Found this over on ttlg -

Info:
These tunes were produced for a Thief 2 fan mission project called "The Hammerite Imperium" which folded due to unfortunate circumstances. Instead of letting my work go to waste, I decided to release them to the public. My main aim is to provide the Thief fan mission community with a collection of music that they can include in their missions for free, but fan mission makers/modders/etc. for other games and projects can use these too. You are free to use them for non-profit purposes only.

Why So many? Why so short?
These songs are designed to be used in certain areas, to enhance certain emotions, elements, etc. in the mission. Also, They are meant to be repeated (looped) an arbitrary amount of times and having short songs in small files is cost effective for this purpose. Even though the names would suggest, they were never actual songs, but collections of shorter themes that have now been separated into individual files. You can still (re)construct them into longer songs by placing them in the playlist of your favorite player (e.g. WinAmp). You can also have some fun with the shuffle/random functionality of the player. That way you get an ever morphing song that should keep the listener's interest up for quite a long time.

I have listened to a selection. The style isn't bad, but what the mod needs most aren't really musical pieces but looped "effects", cues, drones, that kind of stuff.

Come the time of peril, did the ground gape, and did the dead rest unquiet 'gainst us. Our bands of iron and hammers of stone prevailed not, and some did doubt the Builder's plan. But the seals held strong, and the few did triumph, and the doubters were lain into the foundations of the new sanctum. -- Collected letters of the Smith-in-Exile, Civitas Approved

Hiya. Thank you for sharing the link, and for the comments. I'm the guy who made these songs - originally for the Thief 2 Fan Mission campaign "The Hammerite Imperium". This campaign unfortunately didn't go anywhere in the end (the first mission was released with the help of BikerDude among others), so almost all of these tunes were left unused. Therefore I released them for free, so that anyone can use them in their fan missions, or in other non-profit endeavors.

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?
