Explain for many! Leak VCMod impossible! If you manage to play with this script, then after a few minutes it will not work, block access.To play with this script, 1 way is to buy!

freemmaann like to protect his addon , so he ban every leaked version so you can't get it
the best way to get it is to buy it , if you start a gmod server you should have a minimum of money to start with to buy some addons
and your english is broken :lol:

How exactly does his DRM work? I'mrunning it on two servers (on the same dedi) but does it whitelist the original IP that it uses? Doesn't allow it to run actively on two different IP's? (We actually bought it but my experiences don't match up with the OP).

I mean, If someone was to send it to there friend they would be able to use it for a long time I think. Until it slips up somewhere then they'll get restricted access. Maybe anyway, I'm not sure ask freemmaann

Once i receive enough posts, I'll be sure to give him a shout. I'm not really one to use and/or share scripts due to the risks of the potential backdoor and what not (though, they're easy to find unless they're obfuscated). In my time running VCMod, I've had some issues initializing the script upon starting the server but a simple reboot fixed that without any troubles. I've detected zero signs of a DRM in action and I'm going to search the files now to see if there's any DRM system in place.

I'm not sure if he uses such as a DRM. He has a panel i'm presuming where he can simply just go a block peoples steamID's (original purchaser who leaked) which causes everyone using that version to stop working.

Very, very cheeky. I love the idea of that and might consider makingsuch a system.

All you guys had to do is ask me. :3

Yes, VCMod does have DRM, but it is merely a side feature of the Auto Updater system, which is made solely to help my clients.

VCMod DRM does not force you to jump hoops to make it work, you do not need to whitelist your servers or only use it on a single server.

I can manually block anyones copy if I find something malicious, but VCMod has automated leak detection aswel. It works in multiple ways, simplest one being checking the copies recent activity for any issues or seeing a huge spike in activity of unrelated servers, etc.

Once it suspects a copy as leaked it notifies me by email, blocks the copy on my server then blocks you from downloading it from GMS (removes access). Once this happens the local copy you have is nothing more than digital paperweight.

Its decision can be overwritten by me at any time and even if it is blocked, if I get proof that it was not buyers fault I can even still allow him to use the copies by whitelisting his servers, even tho the copy is blocked.

I can also blacklist IP ranges from running any VCMod or blacklist single server per copy (if buyer requests me to).

Nothing too fancy, but it gets the job done.

This has been fixed for good since yesterday. VCMod was getting a bit too massive, so had to configure the servers to properly handle the loads. I am also collecting info of each clientside VCMod API handshake failure. So I can see whats going on.

Tip: disable the damn "Parental restrictions"..

Freemmaann comes to save the day! Very informative post. Works in a pretty interesting way,did you make the DRM yourself?

I did, yes, as a side feature of the Auto Updater, tho. You even debating if its there or not shows that I've made it non-obtrusive enough, heh.
