Decache Protector

Postby Dex » Wed Dec 19, 07 8:41 pm

A tool that protects a file against decaching. Could this be made?

Like: I create DXMP_ExtraPorn, and people auto download it and they can't decache somehow, or that the decached thing won't work or something...?

Is this possible to be made?

You can code a class which matches the server's IP with yours. Your IP shouldn't be a variable, but hard-coded into the script. Then you should embed the class into the map package and protect the map.

That isn't the best solution though, as it will remain decacheable.

Create a class that uses a config variable, hard code the variable, but you can still spread the map and use it when your own IP changes. Just give the value of the variable to other people so they can use it as well.

That's how JimBowen did it with his mods, before he published them.
