how can i made this protects like this 2 maps

[omnimancer]

Hide the war3map.j file in the scripts folder, replace names of variables with random alphanumerical stuff.
There isn't much ways to do it manually I believe. At least it's gonna take very long.

Ok from that that you have given us

Yes, XVI32 will work. Just make sure that when you open it, you go to the Tools menu at the top, and turn Overwrite on (a check mark will appear next to it).
Open the map with XVI, go to the 521st byte, and change it to 00. Do this for bytes 521-524. You can find the bytes by going to the top, choosing the Address menu, choosing Goto, and putting 521 into the box.

When you put it in a map and save after that you can open it again type random keys and it will open that is not cool
Can you give something more?

I dunno. I'm not very good at protecting maps. I know enough of the system to beat it, but not enough to properly implement it.

Ozzapoo knows more but I don't think he will give it up so easy :/
Could you Ozzapoo give out something more

[Ozzapoo]

What more do you want? That is the simplest and most doable form of mpq protection. Other forms of protection involve creating programs which scramble an mpq. Such programs can take time and effort to make, and are easily crackable by ACP3.

If you want jass protection, vampirism fire is a very good example of cunning jass protection, if you can crack it. I won't tell you all that much about protections though.

Yess it works! it cannot be openable by MPQmaster! thx senethior now my question how will i unprotect this thing???

[Senethior459]

Just change them back to MPQ, like they were. And I think that's bytes 512-514, not 521-524, sorry.
