How to bypass virtual machine checks used in private servers?

Hey, I'm looking to find ways to bypass virtual machine checks used in private servers. Almost all private servers have it now and since I'm playing on mac with windows running as a VM via parallels I cannot play.

I'd say I'm doing this for legitimate reasons :D. I know different servers might have different checks but I'm just curious if its possible in general and some ideas on what I could look into.

I found this repo that has code that checks if environment is virtual or not: [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] it seems to mostly check for device names and some things in BIOS, I updated them all to bypass this check but it wasn't enough so I'm guessing silkroad clients use something smarter.

If anyone could give me some hints or something I'd appreciate it greatly. Once again I'm not trying to go against the rules of some servers and bot there or something. Just want to play the game.

I am also having the same exact issue running on mac using VM, been a year and i am trying to figure out the reason behind filtering wether the machine is running under VM is necessarily for pservers security or not and i assume its useless filter checkup feature that further makes future preventions such us mac users :(

I had the same issue, creating a second partition will solve that. Use Bootcamp.
