If he did so, he should also publicily disclose the source code and license information of the PackSquash version he uses, because the PackSquash AGPL 3.0 license requires so, and I don't definitely see any of that in that page (although I didn't pay for the plugin or reached him out to confirm this). I'm planning on releasing a new version with lots of improvements and changes soon, but it's pretty usable right now.Ĭlick to expand.I don't think he uses my tool within his program.

But you should think about whether you want to make life harder for players, or even yourself, if it turns out that future Minecraft versions change how they parse ZIP files or your only copy of a resource pack is the 'protected' ZIP fileīy the way, thank you for mentioning my tool! I feel honored it's interesting for some of you. That's the whole point of the 'protection', of course. Vanilla Minecraft doesn't support any proper encryption mechanism, so this obfuscation is weak by design. Also, from a technical standpoint, it was interesting for me to make something like that possible. However, I left the option to do so because at the very least it's a way of saying 'hey, I don't want you to fiddle around with my resource pack, thanks'. As the author of PackSquash, the tool that was linked above that optimizes and 'protects' resource packs, I can confirm this is very true.
