    I changed my internet connection and been using wireless in a new place and all Overloud plugins manage to home call, I set the network connection on https only and blocked everything as usual. Hosts file is all in right settings. How the hell did it manage to get through is beyond me.

    I didnt need it before but now I need the r4e patcher, couldnt find it in my PC, probably never keep it. Searched at the sister's site but never found it, has it ever been posted there ?

    I think I'm using the newest release, they never caused me any problem before for Idk 5 years? bcs my internet blocked properly. I moved to a new place and there's no wired internet connection just yet. Using wireless and we all know it is weird in a way how the connection isn't direct but remote or something, it ignores my settings that only allow https connection. http connections went through somehow as the case with Overloud plugins. I checked my firewall, hosts file and everything is in order. The only way I could think of is stop the home calling from the plugin itself. I think R2R's releases aren't fully patched for homecalling, so r4e made the patch himself.

    oh I see now,
    Overloud registration is mac address based, so if you pick a licensing device mac address, then you cannot disable that network interface - this is a limitation for legit customers too (!)

    Hi all,

    Just installed Overloud Gem series and followed every step one by one.
    I've blocked overloud website from settings>screentime>Content & Privacy.
    Run keygen with crossover and generated file with my mac adress.
    But there is no Hidden file with the name "GEMS" .
    I've created folder manually but no luck.

    Do you know any solution for that?

    you need to open one overloud plugin, then the folder will show up automatically

    then you were in wrong Library folder,
    MacOS has two of them, one system Library and one user Library

    all you guys know very well that with over loud you need to block the host address using terminal or a free Mac app called hosts, same with a few others, once you do this then start installing what ever as instructions say
