HELP! Built my project, but...

by Gabriel Pang · in Torque Game Builder · 02/12/2007 (10:57 am) · 4 replies

I've finished my game and tried to build a version with the TGB Packaging Utility. Everything seems ok as the tutorial wrote, but after it was built I found all my graphics (the pngs) just placed in [MyGame]\data\images. Is there any way to pack the files so that the player won't see it?

Thanks a lot!
P.S. I'm using TGB v.1.1.3

You will need to either own TGB Pro and add an encryption or use something like Molebox to package your media in an ecrypted way for delivery :-)

Marc,

Thanks for the reply!

> You will need to either own TGB Pro and add an encryption
Do you mean to modify the source code by myself?

> use something like Molebox
And I'm now looking into Molebox. Seems like a good solution. =)

Modify the sources: Yes
Yourself: Only partially. There is a encryption resource you just can drop into the project and recompile TGB and it is in. (reason it is not in, is that US laws forbid export of ecryption?!)
You then just would need to push your media through that and do the loading accordingly by first unencrypt your media and then load that one.


Yes, Molebox is a very good way to protect the own media unless you use a "shareware - licensing" system with hardware based system locks anyway which protects your whole app, then you do not need it (at least I think)

Marc,

Thanks again! You are really helpful! =)

I'm studying the source code of TGB. Is there any guide about adding the encryption resource on the net or TGB forum?
