<Insidious> Tixus accidentally microwaved the 80s
<Insidious> that is my takeaway from this

Ubuntu and Debian builds are now in the vault. The source code has also been updated to fix a problem that would cause it to sometimes fail to build.

The Windows builds have been updated to address line ending issues and an SDL bug that required reverting it back to 2.0.5.

Hey Guys old member here interested in running Megazeux again. I have an older version on my Vista laptop that works but figured with my windows 7 laptop 64 bit processor I would try the new version you have so I attempted to download the latest version 2.91b. I unzipped it to a folder I created for it under my documents and when I attempted to run it the program gave me a path permissions error. after that error the exe file for the editor disappeared. I extracted from the zip again and tried as administrator same thing. So I figured there must be more to running this than the older versions that seemed to be able to run by clicking the exe. Problem is I shutdown the laptop and when it came back up it was as if I did a system restore my desktop image was changed to the Acer screen the laptop came with and all shortcuts that came originally with the computer. All the ones I had added that were not installed ones with the laptop disappeared deleted in the trash bin. The deletes coincided with the run times of the megazeux.exe. I even found a spreadsheet and copied it to my desktop mind you there is only one profile on this machine. I then attempted to restore shortcuts to my desktop but they did not appear on the desktop screen it was as if the desktop I had was a fake and mine was off somewhere in the background. Weirdest thing I have ever experienced. I ran virus scan and it came up with 2 cookies and a number of exploits in the Megazeux files left on my machine. I used the virus scan to eliminate the files then did a system restore back to before the file was run. Laptop is running fine now but wondering what happened. Not sure it was tied you your new version or not? You guys have always had top notch products and I would love to get the new version running but worry it will blow out my laptop again? Not sure if you encountered this with others or not so I posted this in the hopes it may help you.

I've hidden the Windows builds for 2.91b until I can look into this further.

Windows x64 build is clean


Windows x86 looks good except for one scanner, which from the sound of it is prone to false positives.


There isn't much reason you'd be running ccv.exe, hlp2txt.exe, or txt2hlp.exe, and none of these are run by MegaZeux. I'll keep looking into it, don't think the problem is on our end. EDIT: update on Cylance (the scanner that tripped on those three files). It uses machine learning instead of signatures, which tells me it's not particularly reliable. I've unhidden both builds.

As a side note for future reference, there is never any reason whatsoever that you should have to run MegaZeux in administrator mode.

EDIT 2: Mac OS X intel universal build up. Due to hardware failure, the PowerPC build will be significantly delayed.

Permanently fixed the embedded HTML breakage in this thread, hopefully.
