Forum :: Client Editing :: how do i make its show people can't steal my files and art?

like when people download my game files to play my game how do i make it so they don't steal my art work and maps?? any ideas

Sorry, but people who have figured out ways to protect data aren't gonna share the knowledge, it's just common sense =P

The only thing that's open knowledge, is PECompact, which compresses gfx files so that they cannot be opened via resource hackers.

And it's only really worth it if you want to buy the latest versions each time they release a a new one to ensure that nobody can decompile your gfx.

You can't because this is a community where we share stuff and Sordie has stated that because you use other her software to emulate a game not made by YOU. YOU do NOT own anything and therefore anyone can login and take YOUR map files at ANY time and claim them as THEIRS. There is no ownership in Endless Online.

don't bother lol.. make your own game and then copyright it. then sue all the people that steal your shit. don't emulate a game, and bitch about your shit being stolen. think about how arvid feels about everyone using his graphics that he made. come on now.. give it a rest.

ps. don't bother compressing... just makes your game run slow.. and pisses off your players. people will steal.
