I wanted to download the first DRM remover, but the system says it contains a virus. (I was able to download the second one, but the game won't start with that.)

Maybe a false alarm. Many anti-malware programs will misdetect stuff like DRM-removers as viruses. Not that there are no virus-infected DRM-removers, but this one is used by way too many people for the virus to be a possibility.

Honestly, I suspect that anti-malwares are tuned to attack any program that hosts Jolly Roger on its mast. For I have seen them frequently attack cracks, pirate installers and the like - even when there were no actual virus. And I don't mean: "dude, this software is sus, don't click it", I mean: "SUPER-MEGA DANGER WRYYYYY!!111" when there was no danger.

I had the same alarm from windows defender i don't use any other antivirus, i tried to use goldberg emu or whatever other stuff but they are too complicated for me i wasnt able to. And yeah second one didn't work for me as well (I put it in the file where is exe.) I guess i will have to resort to the detected one which i don't want to test. I guess i will pass this game

hmm strange. it runs on my computer (tm)
just tested the uncompressed 5.1.7 using the .bat and the game starts without complaint.

did you follow each step in that post? the batch file will not work from within the .zip which means you must extract it and put it into the same folder where the Ravager.exe is located.
also, this will likely not work on Mac, or (stupid)smartphones.
it is for windoze, and should more or less work on any version from XP up to 7/8/8.1/10/11. the latter (10 and 11) will possibly block execution of a file 'from a different computer'.
could someone please confirm if that happens..?
because i don't use win10/11 on any gaming PC. i don't play stuff that explicitely want win10 or 11.. hrm i don't even know if there are any games out yet which do that.

Sure, but I got the same result as bora123123321. I retrieved the number one DRM remover from the download history and downloaded it from there, so the system did not classify it as a virus. Thanks to everyone who tried to help. :)

not really, considering how the dev claims that he wants to add stuff his supporters want but has not, like i said, the dev had promised a centaur and, if i remember correctly, rain as future captives/waifus, this was promised 2 years ago and there's still nothing. There was also mention of potentially having a futa captive, though i only remember seeing it brought up 2 or 3 times. Also there was supposed to be scenes added for doing stuff with the girls in the bath, this was a pretty popular request, again also not added when most people wanted it.

ok i double checked, this file your windows says 'couldn't find', is there.
i'm not certain.. but i think it could be windoze itself blocks the execution (DEP - Data Execution Prevention) and i don't have a solution for that, except maybe you find something in your system event log. that's where it will start to look like "Windows [some windows program] has blocked suspicious activity" or something similiar. sorry, i don't have a solution for that.
or maybe your AV blocks it without telling you.. several AV do that, like Avast, Avira etc. it should be in the antivirus whatever log file, probably marked as 'PUP' aka 'possibly unwanted program'.
it still seems to work for other people.

that's caused by AV heuristics in most cases.. lots of installers and um let's call them 'yarrr! helpers' use code injection. even major AAA brand games use that method partially to work closer with the hardware.
here comes your AV, which is set on treating such behaviour as 'sneaky'. which it is. gazillions of virussens use the very same method, to put some code into totally legit OS components.
the AV has a choice, to either let it slide, or to match this particular code against a database, or to just mark it suspicious and do what it's told to, with suspicious thingy. lazy AV devs won't have a hourly updated fully actual top notch database.. so their AV says SUSSSPISHOUS and herre cometh a nuke. or it does the nuke behind the scene and you wonder why something won't start.

hrmm i have this link in my sig, why devs hate AV. that old post is still up.

Lol I try to play this and every time I click on the exe, my steamgame tray pulls up and says can't play the game. Like what the hell? This isn't even a steam game is it? Lmao.

It is a Steam game (duh!) and it requires you to download DRM-remover from the first page of this thread. If your anti-virus will say: "WRRYYYY! DANGER! DANGER!", ignore it - dozens of people downloaded it already and had zero issues. After you'll install DRM-remover, it will no longer try to launch Steam and will work just fine for your enjoyment.


BTW, pregnant Valzira scene is somehow still not in the gallery, despite it being the second (or third?) update that specified it was added. Am I doing something wrong?

Try looking at the OP and in particular the sentence in bright orange. If people would only do the equivalent of RTFM, there'd be a lot fewer posts here,

if you find the first one suspicious, get a warning, and trust your AV blindly, maybe try the batch file ('other remover'). that won't raise alerts but sometimes seems to not work, if your windoze is set to deem you a 'just user'. just scroll up this page there's some pros and cons.
