Upon a time, back when BGT and BP were brand new mods, I had a sizable collection of custom bams. There were a large number of rings, including a plain gold band. They were lovely images and blended perfectly in game. Since then I have replaced my computer and have lost all my old downloads from way back then. I would really like to find them again, but either my Google skills are lacking, or they are no longer available online. Does anybody know of a repository of cusotm bams, or does anybody possess such a collection? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did one look something like this?

If so, it might be from Moinesse's BAMs. None of these are really usable as-is though, as all the offsets would have to be changed to get them to display properly in-game (and there are 23 rings alone).

If not, could be from anywhere. Kinda hard to tell without more description.

I have a vague recollection of using some utility to modify them for some reason. But that's part of the problem: my memory is so vague. It's been at least five years since I messed with them. I do remember that several of them were relatively simple with a single stone, in several colors.

Anyway, it's not so important that I find the exact same collection, as that I find something to replace some of the rings with. The sample you showed looks nice. It would appear that Moinesse's collection is no longer available online. Might you be able to send them to the e-mail address in my profile?

It's probably this collection you're thinking of. It's not available publicly but I'm quite sure her intention was to make it public, as she did with her Avatars.* I've written a utility that fixes all the BAMs en masse, so I'll be uploading this publicly quite soon (and perhaps the utility itself, if anyone wants it).

Edit: And indeed that was her intent... don't bother with that download link though... doesn't work, and as I said, I'll be fixing and uploading them.

Thank you! These aren't the ones I remember, but there are some good bams there. It's amazing that such an old game still has such an active and dedicated mod community.
