Great job Dopeman, thanks so much.

IceMaster (2007-04-29)

Explain what you did to the videos exactly. I don't want to download this and burn it and find out the videos have been crapped. I would gladly take the extra download time to have a quality copy.

maverick2112 (2007-04-30)

hi i'm a n00b just to get that out of the way but hey you've got to start somewhere right?
i unzipped the files and everything fine but when i try to install to same location as i have placed the game (like it says) i get an error message telling me "unable to create folder"..... and one time when i did get it to work the t3.exe file came up with a shit ton of errors when i tried to open it.... so yeah what the hell am i doing wrong? if anyone can help me out that would be great

henubis (2007-04-30)

ALEX_SLIPKNOT (2007-05-04)

thanks so much 420DOPEMAN you are great!

pokersucs (2007-05-10)

I must have screwed this install up somehow. I extracted to my X/games directory Deadly Shadows and then started the setup.exe and directed the install to this same directory. Then I start up the ds.exe in the system directory and nothing happens ?

valor2003 (2007-05-20)

Hey everyone. I'm no noob when it comes to cracked games. Though I've never dl'ed any of dopemans releases (you rock dude, seriously you are a great asset to the community). When I get this working, and I will, I'll post another comment on how I got it working. Prolly in 3 hours.

Faero (2007-05-30)

I am a complete NOOB. I now nothing of unrar and stuff like that. When I open the file to thief it asks me to select program from a list or use web to find appropriate program. Somebody plz help me with this I really want to play this I've only played it on XBOX I know I am a complete noob I just started learning to download the torrents yesterday. I am pretty sure I need a specific program to run the game but I dont know what it is.

Faero (2007-05-30)

I found out what winrar is but, I extract the file and everything but, when I install it then go to where its installed all that is there now is Uninst and
setup (clg file) whatever that means. Plz help.

Faero (2007-05-30)

Plz somebody give me a walk through. I am very noob to this. Plz. If it helps this is the directory I used
C:\Documents and
Settings\Jordan\Desktop\Games\Thief - Deadly Shadows\System
Should I uise something else??? I first put the file in the Games folder and I extracted it to there as well.
???

alexjl (2007-05-30)

I have unpacked the game, and installed it in the system folder. and when i press the game icons nothing happends...
Anyone know whats wrong?

Faero (2007-05-31)

SePepaStrotade (2007-06-07)

PS: This game sucks!

noxion (2007-06-09)

the intromovie goes in a loop when i start the game so i dont know what to do

Skinkemann (2007-06-10)

Did you remove some cutscenes, or did you simply change the quality?

ScurvyBastard (2007-06-11)

This is a great game, I'm almost finished.
Followed Dopeman's directions, worked fine.

janz_ (2007-06-15)

after the intro is finished it comes up again and it keeps on going whats the problem??

Nice quote, had to *BUMP* it..
Got a few items on my list, this is now added.. Loved the first game, looking forward to this.
BTW, anyone got the first Thief? Then please upload it..

If somebody could maybe know whats wrong...SO TELL IT!!! I want so much to play this!

GTTG (2007-07-13)

Hey, I must give dopeman some creed here cause it's not many who instructs when they uploading something!Good work man!

totoever (2007-07-14)

now suddenly it starts.
A black screen comes up, but so it comes up an error report. I HATE ERROR REPORTS!!!
Could this never work!?

Zarfan (2007-07-21)

Thanx for this Dopeman ^^.
Regarding questions about earlier versions of Thief; they are not "automatically" workable under neither Win XP or Vista. I'm no expert on this, but if someone would have time to rip and get it to work.. MAAN... i'd be a happy g33k.
Zarf.

Jahnow (2007-07-22)

Dopeman, ur such a genious. You are making it alot easier for us that is downloading games, thanks alot:)

Thanks Dopeman your work is appreciated.

