I downloaded an SP build and endpoint shows that it is a .vhd (virtual hard drive). What the heck? They tried to cover it as a .zip when it is a .vhd. It is a .scr virus (screensaver) virus.
Andrew?

@DatMaluchGuy19 I haven’t figured it out cause i deleted it when that showed up.
What Was It?
The mods i have installed:
Mechanical Instrumentat
(underscores between both words and infront of mechanical)
Space designer
fine tuner
gpws
hanger
minimap with screen
more powerful engines
overload
photographer's map
simplewings
textured fuselage block
i dont believe it is space designer, photographer's map, overload, minimap with screen, more powerful engines, textured fuselage block, or fine tuner because they run just fine.
@HuskyDynamics01 Just this one, but I already deleted it. It seems to be a mod because maybe the SP plane files are too small to hold a virus from another post. Its also on my laptop too.
Well, the entirety of a SimplePlanes download from the site is a six-byte file. That file gives you the aircraft ID (which you can also see in the plane's site URL after the
/a/
), which the game uses to actually download the plane's XML file (which stores the actual plane data).Was it that one specific plane, or does it happen with many? If it's every plane, it could be your antivirus registering a false positive with the .splane file type (though I haven't heard of that before).
I also noticed linux is installed, most likely from WSL. Why would that be installed? The file is completely empty.
@5 I dont remember, deleted it already
Which build
