Hello. First time on here. I bought Thief only to discover it doesn't seem to be totally compatible with Intel and unfortunately there is no support from the developers as my HD Graphics 4000 doesn't meet their "minimum requirements" they said. My only issues with the game are certainly frame rate a bit, all normal settings are good enough on 720 res. Doesn't look great though but playable. My biggest issues are the textures generally look awful and sometimes flash/disappear completely and become black. Or become extremely low res. I've done all the updates for all my drivers and tried the different patch versions of the game. Nothing worked and then I find this beta from Intel! YAY! I thought. but nope didn't help anything, some areas are worse. The only area that is fixed with the flashy disappearing textures is the title/menu options screen. looks perfect there. In-game though? Nope. I don't know if the issues is a driver issue or not. I don't know if you guys cane help with this at all. I tried the game developers and they said get a new gpu, or we can refund you for the game. Anyways, I hope my feed back helps. Not sure if my cpu is an issue as I didn't see it on the list, but it installed fine and so far it seems the same as before in all regards.
I have
windows 8.1 64-bit
Intel Core i3-3110M CPU @ 2.4GHz
Intel HD Graphics 4000
