I don't think that anybody else is working on the unfinished Thief 2 Gold missions, and I'm quite skeptical that another one based on Thief 2 Gold will be released.
Although I consider myself a true Thief fan, certain members of the community take one step too far. They think that the unfinished Thief 2 Gold missions should stay untouched and unblemished, OR if anybody dares working on them, they should imitate exactly what LGS intended to do.
Which is simply impossible. Plus, people want to have some creative freedom. For the purpose of making this FM I decided to use some custom textures and write a new story. What I did wasn't appreciated.
Ah I see. I don´t think "wasn´t appreciated" is quite correct. I did read the forum abit and while there was lots of critism, there were/are also several people who appreciated the effort and love playing it.
I get where people are coming from when they say the thief 2 gold missions are holy and shouldn´t be "stained" from custommakers, but honestly that´s just bullshit. Look at now! We have 2020 and already back then we knew that we will never get to see the thief 2 gold missions. So people should take from it what they can and make new awesome fanmissions with the material.
Of course there will always be people that do not want the thief 2 gold missions to be touched, but there will also always be people like me that look forward to see more from them (even if it´s just bits and bites of them) and really appreciate the effort that is done :)

I may take a look at one of the mostly finished Slums mission in the near future but I promise nothing
