All of the download links in the RC6 release post are dead.  The server appears to be down.

Did you try the links that say "(Mirror)"?

just downloaded RC6 and my computer thinks it contains a virus and deletes the .exe. 

i have Norton as my security and i think it says that the execute file trys to start a 'keystroke capture'

I downloaded the rc6 no sse from both of the mirrors and they both do it.

help guys

Can you post a screenshot?  Or a log from your antivirus program?

[Trivial Psychic]

I've had that problem with FSO builds myself.  I believe that if you click on the popup that Norton raises when it tells you about it, there is a way to tell it to ignore that program and even to undelete it.

Nothing in that screenshot says anything about a "keystroke capture".

The real advice here is to stop using ****ty software like Norton as your anti-virus solution.

You should find what you need under the "Restore & Options" tab.

So I played The Great Hunt, and I noticed that the mission progression is a bit weird. Not sure if that's how it was supposed to be in Hard Mode, or if it's because of the new build. What I did find strange was that the Ravana fires four beams, and it happened to me twice. Once on release and again on debug. I also noticed that disabling 3D sounds is ignored on debug builds head anims are choppy on debug but not on release build. Below is the log on PasteBin.

I've seen the Ravana fire eight beams on rare occasions in a Retail install, and four in any version of FSO.

[MatthTheGeek]

It's easy for a ship to fire several beams from the same turret if the mission is set to use fire-beam without previously locking the turrets in question.

AVs will sometimes spring up false positives because of how they look for viruses in files. If i remember right there's an option on one of the tabs to designate files you don't mind running.

This happens in retail too.  Two beams are fired from each turret, using the fire-beam sexp.  Presumably this is to ensure that both corvettes get severely damaged.

[Trivial Psychic]

Since one is supposed to escape, I had always thought that it would look far more plausible if the Ravana had fired its lighter, upper beams at the Actium and the heavier ones at the Lysander.

So, is that one going official? It's been there for quite some time.

Well, I'm still catching up in the forums.  After getting back from my vacation, work and moving into my house became my top priorities, and I still don't even have internet at my house yet (but I do have a triple-NAT setup going through my phone, MacBook, and router for the last couple nights, so I can finally browse HLP at home on my desktop).  I'll be checking what the status is here and see how much grumbling I've missed since I was gone.  Shouldn't be long now I hope.

With RC6, I'm experiencing a graphical bug where engine glows are visible, flickering, through ship models.
I am playing TopAce's Luyten Civil War campaign, and have seen this bug on multiple capital ships, including ships from FS2.
