Sftp acces not even recognizing my bisect server
ive filled out all boxes in the mod managers sftp minus path with correct password and the box just stays in loading position forever, ive got all the info correctly put in and bisect wont answer my ticket in a reasonable time manner even on high priority.

Can you show a screenshot of SMM?
umm that would be sharing my server credentials
to a public discord chat
The password is hidden, so the only thing you'd be showing is the username
this is all u need to see other info is all put in based on bisect video
thats the loading wheel
my port is correct
my user name is correct
i removes the sftp:// and the port from host
that comes from the bisect panel
and have the correct password with its special characters
the whell never stops spinning
And SFTP selected in the dropdown on the left?
yup
on simple mode
im wondering if this is a issue on bisects enf
end*
i also made sure my server isnt running like the bisect video does
I think the infinite loading is actually an error that doesn't get shown, wait a moment
ok
why does this one ping my defender
and the main app doesnt
Because it's not signed
ye why
Because I just built it on my machine, not on CI
Only the CI can sign, as part of the terms of the code signing we use
u have to understand that anyone who understands how the signing works knows its rly hard to trust a unkown publisher. ik its a signature of something being particulary malicous. but its still a very concerning thing for me to be able to trust. ive dealt with many hackers before
this could easily be a trojan and im not personally willing to risk that. sry even if ur intentions are good
Well, I'm the developer of SMM, if that helps you
You can also put it into virustotal if you want
yes if u can do that that would be fine
And you say it's hard to trust an unknown publisher, but all the mods you're installing are unsigned, they are checked on virustotal though
And pretty much all open source code is unsigned
Because "proper" code signing certificates, which allow you to sign anything, cost a lot
and yes that 100% lends cred but we've all heard the horror stories of ppl in high places. im not tryna create something outta nothing i just dont trust things out the gate
100%
i get that
i just always and extra cautious downloading anythign without a publisher
ive been hacked bad when i was young
i learned from that
this is also 100% valid but they do not as for priviliages within my system
Neither does SMM
ill run it through virus total rq
if nothing pings ill try it
I've uploaded it already
ive had bad expierences
gotta understand my skepticism
Mh, AI antiviruses again
sry fam imma have to slug through bisect support on this one if i cant run mods on my server so be it.
Solution
Welp, suit yourself then
remember that mods contain basically arbitrary C++ code; running any mods at all is a bigger risk than launching SMM. good luck with their support
XDD if u believe that ur highly misinformed the point of a publisher according to windows when it was implimented is it is a way to verify a base programs code couldnt escape the OS. if a virus made it past the publishers name stage it could still mess ur system up but would always be fixable with a simple drive wipe and bios reinstall. The creator of the idea behind a publishers name through windows defender, stated himself if u run a program with no publisher windows cannot guarentee that the code itself from said program cannot escape the os. meaning way More dangerous than "running any mods at all". and like i said while this is not indicitive of a virus in itself or even malicious intent. it is still a risk for any individual, you must always pick ur battles and never bite off more than u can chew. i can fix a virus contained within a OS, however i do not have the skill to fix one that breaks outside of it. im simply taking precautions for myself the fact that it pinged on virus total is very suspect, i simple launcher shouldnt be pinging Trapmine even with a unknown publisher. you should look into your dev fam
That's not at all what the code signing is
it is i can provide u resources from the creator himself
All that code signing is is saying "this code is definitely coming from this author"
It has nothing to do with what the code is doing
ur highly misinformed
Use code signing for added control and protection with App Control
Code signing can be used to better control Win32 app authorization and add protection for your App Control for Business policies.
Code signing provides some important benefits to application security features like App Control for Business. First, it allows the system to cryptographically verify that a file hasn't been tampered with since it was signed and before any code is allowed to run. Second, it associates the file with a real-world identity, such as a company or an individual developer.And the Trapmine antivirus is one of those garbage new "antiviruses" which just throw AI on the label and say "look at our product", but you can even throw windows into them and they will mark it as a virus, because it's all AI garbage And what does "escape the OS" even mean? Maybe what you're thinking of is that windows requires EV signatures for kernel level drivers, since they get kernel level priviledges, windows wants to ensure that they are linked to some publisher, so someone's name and reputation is on the line if that kernel level driver is malicious But that's not the case here
