TGE Encryption

by Wade Spring · in Torque Game Engine · 11/18/2006 (11:19 am) · 2 replies

I am trying to obtain permission from another company to use some of their products in the creation of a home-made game. In order to determine this, I am required to provide information about the level and type of encrytion that will be used. I am currently looking at using the TGE, but I am unable to find any details about the encrytion without having to first log in. I cannot afford to purchase the Engine at this time, but certainly intend to do so as soon as my project begins to approach the appropriate phase. I would appreciate any information that anyone can provide with regards to general encrytion information.

There is no built-in encryption that I know of. However, a zip encryption resource is available for TGE licensees that will allow you to add encryption to Torque. There may be others as well. Zip encryption has its weaknesses, but may suit your needs.

I recall seeing a resource for adding TEA (Tiny Encryption Algorithm, believed to be as secure as IDEA: www.simonshepherd.supanet.com/tea.htm). Plus, if you purchase the engine, you'll have the full source code and you'll be able to integrate any encryption library you want with a couple hours' work.
