Help me with Protecting a map

[Lifee00]

Hi i want to have better protection than Vexorian's map Optimizer.

Can any1 help ?

Do you want a protection or an anti cheat?
Anti cheat makes it so people cant cheat in your map.
Protection is like making it so it doesnt open and such.

Vexorian's Map Optimizer.
Spazzler.
Heavy Locker.
Widgetizer.

And...in case you're asking for "the best":

You can't find 'the best'. No matter what you use, some people will still be able to edit your map without any trouble.
Vexorian' is good for optimisation. It reduces file size, but is no trouble to pass (most of deprotection tools will make your map editable). But it protects from noobs\plain edits. So that's what I use for maps that I edit.
Spazzler is more 'heavy' tool. Better protection, not as small map, and maybe a bit longer loading time. But makes the map un-editable for most of users.
Heavy locker - one of the first programs of this kind that I know of, basically similar to vexorian's, except other priorities.
Widgetiser - converts object data files into widgets (text files). This results in a bit bigger filesize, but you can leave the map 'as-is': if someone will open it in World Editor, they will see no object data. So most likely they'll say 'wtf' and leave your map alone. Unfortunally there is dewidgetiser too.

Well if it is possibly to make a protection that no1 will even can open/edit/hack/ my map would be great.

If no so anti-cheats are needed too ^^,

There is no ultimate protection (THERE IS! DON'T MAKE MAPS!!!! XD). As long Wc3 can read it, we'll be able to open it.

One of our ex-mods told us a way to never get our maps cheated. It's simple, really. Just open up your map and delete everything that's in it.

As people have said before, as long as wc3 can read the map and as long as you can play that map on wc3, that map can be cheated.

If you delete everything, wouldnt that map be unplayable?
which kinda defeats the purpose of trying to protect it? O.o
(or were u being sarcastic/funny/ironic)

[UndeadxAssassin]

as long as wc3 can read the map and as long as you can play that map on wc3, that map can be cheated.

Besides, no one wants to hack a map that they can't play, anyway.

1) make the map so un-popular no one will ask for it..
2) make the map so easy there is no need cheating it
3) make all the command built in so there will be no need cheating it
4) make it open source just for the irony
5) write in the description "DONT HACK MY MAP PLEASE!!!!!!!"
6) protect it yourself using a hammer!
