Does anybody know of any other link to D/L the Check the Bodies mod? With TeamBG's site unfortunately down, the only link I have (http://iegmc.mirror.intermedia.com.sg/) just seems to yield me a corrupt file.

I've tried a few times but no luck :(

Any help greatly appreciated!

Looks like you're outta luck. With such a huge download size it's not surprising that one isn't available.

Is Team BGs site down forever?

@Mystra's Chosen - probably you're right, tho the Wizard's link has a D/L much smaller than the older 275 quoted on Sorcerers. Having said that. it's a corrupt file!! (well, for me anyway).

@Bahir. Word is that TeamBG will be back if Ken the owner has good back-up and gets the finance. Apparently, some annoying runt of a hacker did the damage. Whip-round anyone? :)

No problems whatsoever downloading it from the link you provided.

2 or 3 bad d/ls in a row? Ho-hum....

Anyway, Taluntain's right. The d/ls, files and the installation are all fine.

My thoughts exactly! I reckon they're just very, very sad people...bit like those that write viruses as well.

Still. We have to put up with them.

If you're really keen on getting that mod, then you could purchase an SPS account. You get direct downloads from SP that way. (That's what the FAQ says anyway.)

That's right.

Anyway, Taluntain's right. The d/ls, files and the installation are all fine.? So now it works for you?

Sorry, I didn't make it clear. I got a good d/l this time. Just surprised that previous attempts had all been corrupt.

As regards a SP account I'd be more than happy to take one out for a site that covers the best games out there. As a noob of just a few days though, give me a couple of weeks to have a look and check everything out first!

Just a brief question: what's the theme of this mod? I first hear the name and google search results couldn't give me any real answer.

Aren't there some readme file included that may give some more clues about the contents?

There was one hosted on TeamBG. The mirrors just have the files. There should be one in the download, though.

Wouldn't mind knowing myself when team bg is gonna be back.A recent conversation that some members of the community had with Ken revealed that TeamBG may be gone for good. Ken has had some problems with the server and hosts from the beginning and he said that he is simply getting tired of it.

There are a few readmes that come with it but none give any overview of the general theme. It all kicks off in Candlekeep when you're a kid....well 10 years previous to Jonny's dungeon, which for me with a 29 year old character was a bit weird with an avatar of a little boy (who's therefore 19yo).

Anyway this is like a tutorial portion of the mod. The only other pointers I can give are a list of the quests. Make of it what you will:

The "tutorial" area of Candlekeep
Holly The Elf
Ryberg and his Uncle
Fifty Gold Fine For Littering
The Marriage of Surayah
Feed The Birds
Den of Nightly Brawls
Expanded Company of Eight
The Subdual
Melynda
Assassination Attempt I
The Academy of Kuldin (not really a quest)
Captured!
Of Elves and Artifacts, or: The Maltese Artifact.
Horton Spots A Who
The Ancient Library (not really a quest)
"An Unsanctioned Use of Magical Energy"
"Spellfire" (not a quest)
"Tis Pity She's A Wench" (not a quest)
Civil Disobeidance
Death And Taxes
Assassination Attempt II
Got Ice?
The Master Vampire
Close To Home
The Secession
Dungeon Crypts of Hlondeth (not really a quest)
A "hidden" quest for:
Bards
Barbarians
Druids
Rangers
Mages

I reckon d/l the mod and check it out....
