Title: Anyone use globalban?
Post by: Bryantdl7 on November 10, 2014, 12:39:58 PM
I'm trying to set up ulx global ban and I have it working entirely except for converting my old ULX bans into their format. The creator doesnt exactly tell you how to use it other than a single line of commented text. Any ideas?

--Convert all Existing ULX Bans to ULXGlobalBan Database? (First Use Only, once done please set to false and restart server!)
--Please note the converter does not always function when not all the ban data is present for that player! So please make a backup and run through the ban list to make sure that the players are there!
Thats all they gave me lol

And my post I made on facepunch

Hate to bump an oldish post. But I don't see any step by step instructions on how to use the converter
here's the method I tried with no luck .-.

1. shut down server
2. copy in backed up ulx bans into ulib/bans.txt
3. edit gb_config.lua line 28 to GB_Convert = true;
4. Upload to my servers ftp
5. start my server

Any idiotic moves on my part?

Hello there,
while I do not use globalbans, I think you have to set GB_Convert to true once and restart your server.
Just make sure to actually disable it once all bans have been converted.

Thanks for the advice, but I have already tried that if you read my post on face punch. That didn't do it and I'm feeling like I'm missing a step nobody took the time to explain.
