False positive on Windows 11 ARM VM?
Posted: Wed Apr 20, 2022 3:58 pm
Hi there,
I've tried to search these boards but unfortunately got hundreds of results (mostly not relevant to my issue I'm afraid). After wading through multiple topics that didn't seem to mention the issue I was encountering, I figured i'd open a new topic as the message in my UT System Console suggested. Sorry if it *has* been asked before, I really couldn't find it with the search function. So here goes:
Environment:
- Macbook Pro 2020 (M1)
- Windows 11 Pro (ARM/AARCH64) virtual machine running inside Parallels Desktop with Parallels Tools deployed
- UT '99 is coming from Steam. (I have another copy somewhere in the depths of my backups but have been to lazy to dig it up, although I really should at least find the .ini sometime to a.) get my settings and mappings back, b.) have my nextgen key reloaded to get some old server stats back
)
I connected to a server running ACE to play StrangeLove and I keep getting kicked approximately every 60 to 90 seconds with the message: "You have been kicked from the server because ACE found an illegal hook". It says the offending file is "user32.dll" (C:/Windows/System32/USER32.dll), without any further details as to what the problem may be.
I have not modified that file myself and the Windows 11 installation was made about 2 weeks ago, so its quite fresh. Other than Red Alert (CnCnet) I haven't installed any other games on the machine.
Not running any cheating software. Just downloaded UT '99 from Steam, hit play and off I went. Or so I had hoped, heh.
If you need any information, analytics, logfiles (if so: where to find them?) or whatever; please let me know and I'll gladly supply. The Windows VM is the only way, to my knowledge, to play UT '99 on MacBook's so it'd suck if for whatever reason that would keep triggering anti-cheat. But if it does and can't be fixed then c'est la vie eh.
Either way, thanks in advance and please do let me know if you need any information. Hope to join ya'll on the servers soon without getting booted
