After this thing i start to work on the First Thief2x FM that will be the 7.Part of the Saga where Zaia returns. :)
Terra, I still have all my original source files from T2X. When you get ready if you need any changes to the Zaya arm models or HUD I'm happy to help out.
As for me, my T1 contest mission is in the mid stages of beta. After that I will return to my Thief 2 projects. Which include: A small fun mission set in 1920s prohibition era America. A large, near total-conversion mission set a few years after Thief 2, and I am also doing a bunch of custom resources for gamophyte's horror mission.

For a long time there was a misunderstanding about the use of T2X resources, but about 4 or 5 years ago fett came on here and gave express permission for us to use resources from T2X freely. Also, the original restriction they placed on its use was intended to encourage us to make T2X universe missions, which is exactly what it sounds like Terra is doing anyway. I'm looking forward to seeing this project!
That's before I even started lurking here, so I didn't know. That's awesome, though! Since Wynne made an appearance not too long ago I wonder if she'd be interested in such a project.

I see that recently very few missions are being realesed on all platforms. I wonder how many missions are in development right now? Dates don't matter. I know about upcoming missions thread, but maybe there is something abandoned and not updated. And it would be great if every author could confirm this.
I'm currently learning the Thief 3 (III) Editor "T3Ed".
My mission(s) will be released for this game. I'll update (in Thief Fan Missions) with screenshots and other tidbits of information as it's coming along.
I did want to ask... do people prefer missions made with T3Ed, Dark Radiant (for The Dark Mod) or DromEd (for either The Dark Project or The Metal Age)?
Compatibility wise, I wish to make it as easy as possible for people to enjoy.

In that case, T3Ed is probably the worst choice. I'd go with the good old DromEd.

It seems before NewDark, interest in Dromed was going down, probably because of the engine limitations. Since then, there was a revived interest in Dromed.
My vote is Dromed for either TDP or TMA (although I do prefer TDP/TG).

I was wondering about this, very glad to hear it.

Still alive (just), and still occasionally working on missions when I have time/energy. Not given up on them yet!

And yet another I wonder about, and happy to hear it. I love looking back in "What are you working on..." thread at your stuff. That background, that fog, that library, that street light, that split staircase.

It's the same for me. I don't set any time limits, but I try to do a little every 1-3 days or so. My FM (working title: "Faux Karras") might be finished in the next two years. It's a hypothetical story about the origins of Karras. I just hope that such stories are accepted and do not directly conflict with the Thief world of LGS. When I eventually have the level beta-tested, I'll probably ask for advice in regards to whether the title needs to be more subtle. I definitely don't want to abandon the FM, but may ask for codevelopment from another author or beta testers.
This FM has an envisioned sequel, one of epic proportions, and would really expand the mythology of Thief games. Since the effort may be too much for my own undertaking, I wonder if authors could simply submit abandoned plots instead of missions?
Lately I've learned a lot by alternating between Blender and Anim8or, working with more complex objects I downloaded from websites offering free objects, splitting them up into smaller objects in order to get them into DromEd.
