hey, accidentally misclicked on a padding setting for boon table now my game com...
Try with deleting <GW2>/addons/arcdps/arcdps_table.ini
astral cargo
okay send me a screenshot of your gw2 folder
clever ibex
astral cargo
yea that looks fine, can you send me screenshots of bin64 and bin64/cef as well?
clever ibex
astral cargo
no, I mean the folder content
astral cargo
inside cef?
oh
yea that looks completely normal
are you running nvidia smooth motion by any chance?
clever ibex
just check dx11?
clever ibex
are you running nvidia smooth motion by any chance?
check through control panel?
astral cargo
I think so, or in geforce experience
clever ibex
ah yeah nvidia app?
astral cargo
yea
astral cargo
okay now it gets really funky wtf, and nexus worked before?
clever ibex
yep, i had my tables up and everything
just went to change a padding value on the boon table addon and it crashed instantly
astral cargo
okay, silly idea just redownload nexus
clever ibex
fresh install of nexus a good idea?
clever ibex
okay, silly idea just redownload nexus
then just put in folder
astral cargo
are you 100% sure that this is the correct gw2 folder (you have no addons folder, I figure you deleted it)
astral cargo
then just put in folder
yep
clever ibex
are you 100% sure that this is the correct gw2 folder (you have no addons folder...
yeah no addons folder
HUH
astral cargo
yea, this happens since microsoft changed something lately 🙃
both arcdps and nexus get flagged as a "gamehack"
clever ibex
both arcdps and nexus get flagged as a "gamehack"
ah right
astral cargo
I already opened a ticket and they said they wouldn't change it
clever ibex
okie is it worth restarting PC to see if that rectifies anything
plus verifying game files?
clever ibex
yep ok ill do that back in a moment
astral cargo
It could actually be that while it lets you download the file finally, it blocks it from running
so might have to add an exclusion in the antivirus
astral cargo
yea, you'll have to add an exception
that is likely why it doesn't work to begin with
how boontable triggered that is beyond me
clever ibex
where's the setting to change antivirus exceptions again? been a while since ive had to do it
astral cargo
do you only use defender, or something else?
astral cargo
I have excluded the entire gw2 folder, but I do recommend only adding exclusions for individual files (e.g. Nexus)
astral cargo
is that all nexus?
clever ibex
yep
astral cargo
that explains a lot lol
clever ibex
do i have to clear all those
astral cargo
still funny that boontable triggered it
astral cargo
do i have to clear all those
you shouldn't have to
if you add nexus as an exception you should be able to run it
clever ibex
ok where to add exceptions?
astral cargo
if that doesn't work, try to clear the latest one
virus and threat protection settings here in the bottom right
and then exclusions
clever ibex
yep i just put whole folder
astral cargo
that works too
clever ibex
now move .dll file into gw2?
astral cargo
yea
astral cargo
yea
astral cargo
fucking hell
clever ibex
can install my addons again
astral cargo
yea should be fine
clever ibex
fucking hell
ong
astral cargo
I need to figure out what to do to prevent microsoft from flagging this shit...
clever ibex
yeah it seems annoying
astral cargo
if you run into any other issues let me know
clever ibex
I need to figure out what to do to prevent microsoft from flagging this shit...
is it to do with the file format or something?
clever ibex
if you run into any other issues let me know
yeah will do
astral cargo
is it to do with the file format or something?
both the file format and how it works
at the end of the day nexus/arc are pretending to be directx11
clever ibex
wont muck around with the padding for now, just setup arcdps to what it was before
astral cargo
this is how a lot of viruses and stuff work lol
clever ibex
at the end of the day nexus/arc are pretending to be directx11
ahh ok that makes sense why it gets flagged then
clever ibex
this is how a lot of viruses and stuff work lol
yeah haha
alright ill setup my stuff again and let you know if anything else happens
thanks for the help man!
clever ibex
nah all good the plugin is amazing!

Thank you! I've been having the same issue for the last 2 weeks and adding the folder to the list of threat exceptions was the solution. ❤️
