Update v1.0.1.0

Added net messages instead of SendLua, and changed GeoIP database. It's an easy swap back if you choose.

Just extract the zip, drop the ULXGeoIP-master folder in your /addons/ folder and reboot your server.

NOTE: If your server runs on Linux, make sure to rename the folder to something in all lowercase.

And never put stuff in the ulx\lua folder unless specifically told to by a ulx module developer.
(And then come tell us the bad developer telling you to, because, they should be using better practice)
/addons is virtualised for a reason.

Sure your can_target is set correctly? As far as I know, this runs fine in my environment.
EDIT: Try re-cloning now. I changed a bit of the code that may have been causing issues.

Fortunately the GeoIP database is easy to change; it just parses the JSON object to a Lua array and prints it out. I can go ahead and revert it to FreeGeoIP. Thank you for the heads up!

Please post your error here. I can't do much more unless I have the error text in front of me.
Last I checked, the addon was working fine.

freegeoip.net no longer exists/connects for me.
telize.com no longer allows free lookups.

FreeGeoIP's been kinda flaky last I checked. I think there's another API out there I could swap over to.
