He actually was on the 1337x comment section defending himself and at a point he said he downloaded it from [Russian website] and only repacked it. He said we could go download it from there if we didn't trust him, but I also got a virus warning from that one...
"There was a sign down at Ramsett Park that said 'Don't drink the sprinkler water', so I made sun tea with it, and now I have an infection"
It's cool you investigated and found out they did just (accidentally?) repack a dirty copy, but it definitely reminded me of that lady from Parks and Rec.
That's true, I didn't embark on this journey of testing all the clients on my on will though.
Something I realised is that "Baldurs Gate 3" will wield very different results from "Baldur's Gate 3" . The files with the apostrophe seem to be legit, or... At least legiter
So he "repacked" it and either A. Was dumb enough to not verify wtf he was repacking, or B. Intentionally added the miner.
Don't look like a real smart cookie with either option lmfao
