Does anyone know of a mod or mods for original Thief that would do the following.
1) Bring female enemy AI into T1? Maybe a certain number of the generic male guards or Hammerites in a mission would be replaced by female guards or mechanists from T2?
(Obviously in the latter case they would be re-skinned/coloured to convert them into female Hammers, and have some of their Mechanist-specific lines removed.)
2) Replace some of the T1 naked zombies with some of the T2 clothed zombies? I think I find the clothed version slightly scarier, and also it would add variety in an undead T1 mission if there was a mix of zombie types.
Has anyone ever heard of a mod that does either?

I created a Hammerite Mission Development Kit that includes female Hammers plus a voice schema which removes the Mechanist-specific lines from the female Mech voice. But it would be on someone else to use that to modify T1 missions to add them in, I don't think you could make a mod which did it without modifying the actual missions. There are also a ton of alternative zombie meshes and skins out there, and also the T3 zombie voice set has been ported back, but again it would require modifying the OMs to mix them in.

Yes I suppose, in the hammer/guard case to only remove some of the generic males would require some way to ID the specific males and distinguish them from the others.
Similar in the zombie case. But presumably it wouldn't be that difficult to simply replace ALL of the grey zombies with say all of the male clothed zombies?
Might that not just require replacing a skin texture?

Sure, changing all the zombies to a clothed version would be pretty simple. And changing all instances of one of the specific male Hammer types to female would also be pretty trivial I guess.
