So I just finish my project and build it. But when i open it in renpy it is still possible to edit it...
How can I lock my project (script) to be uneditable to 3rd side?

hmm sorry for bothering i fuger it.... adding this will fix it:
build.classify('game/**.png', 'archive')
build.classify('game/**.jpg', 'archive')
build.classify('game/**.rpy', 'archive')

Notice, that those are simple archives, and are easy to unpack (I created a tool for it in half an hour, or so... Before I found already existing tools).
Generally, it is impossible to completely protect an offline application against editing or extracting.

I suggest:
Code: Select all
build.classify('game/**.rpy', None)
build.classify('game/**.rpyc', 'archive')
rpy files are not needed in the build. It's still possible to convert rpyc files to rpy, and then edit them, but a little harder (not really easy for the average player).

What about .rpa files, such as with Demon Master Chris
I don't have the slightest clue how to read those. Trying results in the following:

.rpa is an archive format. Use extracting tools to read. I used the following tool to extract all of Fault Milestone.

Renpy has tools to obscure the source files. However, you'll find that people will find ways to access the source files to all games if they want to.
