smuggly: Thanks I'll send MB the info and whitelist it Thanks
So i have Dashfaction and Pure faction 1.21 Is any one better than the other? The faction page says dashfaction.
Hey there - FactionFiles admin here. Just wanted to add that the reason MalwareBytes goes crazy on FactionFiles is because for some reason, MalwareBytes decided that the source of the certificate we use on FactionFiles is untrustworthy - which is completely and entirely wrong. I've handled probably 5 issues with people who couldn't access FactionFiles in the last 6 months or so, and in every case, MalwareBytes was the problem :P
On recommended versions of the game - Dash Faction (1.5.0) is the recommended version of the game. RF 1.21 is sorely lacking in basically every aspect and has a ton of problems, and Pure Faction suffers from some significant issues and hasn't been in development for almost 4 years. Dash Faction is actively updated and supported, and is by far the best way to play the game.
I'll leave some links here for your reference, but you will probably need to copy + paste them since this forum won't let me make them actual links for some reason :(

This is a quick link to the Dash Faction 1.5.0 installation instructions on the Red Faction Wiki - this will walk you through installing the patch and launching the game

This is a chart which highlights the main differences between the 2 standard official Red Faction versions (v1.20 and v1.21), and compares them to both Pure Faction and Dash Faction. You can use this to get a better idea of the benefits Dash Faction provides over the others.
If you run into any issues or have any further questions, feel free to send me a DM on the RF Community Discord server, or ask in one of the public channels (like #dashfaction-support or #redfaction). The community is active and very welcoming, so I'm sure someone would be happy to help you out :)
