all my Overloud plugins have become trial versions, I installed the latest version of R2R plugins, added the hosts and used the registrar reg according to the instructions, I do not understand why suddenly all the Overloud plugins have become trial versions, I do not know if you have also encountered the same problem, seek solutions.

 

Hi @martjay, uninstall everything and then follow the instructions below:


If a host patch is available, use it first.

Overloud True RSA3072 KeyGen Release

Always use latest version of the keygen.
Later keygen may activate additional content.

[Tips]
Backuping user presets :
WIN - %APPDATA%\Overloud\(ProductName)\factory-presets.db
MAC - ~/Library/Application Support/Overloud/(ProductName)/factory-presets.db

Clean up by deleting (Hidden folder)
WIN - %APPDATA%\Overloud\(ProductName)\
%PROGRAMDATA%\Overloud\(ProductName)\
MAC - ~/Library/Application Support/Overloud/(ProductName)/
/Library/Application Support/Overloud/(ProductName)/

[Windows]
1.Uninstall previous versions.
2.Install.
3.Block the access to "www.overloud.com".
Or you will get unregistered by home calling.
*.cmd hosts patch is included.
4.Run our keygen, select product and click "Reg (Win)".
5.Enjoy!

[MacOSX]
1.Uninstall previous versions.
2.Install.
3.Block the access to "www.overloud.com".
Or you will get unregistered by home calling.
4.Check the MAC-Address of your computer.
Google "macosx mac address" for more info.
5.Run our keygen on Windows.
Input the MAC-Address to our keygen.
Input 0-9, (A-F or a-f) only.
If your MAC Address is 01:23:45:67:89:ab,
input 0123456789ab or 0123456789AB.
Click "Gen (Mac)", *.ol2 license will be generate to desktop.
6.Copy *.ol2 to
GEM Series : ~/Library/Application Support/Overloud/GEMS/
REmatrix : ~/Library/Application Support/Overloud/REmatrix/
TH3 : ~/Library/Application Support/Overloud/TH3/
TH-U : ~/Library/Application Support/Overloud/TH-U/
7.Enjoy!

I've reinstalled it, according to the instructions, and it's still the trial version

 

When you uninstalled, did you also remove all trace from the registry?

 

yes

 

and you removed all trace specifically from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Wow6432Node too?


what O/S do you have?

 

Have you checked your host file if there really is a line that says something like "0.0.0.1 www.overloud.com"?

It sounds like you have either not fully deleted all of the files from the old installs, or the plug-ins somehow manage to call home.

 

Windows

1.) Use the uninstaller:
C:\Program Files\Overloud

2.) Delete: (Hidden folder)
C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\Overloud

3.) Delete: (Hidden folder)
C:\ProgramData\Overloud

4.) Delete:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\Overloud

5.) Restart PC

6.) Disable Windows virus software

7.) Carefully read the enclosed NFO / Installation Guide NFO and reinstall

 

Well, changing mac address can cause this. Like, you were using Wifi and now you're using Lan or vice-versa.
I faced this and so I know.
Sometimes, disabling and re-enabling Network drivers can actually delete the contents of the hosts file and that's when Overloud plugins can call home and make the plugins go in demo mode.
If you want, i can share my host file as well.

I did delete the registry file, I just reinstalled the software and restarted the computer, at first I did not connect to the VPN, I used the registrar to register the plug-in successfully, but when I connected to the VPN once my plug-in became a trial version again, I feel that it is likely that the VPN caused the plug-in to fail, I do not know if anyone can solve this problem.

 

Hallo @martjay, when you click on this web page: www.overloud.com
the following should appear: The website is not reachable www.overloud.com has refused the connection.

If you make changes in the registry you have to restart your computer, only when you boot up will changes in the registry take effect.

1.) So uninstall everything cleanly and delete all file remnants.
2.) Restart your PC
3) switch off antivirus software
4) Run Host Patch - Install Software - Use Keygen
5) Don't go to the internet, but test the plugins in your DAW if they are all registered.
6) Then go to the internet with or without VPN

P.S: Since when do you have this problem, have you changed anything?

 

I reinstalled the software again, following your method, this time I didn't connect to VPN and all the plugins were registered successfully, I'm not sure if it will be a trial version again next time, thanks anyway~

Here too, seems to be an unfixed timebomb.

 

Not here, maybe one of the later installs broke everything, like Audiothing does, installing their free plugin will brake all other plugins, even if you reinstall.

 

I'm not really sure what I did, does it have anything to do with connecting to a VPN?

 

When I insert a certain overloud plugin, there will be a longer wait than the normal activated plugin, at this time I see that all the .ol2 activation files in the folder C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\Overloud\GEMS are automatically deleted, at this time you then insert the plugin that shows activated, it will All become trial versions, unless you put the backup .ol2 file into the folder again, I'm pretty sure this should be the R2R version without the cracked timeboom.

This was TeamCubeadooby's tip when I asked him for help, and indeed it was exactly what he said, that the overloud hack was incomplete.

 

you went online and all the generated licenses became invalidated,
redo the activation process for every single plugin and it'll work again

 

I hope someone can crack overloud's recall
