The zip file referenced in https://github.com/carbonengine/trinity/issues/21#issuecomme... is probably malware, per https://github.com/carbonengine/trinity/issues/21#issuecomme... . I didn't sit there and decompile the thing but even just running "strings" on the .exe is more evidence in favor of that, it has things like domain names that a "driver" shouldn't have. Whether or not "procedural" is part of the scam or a legit victim, I have not much opinion.

Already used (sounds like, successfully) by the usual GitHub phishing campaigns: > found a workaround for the shader compilation bug that keeps the mesh from vanishing. I attached the fix here. https://github.com/carbonengine/trinity/issues/21 (Microsoft should stop it with the "This is not the web page you are looking for." where people specifically came looking to learn whether something was administratively blocked - or whether it is no longer available by choice of the affected party.)
