This gives the false appearance that it's the other mods which contain bugs - a topic which I'll cover in a later comment.Īs you know, TM:PE team have been working hard to fix speed-related bugs over the past few weeks, so you can imagine how it felt to discover that some of those problems were created on purpose by another modder and that they were directly targeted at us.If the player ID matches an entry on the list, the mod proceeds to change road speeds to a random - but always slow - value.One of the lists appears to be mostly modders and CO employees the other is a list of ordinary steam users many of whom will not be aware that they are direct targets of malware.When someone starts the game with the NExt3 mod enabled, it checks if the game is running in Steam portal and, if so, then checks the player's Steam ID against two lists of Steam IDs.It's not our place to tell you which mods to use, but at least wait for the additional detail before making a decision.Īs mentioned in OP, the malware is trivial: In the interim there is a high liklihood that Holy Water will release his own version of TM:PE. Chaos is doxing and harrassing anyone who calls him out on his behaviour, adding them to his targeted malware system, and then claiming that _he_ is the actual victim (a technique called "DARVO" = deny, attack, reverse victim and offender).Chaos has added code to his Harmony "redesigned" mod's reporting tool which is highly misleading (often indicating the wrong mod being responsible for an error, when in most cases it's _affected_ by an error from somewhere else).Chaos has blocked former members of Network Extensions mod, including myself, from creating derivative works on his version of the mod.Upon bugs appearing in other mods, Chaos claims that they are badly written in order to gain more users for his mods - which in turn are designed to cause bugs in other mods.Those bugs are affecting TM:PE users (we have several confirmed cases) and when TM:PE team go in to investigate we are hit by malware.Network Extensions 3 was modified with "tripwire" code specifically designed to cause bugs in other mods.While the malware is trivial (it randomly alters speed limits), it's caused a lot of excess support workload and raises concerns about what other malware may be present (particularly in the Harmony "Redesigned" mod).Network Extensions 3 contains malware which directly targets multiple members of our team, dozens of other modders, employees of Colossal Order, and dozens of Steam users many of whom will not be aware that they are targets of malware.
In TM:PE 11.6.4.8 we are marking _all_ mods by Chaos / Holy Water / drok (same person) as incopatible for the following reasons:
