How to launch the non-debug build of the game directly from the editor
by Mandrake
If you run your map from the editor by clicking the Joystick icon, T3ed runs it in the debug build of the game that gives rather low frame rates, and no sound in full screen.
I've found an easy way to make use of the Build -> Send to XBox menu option, which currently does nothing useful.
Go to your \Thief3Edit\System directory, and create a batch file called xbreboot.bat and in the file place one line:
T3MainReleaseVersion.exe AutoPlay
And save.
Now when you want to test a map, click Build All as normal, and you have a choice of clicking the Joystick icon to run it in the debug build (which is slow with no sound in fullscreen, sometimes crashes, but has a debug console) or simply go to:
Build -> Send To Xbox to launch the normal version of the game
(Good if you're trying to evaluate framerate performance, or hear what AIs are saying...)
This way there is no need to Build All, run the debug version of the game with the Joystick icon, then exit, then run the normal version from a desktop shortcut, which is what I was previously doing...
