Those files were removed within a few minutes after it was found out, and it happened many versions ago, so yes, they are fine.

Are you sure you installed it properly?
This version of the game has been out for a few months and it works for everyone else.
Also v0.27 should be here soon, it's releasing today for subscribers and the public release is in 10 days.
If you can't make it work on the current version, just wait for the new version.
As soon as it's out I'll make sure it works, and update if necessary.
Used the download on the front page, was the correct version, extracted and moved into the place with the .exe, replaced existing files as instructed

It should work then.
If you want more help, I'll need more details and maybe some screenshots could help.
Why are you sharing sha check sums with us?
what are we suppose to do with them without the actual data that created them
If you get your hands on the game from a sus. place, you can check it for tampering.Why are you sharing sha check sums with us?

Of course you need to trust Kayaa, for this to work
I know perfectly well what checksum are used for.
But its kind of pointless to have them without the actual data.
Besides If those checksums are generated on the entire data set it will be invalid when a compressor uploads a version.

First off, it's not just about blindly trusting. All the release date info and stuff comes straight from the dev's Discord channel. The checksums pulled from the open chat in his Discord. Anyone can check it themselves, just hop into his channel – links are in the OP.Why are you sharing sha check sums with us?

Second, there's been a bunch of times where some asshole adds their own code with a virus into the original game files, then repackages the game archive and drops the download links here. This way, you can at least check if some random dude stuck their virus-ridden crap into the original update. And since these compressed versions are based on leaked builds, it's like, the bare minimum you can do to check the game files before you unpack the archive.
If someone got a hold of the game on a "Sus" place. what makes you think they are on this forum watching this thread and|or even know about the checksum?
you say the compressed version is based on leaked versions. arent they all?. but we have no guarantee for that.
you can only blindly trust that the compressor is honest, have no bad intentions.
Yes ofc repacking the game with malware/viruses in them is bad.
But once the game is compresses it will have get another checksum and its impossible to "reverse" the checksum to the original to check if good or not.
Dont get me wrong. checksums are fine and a good thing.
My point was: checksums are useless without the actual data.
So why just release the checksum? "because someone on a sus site might get the hold of it?"
The person who will upload the game to this site can add the check sum to the post so people can verify it.
Posting a checksum without the actual data feels more like an annoying teaser for upcoming release.

I post the checksums from the developer here, the ones that match the original build. That way, if some asshole wants to leak a new update (original \ uncompressed) here, you can download their archive and check the checksum against the dev's checksum before you unpack it.
If it's the original version from the dev, the checksum should match the dev's checksum. If it doesn't, it means whoever leaked the game changed something in the original files or repackaged the game. But then you gotta ask, why would they do that if its not compressed versions?
As for compressed versions, I don't care about those, since I don't use them and don't recommend them to others. Like you said, people who use compressed versions have to completely trust the people who make them.
- I'm doing it because someone might find it useful. If you think it's useless, just close your eyes and skip my post. I don't see a point in discussing this further.

You know that the checksums will still be here on the release day and later, don't you? I don't get what's all the fuss about.

Someone saw a post, didn't understand it, pretended they do when called out, and so finally made an ass of themselves. Typical Internet shit.
Your point is what? that i can go back in and check the checksum later ?
I didnt start making a fuss. i stated. checksums are usless without the data.
and i said in my last post, just showing off a checksum feels more like an annoying teaser for upcoming release.
and as Kayaa said. there is no point in discussing this further.
Are you refering to me?
If so please explain to me what i dont understand about checksums. and how they work.
Lets start with crc, then move on to crc32 then lets do MD5 before we dive into how sha works.

So you think I was saying you didn't know what a checksum was or how it worked? More evidence that you didn't understand the original post (not checksums, but the post itself). And now you clearly don't understand my post, either. And no, I'm not going to explain, so don't bother replying.