WampireH (2007-08-29)

plz, seed folks

zarlok (2007-09-20)

I can't fucking install in the same place the original files downloaded into. WTF.

zarlok (2007-09-20)

Downloaded, unrar'ed everything in one folder, saw the stupid instructions. Copied the entire contents to a new folder in program files with the generic "thief whatever" that the game tries to install under. Installed. Nothing. Unistalled everything. Changed the fucking stupid file name so it didn't have any stupid fucking brackets in it and installed directly into the game download location that i originally unzipped to. Same shit. Nothing.

zarlok (2007-09-20)

Unless you are on a god damn dialup, and even then maybe not, you are better off getting a non-fucked up version of the game. This is just a cluster fucked pile of bullshit.

I have the same problem, Garret moves on his own. I don't have a joystick, just a USB keyboard. It doesn't have any other problems with other games.

cloudmckane (2007-11-08)

Yo! Is this game lagging for anyone else? It shouldn't be doing i for me since I'm on a 2.8GHz CPU and 2048MB RAM with a 256MB graphics card with 500/1000Mhz core/memory clock. Anything that I could have been doing wrong while installing or is there a file that's corrupted?

ginger_ninjas4321 (2008-02-07)

hey, just finished d/l the game. will seed for a while! however, when I go to unrar i get an error message that says "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged"! Any suggestions what to do?

bnzabuza (2008-02-12)

THE RESOLUTION!! ---->
when i "followed" the instructions and clicked the "t3.exe" file nothing happenedm the same thing for u guys, but then i read another answer from another website from dopeman, something and i did like this:
Remove all the extractions from the theif zip folder, so that u only have the map exactly like u downloaded it and no other "thief" files.
When u have done that u place the whole thief folder u downloaded in C: not in programs or downloads, just in C: the folder that the "program folder" is in.
then u right-click on the thief zip file and press "Extract here" so there won't be a double folder for example when u open the thief folder u extracted, it comes up another thief folder in that and u must click it again to get the folder up with "system" "content" etc. so make sure u only have to click up ONE folder to get it all open
then u press setup and and choose the path.
If u followed my instructions the path should be "C:\Thief - Deadly Shadows".
So really make sure that if u open up "Thief - Deadly Shadows" in C: then the system and content and setup folders appears right away, and make sure u don't have to click another thief folder in that one.
so just install the game into the folder that the system and content folders is.
when u have installed it it should look like this when u open "C:\Thief - Deadly Shadows"
CONTENT -folder
System -folder
readme.rtf
setup.clg
Setup.exe
Uninst.exe
user.ini
If it's like that u have done the right thing.
Now u press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to get the task manager up, then press "Processes" and close all the "t3" processes there such as; t3.exe T3Main and also Ion Launcher.exe
When u have done that ur ready to go, just press the "t3.exe" file in SYSTEM and then u can play it fine :P like me
(this guide was originally from dopeman, i just rewrote it in my own way here at piratebay since it helped me)
THX SO MUCH DOPIE!!!

knives167 (2008-02-24)

ok so what did you do to the videos? when i start the game it plays the intro over and over and over, when i hit esc. it switches to the menu for a a second or two and then replays it again...any ideas on how to fix this?

joehandsome (2008-03-07)

Hey dopeman, i love your torrents! They always work! :D anyways, i got it to work and i accedentally hit the windows button and it kinda quit:S when i tried opening it again it didnt work, so i trashed the folder and decided to unrar it again:P here comes the tricky part: You know how you have to install it, well i ran setup.exe and it stood that i had a previously installed version, and it asked me if i wanted to uninstall the old version, i clicked "yes". Nothing happened! so any help would be much appreciated:D thx;)

joehandsome (2008-03-07)

so i cant run setup.exe... and i cannot fint where i've installed the previous one beacause i deleted the folder?!, HELP:P

janz_ (2008-03-08)

The intro goes in a loop it never stops... how do i fix that??
All u guys that gets the error "cant create a new folder" You have to extract the game outside the dopeman folder. because the folders name contains "[]" symbols and u cant install it in a folder wich contains those symbols.

joehandsome (2008-03-08)

