ESET didn't replied anything as false alert.
Did this has been tested by ED Team ?

We can't know if there is a threat or not by our own. This is why
we are using internet security software, to do this instead of us.
This is why i've expressed my opinion, while this is an identified
trojan threat, found in official DCS update, to me and to others.
And from the time that there is problem, we have to solve it and is
not a matter NOT TO from reputation point of view. All do mistakes.
So:
This is supposed a forum to discuss problems for Combined Arms.
But there is no OFFICIAL answer or comment from any OFFICIALS.
Means that this problem hasn't be REPORTED to be checked by ED yet.
This is why we all are just filling up a thread with personal
ASSUMPTIONS of any kind that in the final they don't give a
secure answer to anyone what or not to do.How many times we all somehow search for a solution in a problem
and we've follow total wrong advises ? that lead us to danger and
security risks or nonsense such as reinstall software and windows
again, format your hard drives, buy a new PC or better buy a car ?
So if someone read here and follow to allow/ignore this threat to
be installed and latter on will regret it ? Better to be warned.Thank you.
PS:
I fully agree with your points and i fully respect your way to
express them. Forums need persons like you to keep the balance.
I have already uninstall the module and i will try reinstall it
after next update, till there will be no warning. -

Show some RESPECT to all Members that have the same problem here,
this that you call "tin foil hat stories".Are you a Moderator or ED Team member or Support Team member ?

I understand what you mean as i did compile some code that it's
behavior taken as a trojan.
Indeed i fully trust ESET and it's decision to quarantine this file
and as the link shows, this trojan is active till 2018 so there was
no something new after i send the file for analysis. As i've mentioned
before there was similar trojan problem with Gazelle module that was
fixed by ED update later on.
It will be good if ED will take a look at it also, so to save us
long assumptions, but (personally) i don't rely in such actions.-

Are you saying that the file is definitely infected with a trojan
ESET is analyzing every file:
or during download
or before direct execution
or before a call to be execute
or to be read.
This one is a .dll. Means that it will be called to be used/read later on.
But it is infected with this trojan.ESET checking every file for possible infection and only if finds an infected one,
is blocking the file from be executed/read and then moves it to the quarantine. -

Its best to submit the file to your provider for analysis. Probably a false positive

These are the files that were detected btw.
It's the same file. ESET quarantines every threat, every time as a single individual event.
So don't worry for multi threats.
The last one (top) is after you decided to ignore the threat and allowed it to be installed.
The others (till 12:19:39 PM) are the attempts that you decided the threat to be clean.They all quarantined, none managed to pass through, but this affects DCS to act differently as it misses files to run properly.

It is a TROJAN.
The problem continues after the last update 17-Mar-23 also, but is worst.
No terrains found and some other modules went in OFFLINE mode.
CombinedArms.dll was blocked and quarantined by ESET during update.
I had to UNINSTALL Combined Arms module and then run REPAIR.
No threats found in DCS World OpenBeta DCS Saved Games folders after scan.-

try a different AV program if all else fails
It's a personal choice of which one you trust.
I've switched from NORTON to ESET since 1997 and i've never had any problem.

It's up to you, but i would be more careful to turn off my internet protection without having an official assurance that it is indeed a false alert.

have you tried just simply running a repair using the updater to see if it makes a difference?
Yes i did repair at first. Once ESET reads the file is quarantine it.
Also i did a scan to DCS Open Beta folder, the same.
Something is wrong with this file. I've send it for analysis to ESET.21 hours ago, steffj said:Steff
I got the same. In defalut and MT versions.
It's a file matter, no DCS executables.

It is just a file matter,no need to reinstall the whole DCS.

AVG antivirus flagged it and automatically moved it to quarantine as well.
So other than my antivirus find something weird. Thank you for the info.
I have uninstall CA and i will upload the quarantine fie to ESET for further analysis.
I propose to anyone that have problem to do the same as DCS haven't fix it till now.

it makes me worry that someone has slipped a trojan into the code
The Gazelle incident was recognized & blocked as Trojan and i had to
uninstall it so to avoid the trouble till was fixed. In this one, seems that
developers have/creating safety problems. It's out of question to put
any kind of such exemption to my firewall.

I have just connected to our squads multi-player server using the multi-threading version and was able to take control of a tank without issue?
During the update/repair the CombinedArms.dll goes offline because ESET Internet Security finds it as threat.
23 hours ago, skypickle said:There are several threads here documenting that ESET sees the combined arms dll as a threat and deletes itt immediately on download
Didn't had problems till now, till last update. In past there was similar problem with Gazelle, but was fixed fast
21 hours ago, skypickle said:Which antivirus do you use? Specifically which version of eset and have you changed any of its scanning options or added any exclusions?
ESET Internet Security. No change in my settings. Just the last update.
In past there was similar problem with Gazelle, but was fixed fast.

I think that the present battlefield shows that everything
have change drastically, so the arsenal, so the platforms
and most important: the digital (UAV) & manned abilities
in air land and sea.
Good to have modules for WW2, Cold war era, and some
traces of modern vehicles such as 1986's AH-64D plus their weapon version limitations!
But now today, we are living in the stealth technology and Space Forces era, and IMO,
almost before our spaceships will appear flying in front of our eyes in the skies.
Seems that DCS have missed the long term advertised "real war battlefield conditions",
once is selling/adding just collectable museum type of antiques, from a forgotten past. -
Got sick with NATO planes/hellis. I prefer
to see more Russian planes/hellis in DCS.-

As shown, the officials towards this community are far absent.
No need to comment this stance as their absence is the silent
answer to the primary question of this thread.-

Sorry mate but i am out of time here and have to go.
Try Unit.getByName(GROUP[i]) as you are based on unit.
And for multiple explossions use a random for to loop.-

A fast answer:
Is this a UNIT's or a GROUP's name ? Does exist in the mission ?

The whole picture will be much more clear
once you compare it with other games that
still have full servers, because they managed
to keep their communities productive/active
for more than 10 years.-

Electronic Warfare, DCS module.
in DCS Core Wish List
Posted · Edited by ADHS
The recent battlefield in ukraine, has revealed a hidden force that is fighting at
the present wars and have a significant role in: Electronic. Drones, Satellites, etc.
I think it will be a good idea to include this role in a new or an existence DCS module.
