I am attempting to play Thief Gold using Wineskin on my mac. I have downloaded the latest setup and patch files.

I have installed setup_thief_gold_2.0.0.46.exe, and the game is able to run.
However, when I attempt to install patch_thief_gold_2.0.3.49 I get an error message. Here is the patch log:

Thief GOLD patch log
Incorrect version of: C:\GOG Games\Thief GOLD\cam.cfg
Incorrect version of: C:\GOG Games\Thief GOLD\!NewDark_note.txt
Incorrect version of: C:\GOG Games\Thief GOLD\miss16.mis.dml
Incorrect version of: C:\GOG Games\Thief GOLD\miss3.mis.dml
File not found (for copying): C:\GOG Games\Thief GOLD\backup\THIEF.EXE
File not found (for copying): C:\GOG Games\Thief GOLD\THIEF_ND.EXE

Regarding the last two lines of the patch log, the file THIEF.EXE does not currently exist inside "C:\GOG Games\Thief GOLD\backup\", there are actually two folders here: ddfix and no_ddfix. The THIEF.EXE is inside both of these two subfolders. So the patch seems to be looking in the wrong location? Furthermore, currently there is no THIEF_ND.EXE in C:\GOG Games\Thief GOLD\, I only have a THIEF.EXE file located there.

Any help would be appreciated, I am very new to Wineskin and Windows games.

Hey 01kipper, I think you're fine. It looks like you had successfully applied the patch and tried to do so a second time.
\backup\THIEF.EXE and THIEF_ND.EXE are only present in the unpatched version and are deleted by the patch. Further \backup\ddfix and \backup\no_ddfix as well as \Thief GOLD\THIEF.EXE don't exist before, but are added by the patch. "Incorrect version" probably just means it's already the patched version.

Hmmmm, that is possible. When I first tried to install the patch I got a slightly different error message (something about unable to locate the .exe file, unfortunately I didn't save the details). So I tried to run the patch again and got the error I posted above. I guess it's installed after all.

Thanks DeMignon, you're always very helpful around the game sub-forums and it's very much appreciated!
you could also patch up manually.

Thanks, I just patched it manually, to be on the safe side :).
