can confirm this, detected by bitdefender while scanning it.
Going to attempt to replicate this, was this via curseforge launcher, or manual download?
CurseForge Launcher is where I grabbed and scanned the jar. Edit: But just downloading the jar from CF sites yields the same results when scanning.
Edit 2: Here's Virustotals site results: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/bf58450deee9e32d01f90b88d53906063709272ebacb5d7297b92249e60f5754
So after doing some research, and un-compiling the mod, it looks like its mainly the mcCreator code that is flagging it as a false positive. After removing the JAR file and placing it in a seperate folder outside of the jar and scanning that, it came up as fine, but for some reason scanning the jar flags it as a trojan.
I'm going to look more into this, and most likely attempt to rebuild the mod off of mcCreator if that is the case.
Gotcha, so it's a false positive. A relief for users reporting this then.
Looking at the VirusTotal link provided, nearly every single one of the details is from the mcCreator code. I ran a scan of the actual mcCreator workspace aswell, which appears clean too.
Discovered files creating the false positive, they were unadded structure files, they have since been removed from the latest version of the mod, and versions 1.4 - 1.4.5.1 are now archived due this issue being present in all of them.
You Archived v1.4 - v1.4.5.1, but v1.5 is also having that issue, as initially reported.
Missed that part tbh, just archived 1.5 aswell. Thank you for the heads up.
file is flagged as trojan and removed as soon as its downloaded
