3D Vision fix for Thief Gold. Tested with the GOG version.
Fixed
- Fixed "layer" was making 3D broken at high convergence levels.
- Stars and moon at proper depth if you use the HD mod.
- Improved Nvidia laser crosshair, but it's still imperfect. Remember that you can disable it with ctrl+F12 (default hotkey).
Remaining issues
- Some ingame HUD text is only visible with one eye, but it's readable.
Installation
- Use the latest TFix.
- I recommend installing the HD texture mod afterwards. This fix puts the stars and moon at full depth while not breaking other elements.
- IMPORTANT: open "cam_ext.cfg" and comment the "use_d3d_display" line. If you don't do this, the game will be flat and running in DX9. Configure the rest of options to your taste.
- Download this file and extract its contents in the "Thief Gold" folder, where "THIEF.EXE" is.
- Download the latest dgVoodoo 2 release or WIP version here: http://dege.freeweb.hu/dgVoodoo2/dgVoodoo2.html
- From inside its "MS" folder, copy "D3D8.dll", "D3DImm.dll" and "DDraw.dll" into the game folder. The GOG release of this game comes with a "ddraw.dll" that makes the game DX9, so rename it to something else if you don't want to lose it.
- Open "dgVoodooCpl.exe" and configure it like this, for example, tuning the resolution and some other settings to your liking:
- Boot the game and accept the profile changes (it will ask for admin rights).
- F1: convergence presets .
- Right mouse button: hold it for almost a second to trigger a temporal low convergence preset. Useful for when you want to use the mouse.
