Out of curiosity, does this bug occur in your sourceport?

Seldom, but yes, it could happen.
The issue is already open.

FYI : The 32-bit builds are virused. Do not use!

According to VirusTotal, they set the following registry keys :
\\Registry\Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\Middle East Standard Time\TZI
\\Registry\Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\Greenland Standard Time\TZI
\\Registry\Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\Iran Standard Time\TZI
\\Registry\Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\Paraguay Standard Time\TZI
HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\TimeZoneInformation\ActiveTimeBias
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WBEM\CIMOM\ConfigValueEssNeedsLoading
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WBEM\CIMOM\List of event-active namespaces

Which, basically is Gen:Trojan.Heur.Hype.hx0@aC0Le3fi Trojan according to 13+ virus scanners. If you think it's a false-positive, ask yourself : Are you willing to risk it?

Out of these 13 scanners I only know BitDefender and GData. I've never heard of ALYac, Cybereason, FireEye, SecureAge APEX or Sangfor Engine Zero before nor do I know a single person who ever used one of these so I don't know how trustworthy they actually are.

All the more known virus scanners like ESET, Kaspersky, Malwarebytes or Windows say there is nothing wrong with the 32-bit exe of this source port. In my opinion this looks a lot like a false positive. I'm sure bibendovsky will be able to tell us more about this later.

Good to be skeptical, but that skepticism can equally be applied to thinking you know better than the scanner.

As you said, two of them you do respect do flag it. Now, if no scanners flagged it or even just one or two outliers, then I'd say it's probably conclusive. But, right now, put simply, it's not. Hence, proceed with caution unless you consider your computer expendable.

It seems his 32-bit build environment might not be as clean as he'd like to think it is and probably should recreate it making sure to use legitimate (read as non-warez) tools to ensure cleanliness for the end-users.

Is it just the 32-Bit builds or are the others effected as well?

Seems to be 32-Bit only. I still believe it's just another false positive.

I have the files from the source port. Where do I put them: what directory within the blake stone aliens of gold GOG directory? What process to run the bstone source port exe file? I also want to use the powerball command line parameter to activate cheats. How can I do these simultaneously? In order to use the HD upgrade from the source port I have to execute the bstone.exe file from the source port. But this bypasses the command line parameter I have in the config file and will not allow me to get the ching sound to activate cheats. The original non HD resolution is unbearable.

Put them in the same directory as your Blake Stone files and run the source port exe.

Bless you for this! Now I can play without a creeping headache!

Awesome that you still keep updating this.

I have one question though. Why exactly did you remove "Exclusive fullscreen mode"? Was there a problem using it?

- To simplify user experience.
- To make a switching to the desktop less painful, especially when full screen mode resolution smaller then the desktop's one.
