I'll release my Work In Progress version anyway, just to compare)
Also I'm intending on creating illum_map textures for windows and glasses.

This is my version of all the fam textures with mtl files. About half of the textures are edited in graphics editor for correctly tiling.
I used about 5 esrgan models: Manga109, MyManga109, Rocks and 2 my own Thief Gold models. Also I used DeDithering model, and run each model twice - on original texture and on dedithered version.
Work in Progress. It is sometimes hard to compare screenshots with TFix, because it uses in several cases much different textures from Thief II in Thief Gold\MODS\FAM\.
Several of my textures differs in color from originals. I'll try to fix that in time.

Unpack it into Thief Gold\USERMODS\
Currently working on obj folder, tiling and illum_map textures for windows and glasses.

Has anyone tried using ESRGAN with Thief Deadly Shadows? I know we have John P Collective tecxture pack but I always thought that certain vanilla textures in the game look better or have better bump mapping (albeit low resolution) that John P's.

Thief GOLD ESRGAN Pack v0.9

All the fam, mech and obj textures are upscaled and mostly correctly tiled by hand.
About 1/3 of illumination maps are created for glasses and windows with lights so they will glow in game.
Pack is intended for TFix because I also upscaled textures from it for mech and obj mods.
All the textures for upscaling was taken from the original Thief Gold, not from the TFix T2 textures mod, cause it differs in aesthetics.
Unpack archive into USERMODS directory.
I'll create a comparison screenshots and proper readme when I will complete those 2/3 of illumination maps. And I also look forward for creating simple reflection map for metal, glass and bronze surfaces. I think it would be some sort of diagenv.png interpretation like in modders thread.
P.S. Yes, it is possible to upscale Thief II, Thief 2X and Thief: DS - it just needs a huge amount of FREE time. I want to complete Thief Gold 1080p movies upscale first (The intro is already done).
P.P.S. The water is very strange, I don't know why it behave so. It cycles animations through original textures and T2 water mod. Maybe if you delete water textures it will behave normal. Don't have time to check, later.
