Here's something out of left field: I downloaded this a month ago, and I decided to launch it today after procrastinating a bunch. But I got some error that said that there were missing fonts in one of the folders. I went to check, and the font was indeed there but the .ttf file is corrupted... I can't even access the main menu or right-click ingame.
Since I never bothered to launch it before, I simply went ahead and tried to delete it. To my surprise, Windows asked me to grant
Admin permissions to delete everything but that was useless; the only folder that is still standing is game\gui and its subfolders. I tried
- Shift+Del.
- cmd.
- Downloading a couple of tools to forcibly remove it.
Nothing worked. Then, I thought about re-downloading everything since I tried to use ScrappyMod when I first got it, but I decided to check on VirusTotal (bunkr and MEGA links, since those are the fastest and won't ask for captcha in JDownloader), and
on both there was one flag for
phishing. Now, I know that 1/96 usually means a false positive, and admittedly both flags come from different security vendors, but now I'm kinda second-guessing myself upon this.
Not necessarily asking for further advice, but I wonder if someone else had this issue, too... I will download everything again anyway -minus ScrappyMod- and see if that does it. Wouldn't be surprised if the game detects mods, even though it has been around for months.
EDIT: nope. That was useless.
