I've recently dusted out an old laptop and installed Linux Mint 17.2 to try to play Thief 2 under Wine Staging 1.7.50 using PlayOnLinux. I can get into the menu screen, but when I try to get into the game, it crashes immediately after it completes loading a level.

Here's the debug log from an attempt to run the game:

I fear that the problem is simply the integrated Intel 945GM graphics on this machine, but the debug log doesn't seem very informative on that.

I'm assuming Mint already installed Intel graphics drivers
Are you using the 64-bit version of Mint?
If yes, you might want to install the 32-bit libraries:

  1. Open Synaptics Package Manager
  2. Search for:  ia32-libs
  3. Mark for installation
  4. Apply

Are you using the PlayOnLinux script that installs the GOG version of Theif 2?

It's a laptop with 32-bit Mint. I copied my Steam version of the game with NewDark installed; which is probably just about the same as the GoG version with all patches.

 

I tried Wine 1.6.2 and it worked this time. I found that the last working version (at least for me, on this hardware) was Wine 1.7.1. Only problem is, none of the in-game text (item labels, tutorial prompts etc) shows up, unless I change display mode to backbuffer, which makes them show up but cause the whole screen to black out whenever there is any in-game text visible.

I've seen the backbuffer problem do that in games as well.
Try installing corefonts, tahoma and registered fonts packages in PlayOnLinux.
Also try newer versions of Wine like Wine 1.7.51-staging

All versions of Wine after 1.7.1, staging included, crash.

Did you mess with Backbuffer using those newer versions of Wine?

Try re-installing from scratch and make sure to install packages:

  • corefonts
  • d3dx9
  • tahoma
