With Gibberlings 3 down, many of the mods in BiG World were broken. I wanted to run an overnight install, and so I went through by hand and replaced all the links to gibberling3 with correct links to their emergency mirror (http://www.camagna.n...rror/index.html). Figured I would post it here to save any others the effort.

They should all work with the exception of: Keep Yoshimo and Garrick Flirt Pack, which I could not find copies of on the mirror.

Download Link: http://dl.dropbox.co...0325990/Mod.ini

Installation:

Go to your B1G world Installation Folder. Open -> Big World Setup -> Config.
Create a copy of the Mod.ini folder (rename the file to Mod.inibak or something), so that when Gibberlings3 returns, you can just restore it by overwriting the new mod.ini
Copy the new Mod.ini into the Config folder.
Run BiG world!

Oh I think since I'm not registered I can't edit. Anyways, just a newbie note: To save the Mod.ini you'll need to right click on the link and select "Save link as...", just make sure you rename the old file before saving it to the Big World Setup/Config directory.

Not a regular Big World Player here, but just thought I'd say thanks. That's really very helpful, and as one of G3 Romantic Encounters authors, I appreciate that Big World people are able to play it now. Respect, like we say in Russia. :)

Thank you for the links update. I wish I saw it before manually downloading the files over the last two days. There are some other internet links to some of the older versions of the files. Google was a great help. See the forum page below: http://www.rpgcodex....d.73121/page-11 is you need the two missing mods. But note both the mirror and the above skydrive link have a corrupted PC version of Sarah NPC: The Mod itself (sarahtob-v3.1.exe). I would be greateful if anyone could send a link to a good version. Thank you.

@-Outsider-: thanks, - that was something I was about to start on myself, so it nice to know that someone has already done it. - If anyone is still missing any files, and you are not able to locate them elsewhere, please let me know and I will upload them to the forum or make them available through one of our sites, if they are seriously on the large side. To any modders, or the like: please let me know if you have an issue with anything I upload or make available. - Better yet, supply your own download link and indicate whether you are happy to have the link used in the mod.ini file.

 

Also:

 

Create a copy of the Mod.ini folder (rename the file to Mod.inibak or something), so that when Gibberlings3 returns, you can just restore it by overwriting the new mod.ini


Even if the G3 site returns, it looks very much like many of the mods, including the latest versions of various mods, have been lost. - Take the Touchstone (Touch-the-Moon) NPC and Wild Elf kit, - that remains completely unavailable since the G3 site went down, and is not available through the emergency mirror, either.

@Fromage: The Sarah NPC mod is now available through the new G3 site.

@Fromage: I have uploaded a copy here: http://www.shsforums...arahtob-v31exe/
I uploaded the fixed version of this file to the G3 emergency mirror, so the upload here can be removed. If you find any other missing files from G3, we'd appreciate it if you contacted a G3 person so we could ensure they were on the mirror.

I wish CamDawn would have logged in in the original post so it could have been edited, see:

There's no list of people to contact... now it could be done via K'aelorees account or the others, but erhm ... and then there's no official word on it either.
