@swavenation How exactly is that the channel owner's problem? People can and will always comment whatever the hell they want. If anyone deserves to be penalized it's the person who wrote that comment.

 

well simple, youtube makes it his problem by, instead of turning the comments off, deleting the video and giving him a strike, very ridiculous but true

 

They changed their stance on it, yes, maybe because it involved cracks? It seems that IL greatly increased their efforts against pirates and crack teams these days. They must have more legal resources to throw at the problem and are sick of people cracking it.

Almost can't bear reading their bugfix lists anymore.

But still they're always good for a laugh.
"FL VSTi: the plugin is blacklisted in Cubase 9.5"
"New version available message is shown on every start of FL Studio" lol

 

you could have to fix your plugin browser window after the update
i only seen it was messed up after i reskined it
removing snap 3 did the job and is now working as it should

 

Would u rather the alternative? that they didn't bugfix, can't see how its a bad thing?

No, I rather would have way less updates with way less bugs

 

macOS: FL Studio 20.0.5 [build 91] - 3 Oct 2018

Bugfixes unknowing

 

With the new beta update of FL Studio 20.0.99 Beta 1
Image-line have now implemented vmprotect back into fl studio and this time round they have
fully incoded the .dll,
What this now meens for beta testers and the end user that owns fl studio is an x2 slower start up time
a 3% increase in cpu and a few mb added just to make sure eveything is worce than before.

Before vmp3


After vmp3

 

I haven't noticed any difference in performance. What do u mean 'everything is worse than before'?

 

I compared the 2 versions (bar 11 newstuff) and don't see a difference. Momo in your pic u dont have voices playing what was running?

I just loaded in my kontakt template and pressed play,
no plugins were been played in the test and no libs added into kontakt,just fl running a blank project,
taught that was the best way to compare them seen as its hard to take a snap-shot of the exact same time in a project.
Its takes x2 time longer to startup, uses more cpu and ram so yep would say eveything is worce now.
There is also still no way users can make changes to the gui or any tools they were taking about adding
in the beta so thats a downer as well.
-----
update :
Just checked the file after tea and its only the rcdata they locked down again
so we can't skin it. just goes to show how bad vmp is when added to any program.

I tested an actual project and show less RAM being used in 20.0.99. Also exact same CPU being used and as using a stopwatch on my phone, 7.6 seconds to load in both versions. So my results are not the same as yours. And your methods just don't seem the way to test IMO. U should try again and do it properly.

 

Pretty different outcomes there you two. @pingu have you used third party plugs that use samples like @momo did with Kontakt as well? What plugins did you use?

 

I also counted on my fingers
what is an ancient tradition at startup ,so unless some of my fingers droped off
Fl takes x2 times longer to start up,
Will try the cpu and start-up again when its out of beta cause i deleted it,

 

Hey momo, 20.0.5 Worked fine for me but I accidentally turned on the internet and it reverted to demo. So I deleted the image line folder in application support and the fl studio app. I Installed everything again with the internet off and followed the instructions but it still reverts to demo without connecting to the internet. Am I doing something stupid? Even tried it with 20.0.4.57
