Hey guys, I have finally finished my new DRM. Same name, same familiar activation process, improved looks, security, reliability, and certainly less tickets.
The new DRM is currently in BETA TESTING - this means that you may encounter problems with it. I have done my best to test every aspect of it, but nothing is bug free until you set it off into the wild.
I will be instructing customers who have problems with the current DRM to switch to the new one.
The old DRM will be shut down on the 1st August 2021. Your scripts will stop working if you do not update the script in time. You have been warned!
This date may be pushed back depending on bugs, reliability, etc.
The DRM uses a module (.dll file) in garrysmod/lua/bin/ which will require manual installation from you.
Some server hosts will not allow you to upload .dll files to your Garry's Mod server. In this case, first please consider getting a new host - this shows their security is somewhat lacking, and secondly please send me a ticket and I will get in touch with the host to add the DRM to their mod manager.
Updates will kind of suck with the new DRM. It will not auto update, like the old DRM does. This is because auto updating a binary DLL is an absolutely terrible idea for security and there's no way in hell I would ever do that.
Unfortunately, this means that updating the module might get annoying. As in, old versions may break if certain changes are made to the backend servers. I will do my absolute best to ensure this doesn't happen; hopefully the module will actually never need to be updated at all.
However, I would expect maybe one or two of these updates to occur during the beta period. I will let you know before these happen and your server will tell you if this is the case.
This will NOT work. Please uninstall the old DRM before installing the new one.
The old server panel ( http://servers.billy.enterprises/ ) will be redirected to the new panel, https://xeon.network/servers once finished.
This doesn't affect you. Nothing will happen to your scripts on the 1st August.
However, I will be releasing some new stuff for you guys down the line, so stay tuned.
