This is a cool video. But it makes me so sad that a cool independent gaming company that gave us one of the best video games ever, Thief, is no long in business.
Farewell Looking Glass Studios. I even loved the company intro to the Thief series when it was just the company logo and the haunted, relaxing sound of wind chimes. You don't know what you've got till it's gone.
It's an official Easter Egg with the LGS guys screwin' around, making fun of a day at the office. It's not supposed to be better or worse. That has nothing to do with it.
At first, I thought this was some kind of hoax, so I downloaded the demo, renamed the snd.crf file to snd.zip, extracted the zip folder, searched the guard folders and found the audio files. They are stored separately in a folder called english in each of the 3 guard folders. You should submit this egg to eeggs website and include a link to this video as proof. Great catch! Well worth 5 stars.
It says in the description. You need to copy a file from the Thief 2 demo and put it into the original Thief (or Gold version) directory. Make sure to backup the file that you are overwritting though.

You just need a copy of Thief 1. Shouldn't matter which version.
I'm not sure how I found it, I remember reading about it ages ago and tried it.

I reeeally hope they get the upcoming Thief 4 right.

@Satchel334 yep. If I had been old enough and a millionaire, I would have donated to LG Studios to help them get out of debt.
What a shame. So much trash out there that's never going away. But then there's something GOOD for once and what happens.... it fades away. :-/
In a fair world they would be rich.
Sad. R.I.P. Looking Glass Studios.
