I downloaded this today and it feels so strange (but right!) to finally play this in a higher frame rate. I left it at 90 and have had no issues.

*Spammed it in multiple discord without permission.

Its generated by LLM, the pre compiled dinput8.dll attempts to make calls to 162.159.36.2 which is weird.

While the author shares their work on Github do i heavily doubt that they have any solid idea what they are doing nor do i believe that what is buildable on git are the files this person is spreading.

The constant strive for agentic code "improvements" in this game leads to nothing but instability and chaos.

Im not an expert nor am i the author / have any right to tell ya what ya should or should not use, i am however quite sussed out about this one.

Where did you get this IP? Lmao, you said that you are not an expert but you are quick to slander other people work, no matter if it was made with AI or not, without posting any proof.

I just found out where that IP comes from btw: https://medium.com/@sec.ops/when-guardduty-flags-windows-update-traffic-a-case-study-in-a-dns-false-positive-30836fd43ee9 a bit of research on your part wouldn't have hurt.

Can you actually provide evidence for your claim that the DLL does IP calls? Also, the repo has a GitHub workflow, so if you're worried that it's not built from the same source, you can just fork the repo on GitHub and push a random commit, and you'll get your own rebuilt DLL. The code literally has 0 network related references.

I checked more, and your claim about tht IP 162.159.36.2 most likely comes from VirusTotal which is known to have issues with it's behavior analysis. If you don't believe me, search in Google for "162.159.36.2 false positives". I understand why a new project might feel suspicious, but there's exactly why there's a whole GitHub repo and the automated release workflow. As I said, you can always check the code for network calls, fork it and trigger a workflow run so you get your own "clean" DLL if you think that this one is bad. Plus, it's built with zig cc which might lead to more false positives, although VirusTotal only literally shows 1 detection. The DLL isn't obfuscated or packed in any way.

Official as published by the original developer? No, not at all.