Hey janz
--hope this helps;)
Known Issue:
When trying to play Thief Deadly Shadows, the intro movie constantly loops and the game will not start.
Resolution:
It is very likely that you have a Dual Core processor, such as an AMD Athlon 64 X2 or an Intel Pentium "D" which is the cause of the problem.
The solution is to set Thief III to use only one core.
After launching Thief Deadly Shadows:
1. Press CTRL + ALT + Esc to bring up the task manager.
2. Select the Processes tab.
3. Right clicking each of the Thief III- related processes (T3Main.exe, T3.exe).
4. Select Set Affinity.
5. Uncheck one of the CPUs.
6. Close the Task Manager.
7. Press ALT + TAB to get back to the game.

joehandsome (2008-03-08)

now i want some help:P

agulas (2008-03-23)

doesnt work - forget it

Destroy850 (2008-05-16)

dopeman.
i love you.
your probably
tightest mother fucker on the planet.
thank you.

bill857 (2008-05-20)

seriously, what does "I did resample the amount of vids found in game" mean? did he decease the quality of each vid or reduce the number of vids? or did he transfer them to DVIX or something so that they'd take up less space without reduced quality?

riyexon (2008-06-02)

u followed ur instructions on the miniova forums but when i right click the rar file and do extract here it double unrars and i dont know how to fix that if u could offer any advice it would be great thanks

kimfearn1961 (2008-06-12)

this torent need bullshitt torrent registration to dload fast tried all night got 44mb on 160Kbps connection.very crappy!!!!!!!AND NOBODY TELL ME TO GO AND BUY IT CAUSE WE SHOULDNT HAVE TO PAY FOR ENTERTAINMENT IN THIS DAY AND AGE.

 Vilaemail (2008-06-13)

First of all there are 70 seeders so torrent is OK, your computer is like shit or it ain't properly configured [firewall etc.]. Second of all is that your connection is [i'll say] slow, so 160kbps = 15KB/s aprox. 15*60*60*12 [12hrs] = 648000 = 633 MB aprox. So in 15-24hrs this schould be dl-ed. And third is that u schouldn't shout and insult some1, expecialy not dopeman - if some torrents work then that are his. No spam, virus, complicated installation. So say thanks!

bolbi123456 (2008-06-13)

hey, ive installed the game and overwritten with the crack, but when i start the game, the video never stops playing
once the video finishes playing, it starts the vid again and it never ends. theres no way to cancel it or your comp becomes unresponsive.
any ideas anyone??

dirkzen (2008-06-14)

Couldn't get this to run on vista. Tried to switch compatability, but... meh. Program just hangs.
Wasn't meant to be.
Guess I could always get it for xbox again...

Kinjid (2008-06-29)

hey thanks for the game! But i'm to lazy to look but do you have the first one?

verrin (2008-07-03)

If you have Windows Vista, I'd suggest avoiding dopeman's version. Even if you install the game correctly, there are still many issues which haven't been resolved. There are definitely more stable versions available.

Zimbibwe (2008-07-06)

Hey guys
Unfortunately i have an error that i have searched these comments to find but no one has the same. During the unzip with Winrar a Winrar diagnostic popup appears and states: D:\Bitlord Downloads\[PC] Thief - Deadly Shadows [RIP] [dopeman]\Thief - Deadly Shadows.7z: Error - operation failed
I have tried to unzip the file to D:\ & i have tried to unzip to many other locations. I know this must be an error from my end but i dont know if it is an error with a corrupt file, my computer or WinRar. If anyone has any tips or fixes please can you help me, thanks :)

Zimbibwe (2008-07-06)

I forgot something, during the Unzip it is at 30%, during a file called 'SchemaMetafile_DVD1.csc that the diagnostic error popup appears, hope that helps, to understand the problem, if it is corrupted then plz can someone direct me where to get the file, i dont really want to DL the whole game again.

