[Closed] Encrypt a script

Hey there

We all know that encryptScript function is a joke and it is easily crackable.
What do we have left? Does HardwarelockID is trustable? Can it be easily crackable as well?

I was thinking of a launch.ms that starts a *.exe file that creates the real script.ms file (somewhere in the computer) with the code in it, then launch the script.ms, and finaly delete the script.ms
What do you think of that?

Any other method that could not be cracked within 5 minutes with a script?

it’s clear code , just another form
Confused is the most important step , the best encrypt is a network script , same calculation calculate on server
think about that , max had been cracked , how ms can’t be cracked .

So much has been said on this subject that there is nothing more to add.
I can only repeat what I said many times:

If you are writing a program using a script language, it is best not to encrypt it at all. Use it to advertise your skills and professional level to find good jobs and offers in the future.

If you want to protect your code as your intellectual property, write c ++ programs. But in this case, be prepared to protect your right to use fragments of code taken from other resources, including open source.

AEI: network script? Doesn’t change anything if the script is on a ftp or not: you need to store the logins in the script therefore is accessible.

DenisT: C and C++ cannot be cracked easily? I can write a C or C++ that creates a ms file. The only tricky part is for max to launch the script.ms

It can be hacked of course, but not easy. It takes time to crack the C ++ code, and time is money. Usually only expensive tools make sense to crack.

For example, most of my tools are 90-95% scripts (MaxScript for MAX and Python for Maya). It is much faster to develop tools using scripts. But 5-10% of the code is in the c ++ plugin (algorithms, tricks, hacks, etc.). This is a piece of my code that I don’t want to share for some reason.

network not mean put ms on net , but use network to calculate , such as js or like what a network app does , only ms can’t work , you can use login if commercial
