Changelog

  • Added support for Wind Waker Randomizer
  • Added support for The Legend of Zelda: A Missing Link
  • Re-implemented the loading of an external clones.lua file
  • Removed some development files that may have been causing a false-positive in anti-virus software

Virus false-positives

Apparently, windows defender started marking the installer as a Trojan, for some reason. After investigating and rebuilding the installer a few times, I narrowed it down to one or two old and unused development files that I had accidentally been including in the installer this whole time. After removing them, it seems the false-positive has gone away for now.

You can view these files for yourself by opening the m-overlay-x64.exe in previous releases as a zip archive. I have highlighted the files I believe were causing this issue below.

Culprits?

vjoy.lua

Source: https://pastebin.com/mFC9WPZH

This file is an old and incomplete version of something I was working on for another project of mine. It allowed the program to interact with dolphin through a virtual controller by interfacing with the program vJoy. It was completely inactive in m-overlay, and even if it were active, all it would do would print the version of vJoy installed on the system to the debug console.

wav.lua:

Source: https://pastebin.com/Sa6jp3bV

This file was the start of trying to decode a wav audio file and parse it for loop points. This would allow me to support seamlessly looping music files as requested in issue #48. Like the vjoy file, this file was also inactive, and if it had been used at all, all it would've done is allow the program to parse the header of a wav file.
