One of main reasons is to avoid unauthorized code mods, as i already have my hands full with json modding support.
Plus some stuff there is used in other games, including commercial, so i would rather keep code hidden.

Generally, if person able to reverse it, they are able to write such code themselves. And if they want to learn/steal, well, they wouldn't be able to reverse.
Technically it is automatic 3kb python script what adds quite simple protection. rpyc files are valid, no dirty tricks like buffer overflows/invalid data relying on specific renpy version.
Not really a proper hackme/crackme challenge, but still it's fun to see how people poke it, maybe will add new layer or two next update

Well, as you mention, you provide a modding framework so not much is really needed with the code, just curious. Still, there's not much point in protecting code at that early stage.

Also, modification might need other stuff than json and images to work. Until you provide with a programmatic framework, not much is gonna happen in that sense (fx, extension of already available stuff).

We talked about new gynoids in your game thread btw. I am working a bit on some ideas.

if you are using 091 version , cause its old and dont work with all the games anymore
at least you are on right thread, now go to page one, and grab the updated ones, there are 2 old and new
and read instructions which to use where.

Another major reason is i find it entertaining to test if this or that protection will stop people and for how long

As for opening code to modders, it will happen eventually, once i'm sure game core is stable enough. So protection is very simple, just to deter random lurkers. Wouldn't stop anyone determined.

Anyway, this is really off-topic for this thread, so if you have questions/notes about game it is better to move discussion to game thread, discord or dm.

Very interesting. Commercial code - your personal code from other commercial projects?

Yes, all code is mine, nothing amazing there.
Just to clarify, i meant some of code in my game is my reused code i did for other people's games. While it is not under NDA or anything, still i don't think it is nice to freely share it as is. Hence is simple rpyc protection. Once game is more or less stable, i will clean things up and probably will open source it some day.

I was just wondering, I thought there was really proprietary code that is used in some commercial project. The power of the code in this game is disproportionately large in relation to the content.

True, content is lacking at the moment.
I guess i also use this game as some sort of field experiment. Testing new techniques, methods, RenPy obscure features, how to combine my old code into something new, how to improve it to be more flexible and robust etc.
Already learned something new about RenPy internals and some stuff on web/android, plus fixed some of my own bugs.

Accidentally used the wrong version. Would probably be a good idea to check rpatool's return code before continuing to delete the archive. Luckily, I forgot to delete the download and didn't have to re-download anything.

  Remove RPA archives after extraction?
    Enter (y/n): y
  + RPA archives will be deleted

I tried to solve this problem quickly, but it didn't work out. I'll see what I can do when I have more time. Still, this is not a critical problem.

than - its on your files
i downloaded the game and tried - was working
try another location than the torrent folder
run as admin etc

Thank you very much for the tools you provided. I encountered two problems.

The first is the console unren, which cannot unpack the RPA file with modified header information.

Then there is pyqt unren. After I use pyinstaller to package it as exe, a bug occurs, which seems to lack the "future" module. This must not be a problem with your code, but if you can, can you tell me how you package it?

Regarding the first error, I think the wrong version of the tool was used. As I recently found out, it turns out that the tool marked "new" is not supported by at least version 7.4.6, but due to the distraction to other problems and tasks, I forgot to clarify this information in the instructions, which I'm going to fix now. As for the second part, I haven't packed this version of the tool into an executable file for a long time. Moreover, I myself did not write any lines with the future module. Most likely, python itself (or even PyCharm) added these lines. I suggest removing them and trying to reassemble everything. Apart from PyQt, I don't seem to have used any other additional libraries.

I am trying to unren 3 rpa files and none of these programs work... am I doing something wrong? I am pretty sure its renpy 7.3.5 the version. I have attached one of files... can someone tell me if they manage to unarchive it!

I need the name of the game itself, one archive is not enough to solve the issue, although I roughly understand what the problem is.
