How to contact vanspace3D
WHILE YOU ARE THERE
While you are dealing with your settings, pre-empt some other issues that could arise from running VPNs and ADBlockers
VPNs
Some VPNs also provide a filter on a network level rather than a system level, which will block the network traffic. This may cause you issues when attempting to log into your software.
Using a VPN may produce connection issues, a greyed-out software screen, and unresponsive features once the software is loaded.
1️⃣ If you are using a VPN whilst running vanspace software, we recommend disabling it.
NETWORK-WIDE ADBLOCKERS
Adblockers such as PiHole that block at the Network level rather than the system level may produce connection issues, a greyed-out software screen, or unresponsive features once the software is loaded.
We recommend creating an exclusion to vanspace and unity within the settings at the very least, although disabling will be more beneficial to troubleshoot.
1️⃣ Create an Advanced Rule to allow the following URL's within the Adblocker
unity3d.com
vanspace3d.hopto.org
