That's a false positive.

The "HEUR" is an indicator of a "heuristic" detection, which searches for patterns which commonly show up in virus/malware code. It's a good system to increase detection rates, but also often causes this kind of issue with a non-infected file appearing to be malware.

The "Generic" is another clue - it isn't detecting a specific virus, but a possible generic section of code which looks a bit off.

Please scroll down a bit on the list of threads and see that this issue has already been discussed and solved in two previous identical situations.

The Lead Developer has stated that the Unreal Engine setup executable which sets off Kaspersky is something out of Gamecrafterteam's control; they don't make the engine which the game runs on.

The "threat" has only been detected on Kaspersky, no other ant-virus programs have flagged it.

Ran it through Norton and M.B.
It's fine.
