Very nice. If the speed is good I'll use it in my game. I'm using pure png right now, hehe.

Erm, how would you use it in your game? It's closed source xD

You released the algorithm.

With the algorithm, he could use the images encrypted by your program with his game.

This wasn't actually meant for preventing your graphics from being stolen xD It was more along the lines of hiding files inside images, which is the goal of the application xD

You have to understand Joost. He's trying to boast about coding procedures and all that crap, that he'll never show proof of, only to try to flame bait you or anyone else that will post here.

I'm sorry, I'm just too busy playing your game.

lul

If you were really trying to protect your graphics, you would force focus or minimze when focus is lost, and when in focus, generate a fake bmp to the clipboard when prtscn was pressed. It would foil most people if you did that and your images were encrypted.

but nothing is ever safe these days.


This is a cool program.

And prevents screenshots, which is retarded.

Ah, yes that is true

Well I mean, in reality, there's always a chance of your graphcis getting stolen, no matter what you do. Your best bet is to just encrypt the actual graphic files, at least that way people cannot edit them or steal them directly (also reducing chance of botting). Sure they can steal them by cutting out tile by tile on a map but almost no one will go to that extent just to steal a few tiles. And let's say they do steal them, once they release their game, you can just see that they stole them xD.

I don't see a point in it at all. They're gonna take them one way or another if they really want them. Why go through the trouble?

Personally, I would just do it because it's a simple extra layer of defence against both botting and ripping.

Um, because its a common practice to try to protect your data? For a commercial game their art costs them hundreds f thousands of dollars. End users like us just follow what we know, and what we know is that big games do go through some length to protect their graphics (these days textures for 3D models mostly).

It's like saying why add hacking/admin/editor checks because they can do it if they really want to anyway.

It's pointless to change the clipboard shit when someone tries to screenshot the game. It's just retarded.
