Hello. Just want to quickly address a new issue that has popped up. The windows defender warning.
This is a peculiar thing. It started happening long after I had patched V67 for the last time.
I managed to find the offensive files in the game .jar, and remove those, and I thought the problem was solved.
But now it seems to have found something else to complain about.
The particular files it's nagging about is the framework "lwjgl", which is all about rendering things to the screen. This exact copy of it is also in V66, which to my knowledge passes the defender tests. With the files being identical, I can only surmise that this must be something about dates and modification dates.
My own personal theory, which is probably not correct, is that there are variations of SoS floating about on the internet, and some of them contains a virus/malware. The defender then sees all SoS copies of this and that modification date as threats.
I can only say that I have not uploaded anything dangerous. This I can prove with the fact that this started happening long after I had patched V67. (I have patched since to remove the offending malware warning. It was useless files in any case).
So, I'm at the mercy of the whims of windows defender here. Since I have no knowledge of the matter, all I can do is pray. And you can help me out by reporting the file to Microsoft. There should be a button somewhere when you get the warning.
I am 99.99% sure this is a false flag thing. I can't say 100%, because I'm not all knowing in the matter. I'm also not overly worried, since this only affects V67 beta, and I'll look into it seriously for V68.
Also, make sure you let steam verify the installation. Might be that you haven't gotten the latest version, and that this version is fine.
If you have any information about this, of things I can try to do, please let me know.
