How encrypt my project? - Raphael Rpg Games - 04-08-2013

Hi guys, the demo of my game's already finished, all prissy and everything, but I can not "encrypt" my project.
In fact, I can even encrypt it, but whenever I try to install it, there are several errors, missing files, and a lot of other things.

So I wanted to ask my colleagues aki, a way of being able to protect all the files of my game so that whoever plays it,
can only open the game executable, and nothing more. (Summarized: a lowered to play? then you'll just do that and nothing else.)

Any good idea to protect what you have, please tell me. Can password on folders, a form of concealment (Well secure)
or other method of encrypting games you know. Everything so that it arrives to your PC protected from all malicious gossips.

The RMSusano'o seemed to be really good, but it does not encrypt folders Graphics (most important for me) and no Audio
(okay, not the RMXP also encrypts the audio folder), but I want to be able to protect the most of my game, since 70% (or more) of
My game's graphics were created by me and others edited, so do not want any "wise guy" getting my graphics.

Please people, I count on you to help me!

I would suggest you use Zeriabs RPGMaker XP/VX Encrypter. It is able to encrypt your game and does a good job at that. A quick one too XD

(We have a link here on Save-Point as well, but this one should be the most recent version.)

If you want to encrypt your audio as well, you'll have to look for a diffrent solution tough. Right now, I remember this script here:

I can not tell you if it works or not, I can not remember. Maybe you should try it with a copy of your game =)

Anyway: Unless you are able to make a custom installer, any "wise guy" could still - in theory - get your files with a decription tool. End even if you manage that there still is a slight risk. All that can be locked can be opened as well, just remember that. Nothing will ever be 100% save, or commercial games would not have this problem ;)
You can try to make it as hard as you can, and you can remind users of the copyright and that's probably the savest thing to do =)

I made Z9 Protect Script. You can use it if you want :)

Link to thread

Enjoy!

Thank you guys, but unfortunately the system Zeriab failed.
Still, thank yamina-chan.

Narzew, can you explain better your system? I did not understand anything ...


RE: How encrypt my project? - Narzew - 04-09-2013

Ok, I will update instruction in some free time.


RE: How encrypt my project? - Raphael Rpg Games - 04-09-2013

When you have updated, let me know ok!? I really need to encrypt the game demo.


RE: How encrypt my project? - Narzew - 04-09-2013

New instruction :

Level 1 Protection:

1. Backup your project, and all steps do on the backup.
2. If you use all default RMXP folders leave this step. Otherwise, modify table in
profmake.rb and run profmake.rb to make profile.dat.
3. Copy Z9ProtectXPPacker.exe and generated profile.dat into your game folder.
4. Run Z9ProtectXPPacker.exe
5. Delete all files that don't have .ncp format from your Graphics & Audio directories
6. Paste content of script.rb after all scripts and before Main.
7. Copy Data folder to Encrypt/data folder
8. Run Encrypt/RGSSADPacker.exe and copy generated Game.rgssad into your game folder
9. Paste RGSS10XX.dll to your project
10. Change the Library in the ini file to RGSS10XX.dll (Library=RGSS10XX.dll)
11. Your game is now Step I protected!

Level 2 Protection (requires Level 1 protection)

1. Compress all encrypted game data into one executable (for ex with Molebox)
2. Download this : http://save-point.org/thread-4421.html
3. Pack the .exe with Exe Protect
4. Release ExeReader.exe and generated .pak file
5. Your game is 2-Step protected!
