Camouflaging Lua Code

[NeeP]

Anyways, I think this doesn't really help the community. I always like to edit/change existing scripts to my needs. Adjusting the waits for the npc chats, using another dp spot sometimes when it has the old depositer, updating stuff and so on. Or I copy & learn from existing "hard parts" like going through tp's, using levers or anything else special. People can learn by looking on the code. This "obfuscation" which now some scripters use makes that impossible...

Could someone explain what should I put in these:

lua code:

buff=""

for v=1,string.len(script) do --Convert our string into a hex string.

file=io.open('encrypted.txt','w') --Output our bytecode into ascii format to encrypted.txt

I am new and I do not understand it at all ;/ The only thing that I understand is that I have to paste my script where is "Content"

If you read this thread you'd know that this method of obfuscation is rather weak, but anyways, you don't need to do anything with that bit, just run the script and it will output your obfuscated string.

I have read the thread and many others about this but this is the only one that is working. If you don't mind I would love if you helped me with encrypting/obfuscating/coding my scripts.

Same here, still can't get it working I can get the bytecode from working script, but code after obfuscating isn't working

I'm getting something like that:
Error: attempt to call method 'isOpen' (a nil value)


It's the error when i'm trying to obfuscate script without obfuscating locals, when the script is fully obfuscated it works well? Any tips? I want to leave locals visible to be able configuring the script like backpack names etc.

you cant have mixed script like that, doesnt work

have a separate file for configuration and just dofile it on the main obfuscated file

and why would you want to obfuscate your labels funcs? if it were your library of custom functions it would be reasonable , but...

Someone should write a guide for this =) step by step , i'm really intrested.

I got it, soon i guess. I filled buff = "" with buff = "Derp.lua" and ran the script. I got a txt file starting with derp.lua then alot of numbers.

What should i do with it then? =) loadstring? and i got another script with Code= in beginning how does it work ?
