A word of advice regarding custom materials:
It requires skill to create an original mission that still breaths the spirit of Thief. A large mix of all kinds of custom objects and textures from various authors don't make your Fan Mission per se better. The end result often looks messy, more like a mix of styles then having an own identity, and may lack the charm of Looking Glass' original missions.
The T1/2 stock resources are perfectly suited most of time and should be your first focus (unless you want a level not situated in the thief universe).
When stock resources don't provide what you're looking for, or don't fit for what you're planning to create, you can always turn to custom resources. But always use them wisely and go for quality (read: suitability) above quantity.
Can't find what you're looking for here? Go to Sxerks' Custom Resources database for searching by Author and Type: (
