On this list you will find a selection of best mods that were released in 2009 (as well as those from late December, since I’m starting fresh it would be silly to ignore those few gems that were out shortly before the year has ended).
Unfortunately it’s impossible for me to list every mod including the smallest ones that add one new car or tweak the existing game, or new updates for modern mods, so I willconcentrate on big modifications, ie: total conversions, mods that add ton of new stuff or big SP missions. For selection of mods I didn’t list (as well as more info on those I’ve listed) be sure to visit those sites:
Mod DB-general mod news
VirtualR.net-a site about racing sims in general, the best place to look for mods to racing games
Thief: the Circle-the place to look for Thief Fan Missions
Filefront- listing of latest mod files
Hard Light Productions-premier Freespace modding site
IMPORTANT: The info about mods is far more scattered through the net than about commercial games, which makes it a lot harder to make comprehesive listings. So if you know any good mods that I’ve missed and they’ve came out in 2009 and meet the above criteria (ie big mods, adding tons of new stuff 
) then please PM me so I can check them out and see if they should be placed on this list

Invitation to Castle Morgoth fan mission for Thief Gold
“This is a dark, creepy mission suited perfectly to Thief Gold. The choice of music is excellent. I had many jump-out-of-my-chair moments while wandering through Castle Morgoth. There are several undead at the Castle. The mission is challenging, but, with carefull attention to details, you are provided the resources to complete it. The mission is very dark; however, nothing is hidden in the blackness. It adds to the spooky atmosphere and enhances certain areas of the mission. I highly recommend playing this mission.”- Thief: the Circle
Prowler of the Dark fan mission for Thief Gold (can be played on basic Thief, but then it requires the Thief Gold Patch
“Garrett has been hired to recover an ancient skull. The skull is reported to be held in a Hammerite compound. Surely there will be a safe way in and out for a Master Thief (…)This is a small city mission with a mere five days spent building it, yet it is a great little mission. Melan has created an intricate town with many areas to explore, including the rooftops. Explore everything thouroughly for there are many treasures. I thoroughly enjoyed playing. Prowler has all the classic feeling of the original TDP missions and the gritty visuals that many of us still appreciate. This is certainly one of my favorite small T1/G FMs. I recommend it.”- Thief: the Circle
