MPQ "encryption" like in StarCraft

[Eluo]

Oh they use the same strategy?

[Everon Mightbane]

So, does this mean we can't open it in say MyWarcraftStudio, but WoW can still read it?

[Eluo]

Yes.
It doeas mean that
No MPQ editor can read the files properly anymore.

[schlumpf]

No MPQ editor can read the files properly anymore.

I'm tempted to correct you.

[Vel]

MPQ archives can be opened in the editor, but ...
removed (Listfile) - file. We will erase all files, path names, for example:

Before:
World  Azeroth  Elwynn  Trees  Elwynntree01.m2
World  Azeroth  Elwynn  Trees  Elwynntree0100.skin

after:
File000483.xxx
File000484.xxx
-----
Do I understand correctly?
-----
similar way to protect Wacraft3 maps.

[Eluo]

Yes. Only that befor and after is the other way around
If you used the program on it ,it deletes the listfile => the paths and filetypes won't get displayed anymore.

[Vel]

Yes. Only that befor and after is the other way around

fixed

I'm going to have to use this if I end up releasing any of my edits

[detonatorss]

and how to decrypt with this tool my own patch because i lost the decripted patch XD

[Steff]

You dont will
Start again form scratch. And even if there is a way. If we whould give it out then the tool whould be useless.
You can get the ADTs if you just change them a bit in noggit and save them again.

[Will]

This is v useful. thanks

Could it be that this is basically "fucking Addons" up ? In .MPQ Files, I mean.
