Thief: Deadly Shadows Message Board  

is there any other type of cheat codes for this game to play as i am not comfortable and also not to smart when it comes to codes in the directory

if you go to my BLOG you will find a detailed explanation of how to edit a few things in the game - read it first and if you have questions I'll try to help.

I see no blog pages on your profile..

sorry, I took them all down, the management didn't like my style. I'll see if I kept that one anywhere, and post it back up. They will not put it up under cheats or hints for some reason.

I could not find a copy of my original post, or of the blog that described things in more detail, but if you have the Steam version, you can go to the System files, and about midway thru the file you will find where it says [Difficulty].

Below I copy/pasted the first edit that I did of that part of the file, (always make backups of originals... so you can revert if things go bad. I keep copies of the incremental cheats as well with a specific description).

The cheats below will make your game WHILE IN QUEST, much easier. Most of the time if you are careful you will not be noticed and you can go about as you please, stealing whatever you want. Before you edit your file, just look at the numbers below in my edit, and compare them to the numbers in your file and you will see which way to go to make things easier or harder.

Here's the location of the file on my computer:

C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\common\thief deadly shadows\System

This is the part of the file with pretty extreme cheats:

This only work's for 1 level, all goes back to been seen and been heard when next level is loaded
