I read a few pages back coz of the commotion and I believe it's something urgent.

Question, is this game safe to download as of this time? Has there been a remedy already to the situation or should we hold off for a bit until the f95 team sort this threat out or at least get a non-virus copy of the latest game?
thank you.

The links have been udpated to a clean version so it is safe to download now. If you want to be extra safe, you can download a sandbox software and run the game from there.

I did a full scan with Windows Defender and it said 0 threats detected but my PC restarted randomly, am I just being paranoid or is my PC still infected?

More than likely, the next logical step though is to make it effect save files, as there have been instances of infected save files.
Well if save files can also be infected, that kind of defeats the purpose of using it since I can't use the saves outside of the sandbox. I guess I will just have to wait a few days after a game is posted before I download it and see if no one has reported any infections.

I think you mis-understand me.

This I mean is by downloading someone else's saves, this is why the token/security system was implemented in newer versions of Ren'Py. As save files are software.

Yes only R3 was affected.

The links are now fine I cleaned it up and reuploaded PC (that was the only version affected).

Also my compression is and was fine.
So just to make sure,

All the links from your compression post are/was safe.

The links that were not was on the front page.

Hey guys, 2 things, is there a better way to search for things like keywords in f95 than just the search bar? And second, I have a realm ch 2 save and whenever i try importing it to ch3 it says error, I did use mods, is that the problem, and if so should i just speedrun without mods?

I ran the game and found the bin folder, I deleted both within 10 minutes, ran a full scan with Kaspersky and Malwarebytes, nothing detected. So, I am good?

From former replies and information I think you are good, it seems that the game has to be connected over a longer period of time (10min+) to be able to harm your system. I did the same run it, saw the bin file and immediately closed the exe and deleted everything from the program including the bin folder and just to be on the safe side run a scan on my PC.

And yes the current links are safe, already downloaded the last version of the game.
