File in APK can unrar, file not archived

#1 Post by lyminh99 »

I find that problem is i built the apk file for android device and i can unrar from it, the file should be archive when i built for window not archived in there. I am afraid of the stealing material from there, is there anyway for this? I still don't know much about this, Thanks.

While it is possible (Create another distribution, copy the .RPA into the game directory, exclude the packaged files from inclusion in the build) it is not recommended due to the performance implications of double-packing files (I believe RPAs rely on fast random access and zipped files are not efficiently accessed). If it makes you feel any better, people can steal data from your .RPAs anyway, it's just slightly more work.

Yes, i know there is not absolute way to keep all the thing on the internet, but at least reduce it. Anyway, thanks. :)