Zimbibwe (2008-07-08)

Wooh! ok nvm it worked... for some reason it would only let me unzip to C: so i just unzipped to the already pre-determined file that it recommended. I dont have space there to keep so ill just cut it to D:... It was the sound files that gave me the problems.
Anyway dope u rock :) thanks, looking thru the rest of ur uploaded and definately more i want

shadowstriker (2008-08-09)

hey drikzen i dont think it has anything too do with the vista cuz i,ve got the demo on my vista so my guess is that it is something else that prevent you playing it on your comp

tikkig0d (2008-08-09)

ok try this, sometimes i get my 7z erros out of the middle of nowhere also.. instead of opening it from the file actually open up the 7z proggy instead and open the zip from there. at least that worked for me, try it out.

ekinpot (2008-08-14)

-_- why is it that people says: you rock.. why rock man !!! like dopeman you rock. why not DopeMan you hip-hop ! ^^ why not hiphop ! why not DopeMan you R&B, you soul, you Blues ! damn i am so frustated ! lol :P

tmackb (2008-08-19)

haha, wat a joke kimfearn is....thanks dopeman for another quality upload

Wormicle (2008-08-19)

ekinpot: Because hip-hop is fucking stupid o O

Leodegrance (2008-09-01)

I have the same problem as bolbi123456, the video keeps playing on and on, any ideas?

iamreadyforanything2009 (2008-09-02)

@Leodegrance and bolbi123456-
Update your video drivers and install the Dopemans Must have for Gaming DirectX off this site...
Hope thuis helps!!!;)

kummi90 (2008-09-26)

PLEASE HELP!!!
I have complete download, but when i try to install using the setup file, it only installs like very few MB taking one second, and then i cannot play.. ive tried to move the install path into the main folder: "Thief - Deadly Shadows" where the CONTENT, System, readme.rtf, user.ini, and Setup.exe files are, but then it says: "Error.... Unable to create folder ...."
WHAT AM I DOING WRONG??
Thanks!

Hedbrant (2008-10-13)

pretty nice speed. 1 mb/s.
I have 50 mb so I will seed for a while

Speakup (2008-10-14)

Thanks for great torrrent, Dope! I just got one problem though, which is the same as a few other guys here have mentioned; When I start the game the intro film just keeps looping. I've tried to press Esc and in other ways tried to skip the vid but all that happens is that it comes very briefly to the menu and then the vid starts over again.
Im not sure I wanna try "Ctrl+Alt+Esc" thing, since that seems to cause even more trouble.. I've also downloaded "DirectX 9 [NOV.2007] MUST HAVE TO GAME [dopeman] " and installed, which didn't change nothing.
SO, any suggestions? Thanks in advance

xiIix (2008-10-19)

Uhm....
Remove the video file? DUH!

Erick345 (2008-11-25)

THIS GAME FUCKING RULES, I LOVE THE THIEF SERIES!!!!

dksone (2009-01-13)

Hey
For those who have the intro loop problem, this is because the game isn't compatible with dual core cpu. You have to set the game to use only one core. There is many way to do that. You can start the game, alt-tab it to go back to desktop, then run the task manager, right click on "t3main.exe" -> set affinity. Or you can start the game in command line. Open notepad, copy/paste "start /affinity 1 t3.exe" (without the quote) into it, then save it with .bat extension (not .txt!!!), in the Thief - Deadly Shadows\System folder. And run the game by double clickin the file you just create.
Anyway, thanks dopeman for this great game :)

