It's a Smart Feature (tm) by Avast that triggers when you download from a little known site (ie., mine). According to their forums:


--- Quote ---Hi,
DomainRep is a new feature of Avast, so let me explain a bit. It blocks EXE files downloads if these conditions are *all* met:
1. The file is not prevalent enough, ie. not enough Avast users launched the file yet,
2. The domain is not prevalent enough, ie. not enough Avast users downloaded (any) EXE files from the domain yet,
3. The file is not signed or Avast does not trust the signature.

Sorry about that. If someone from GTM packs this into a .zip and uploads it to the site downloads, I'll update links to point there instead.

I do hope that this feature can be disabled in avast, gotta hate that such unneeded features get added just because there are "brain dead" people out there that DL everything and then complain that windows is full of viruses that appear out of nowhere.

Serge:
So yes, I was able to also patch being able attach anything to anything... I could also patch being able to intersect components.

Now I'm really not sure whether I should release this. I'm afraid RA2 will never be the same afterwards.



Elders of the community, what to do?

EDIT: Decided to release this on the 26th. See original post.

Sircreepalot2:
no one man should have all that power

cephalopod:
I don't think releasing those will benefit the community, honestly. Could cause more harm than good, decreasing the skill needed for certain builds, but equally as long as the rules for tournaments/building styles are clear, it might not make a lot of difference...
At the end of the day, this is all yours to do as you wish with.

Nice, both of those things can be set in the components file, right?(for my mod I'll definitely allow weapon to chassis clipping and I'd love to allow attaching everything to everything) I think this could be RA 2.5(funny enough my mod was aiming to be that).
