Small Update regarding the Doplik debacle: 0.5.x.d
Greetings everyone,
In the last few days, we started observing a strange rise in reports from some of our playerbase who claimed that their VoidBound copies were being flagged by their Anti-Virus software being infected by the Doplik virus. They also added that they were playing the game fine one day, but couldn't anymore the next after their AVs updated their virus definitions, forcefully quarantining the Game.exe file.
On pursuing the issue further we found that all the reports that were being submitted had one common theme- that they were ALL coming from users who were using Microsoft's Windows Defender AV as their protection software.
Eventually, after thorough investigation, we concluded this to be a false positive instance as no other Anti-Virus, apart from the aforementioned one, was detecting any sort of malware whatsoever. In-fact we came across multiple instances of different developers around who were experiencing the same exact issue as the detection seems to be not targeting a particular game, but the RPGM game engine itself.
If you're interested, you can read on it further here:
Unfortunately, all our efforts to get Microsoft to remedy the situation urgently has amounted to little progress as they seem to be dragging their feet on this one. As such, rather than waiting for MS to fix the issue in their own good time, we've decided to get ahead of this ourselves and have issued an updated build swapping out the problematic Game.exe file with an older variant. We also ran multiple scans on the substituted file and came back with no detection results anymore so, with renewed confidence, we offer it to you now.
Please note, as there are no content updates in this one, the version ID itself remains the very same. We just advanced the trailing tag from "c" to "d"
For our Patrons, the build can be found here: VoidBound 0.5.4d
For fans outside of Patrondom, build can be found here: VoidBound 0.5.3d
We understand that making an older build so close to the release of a new patch might seem odd to some, but it just didn't feel right to us to ignore an issue that was causing wariness among players, so here we are.
Hope this closes the chapter on this unfortunate event. Thank you Microsoft for that, btw!
Kind Regards,
Cursed-Atelier Team