THE RESOLUTION!! ---->
when i "followed" the instructions and clicked the "t3.exe" file nothing happenedm the same thing for u guys, but then i read another answer from another website from dopeman, something and i did like this:
Remove all the extractions from the theif zip folder, so that u only have the map exactly like u downloaded it and no other "thief" files.
When u have done that u place the whole thief folder u downloaded in C: not in programs or downloads, just in C: the folder that the "program folder" is in.
then u right-click on the thief zip file and press "Extract here" so there won't be a double folder for example when u open the thief folder u extracted, it comes up another thief folder in that and u must click it again to get the folder up with "system" "content" etc. so make sure u only have to click up ONE folder to get it all open
then u press setup and and choose the path.
If u followed my instructions the path should be "C:\Thief - Deadly Shadows".
So really make sure that if u open up "Thief - Deadly Shadows" in C: then the system and content and setup folders appears right away, and make sure u don't have to click another thief folder in that one.
so just install the game into the folder that the system and content folders is.
when u have installed it it should look like this when u open "C:\Thief - Deadly Shadows"
CONTENT -folder
System -folder
readme.rtf
setup.clg
Setup.exe
Uninst.exe
user.ini
If it's like that u have done the right thing.
Now u press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to get the task manager up, then press "Processes" and close all the "t3" processes there such as; t3.exe T3Main and also Ion Launcher.exe
When u have done that ur ready to go, just press the "t3.exe" file in SYSTEM and then u can play it fine :P like me
(this guide was originally from dopeman, i just rewrote it in my own way here at piratebay since it helped me)
THX SO MUCH DOPIE!!!
This works for and i'm using Vista.
Thanks bnzabuza, your guide was very helpful.
Thanks dopeman for the torrent, you never fail to please.

warlic97 (2009-02-16)

nice game, d'led in under an hour, thx seeders, and for everyone who complains that it doesn't work, just look at bnzabuza's comment, it worked for me, and if it still doesn't work, you probably did something wrong

Kholdaxe (2009-03-02)

dude this sucks....why not just put disk image files? yours is the only good thief torrent but i cant burn to disk and it dosent work.....i'd rather sit through a long installation than download this shit...fuck you

realityexplorations (2009-03-23)

gear thanks for upload , all works fine if you install exactly as said

wiseguy_101 (2009-03-30)

I noted that you said: "I did resample the amount of vids found in game."
However, I don't understand what you mean, could anyone tell me whether or not the cutscenes and other videos are included in this download.
Thank you in advance.

zarcain (2009-04-13)

I'd also like to know if the cutscenes are still in good quality.
I once downloaded Painkiller from you, that was a mistake.
and I love how harshly you reply when someone asks whether or not the cutscenes are good quality... We're sorry we enjoy quality, we can't help it.

MissRiv (2009-04-29)

This works great

If you are unable to get it to run (the exe does nothing, follow these directions. (These are not mine, this is a copy and paste of something on page 4)

AlastairWAT (2010-05-30)

AlexRussel (2010-11-24)

Nice DOPE MAN You Are So Fucking Awesome!
All Ur Torrents Works Very Well!
Keep Up The Good Work Bro!

zippyderppyguy (2010-11-25)

Dopeman, you fucking rock :) I really wish the rest of the game rippers would put this kind of effort into their uploads.
Not everyone can run a rip game and they all act like every person out there can. I mean, I have no issue with using daemon etc, but no-install is just awesome lol

jaysur19 (2010-12-31)

everything works fine except the audio
Any one have a fix?

BeatUpTorrent (2011-03-11)

Dopeman's RIP's always worked for me. Though, I'm having issues running this i tried using all executers but nothing.
I play T3Main but theres no action.??

bbaabar (2011-03-21)

when i click new game, the game quits and ask me to send error report.
whats the solution?

-when you have finish all the download-
1. Open the folder. (so far so good)
2. Right click on Thief Deadly Shadows compressed files, click Extract Here.
3. Now you have a cool folder named.. Thief - Deadly Shadows , Right click on the folder and select "Cut".
4. Now go to C:\Program Files , Right click and select "Paste".
5. Open the newly added folder run the setup and install it in the folder you added to Program Files.
6. Now still within Thief - Deadly Shadows open the System folder, scroll down abit and you'll find.. t3 (not t3 main, only t3) which will be your game launcher.

Dude,I click ' t3 ' and nothing happens.. =(
Everything seemed fine but when I click t3 to launch the game nothing appears.

ssjbomb (2011-12-30)

best game ever thanks

dundun12 (2012-03-25)

Yeah I have the same problem. I did everything right but when I click on t3 it shows like it's about to launch the game but it doesn't, nothing happens at all. Is there any solution to this problem? I'm pretty sure I installed it correctly. I did all the steps exactly how SimpleandFun stated and the game still doesn't work.
