#### **Does BeamMP work on a cracked version of BeamNG?**
Expand All @@ -19,14 +19,12 @@ BeamMP does not work with cracked versions or outdated versions of BeamNG.drive.

The Client is not officially supported on Linux. However, you might be able to get it working by running the launcher in the same proton prefix as the game.

The Server builds can be found in the `BeamMP_Server.zip` download on the [Official Website](https://beammp.com/), or in the [releases tab on the Github](https://github.com/BeamMP/BeamMP-Server/releases). For building instructions see [here](https://github.com/BeamMP/BeamMP-Server/releases).

#### **Why is the launcher flagged by my antivirus or by Windows Defender**

In order to prevent Windows Defender from flagging a specific .exe, we need to buy a license which is very expensivr, therefor, BeamMP might get flagged by Windows Defender

Some antivirus may flag BeamMP as a virus beacause it does some interactions with network and other stuff. There are **no viruses** in any of the code. The code for the launcher, server, and lua client can be seen on our [GitHub](https://github.com/BeamMP/BeamMP-Server/releases).
