corbeau and friends probably don't take any requests, but is it possible to do something about the movies now? We have missions with HD textures and we still have to make cinematics in 640x480. It would be great to have higher internal resolution for movies as well. Just doubling the resolution () will be a substantial change, and it will affect making briefings in a good way. For example, we won't have to use gigantic fonts

No, you don't. The Codex of Drymia has a briefing movie with
resolution, which plays even with NewDark v1.22.

Be careful with these high resolutions. The movie playing facility in NewDark is far less powerful than what was used with pre-NewDark Thief. For example, the old DEATH.AVI movie (the Skull-and-Crossbones thing coming up when Garrett bites the dust once gain), which has only a 320x200 resolution, often won't play smoothly on my ancient Athlon-900 machine with NewDark. With Thief 2 v1.18, even a prehistoric Pentium-II machine could do that!
Now for something else. There's a small bug in NewDark v1.23. When a mission uses custom loading screens, these are not always displayed correctly in v1.23. Sensut's "Bathory campaign" and "Dracula reloaded campaign" suffer from this, as well as the Necro Age version of T2X. In the "CCR Campaign", however, things still look OK. Not a serious issue, but it would be nice if that could be fixed for v1.24.
Meanwhile, if anyone hasn't got the news yet: New
versions are out already, allowing anyone to easily update to v1.23. (Yes, Tafferpatcher 2.0.15 indeed installs NewDark v1.23, not 1.22 as the first post there currently states.)
I have been very skeptical concerning NewDark when it came out some years ago, but this has changed. Whoever is behind our mysterious Le Corbeau apparently does not vanish in the pitfalls which have eaten up several Open Source projects. So far, NewDark has become far better than I anticipated first, and I'm just writing from a player's perspective.
The Codex of Drymia has a briefing movie with

I have movies for an FM in
resolution, but it doesn't matter, since the internal rendering engine scales it back to 640x480.

That's absolutely not true. New codecs in NewDark movies allow use of H.264 compression, you can even use formats like .bik, as long as you rename it to .avi for the final movie. You have tons of better options in terms of quality vs compression over old and buggy Indeo codec. Backwards compatibility with Pentium II machines is really not an issue these days.

Sorry, I did not see that before, for I had commented-out the "crop_movies" line in the cam_ext.cfg on my notebook, and didn't notice the black bars on the left and right. But indeed, once I activate "crop_movies" again, the upper part of the movie in "The Drymian Codex" is cut off. Only 720x480 movies (like in the "Cataclysmic Revelations campaign") still work.
Concerning whether or not the old movie playing facility of Thief is more powerful than the one in NewDark...
New codecs in NewDark movies allow use of H.264 compression, you can even use formats like .bik, as long as you rename it to .avi for the final movie. You have tons of better options in terms of quality vs compression over old and buggy Indeo codec.
I'd rather call that flexibility (and indeed, NewDark's "movie facility" is more flexible by being able to handle several movie formats which Thief 2 v1.18 could not), but let's not fight over words. What I really wanted to say is that you need a more powerful machine to play one and the same movie with NewDark when compared with Thief 2 v1.18; the prehistoric Pentium-II machine was just an example to show how much less CPU horsepower was needed back then to play a standard Thief movie. What if higher resolutions choke ffmpeg (or whatever plays the movies in NewDark), and we're seeing only slideshows?
I don't want to stop people from making movies with better resolution, but to be careful. Every time you double the resolution along both axis, the computer has to handle four times more data per second. If the price for a better resolution would be that movies regularly stutter on machines which just are not the newest and best ones on the market, maybe a lot of players would not want to pay that price anymore.
During the last months, several people weren't happy with the performance of some newer missions on their machines, and I thought it could be a good idea to try not to let history repeat itself with movies. Prepare your movie, check whether it still plays with a decent machine (and I neither consider that Pentium-II nor the ancient Athlon I mentioned as "decent" anymore), and if it does - fine. If it does not play smoothly, maybe a change of the codec would help.
Of course, I do now realize that in order to check this out, NewDark would have to be able to use movies with larger resolution first. As I said, I did not notice these limits before.
I agree that you can never be too careful, but let's get some perspective here
People are already watching HD clips on YT or Vimeo using laptops and desktops that are several years old. And those movies use bitrate from 5,000 to even 20,000 kbit/s (those are actual Vimeo recommendations). On my HDD I have a 12 FPS
mp4 intro movie with panning screenshots, and it's as low as 1000 kbit/s. Seriously, the only device where this movie played a bit sluggish was my 2-year-old LG smartphone, and it was only because I forgot to turn on the hardware decoding :]
