think its something to do with net framework? as it used to work fine with v3.5 now i use 4

That's very possible, although I'm not sure because I never had it work. I am using 4 too, though.

Guys, I've tried for more than a year, off and on, to get -any- encryption app to work with GM. I tried -many- and most either didn't work at all or barely worked so I gave up.

This Is Great!

Game Maker's DLL mechanism must be really shaky. I have a simple DLL I programmed myself and it sometimes won't initialize, "Error while defining external function". The problem disappears/reappears after a reboot.

In the case of Ultracrypt, exit FRAPS or the DLL cannot initialize.

Hey, sorry for bumping this but I have a problem/concern with this:

so.... how do I know if it's like crypted or not through just the game itself? Is there a way to just decrypt it when I need to read or write to a file and decrypt it when I close it? Or something similar? Personally I think it's a little inconvenient for the programmer if they can't specify which encryption they want to do.

Also, I don't get the purpose of the password at all if you only enter it in in your code and people can see it if they decompile your game

Of course this seems like a great dll altogether although!

Message received. Thanks again! And please, by all means, take your time. I think I'd appreciate that too.

I've finished:

Please tell me if it works for you. The example I included here is it encrypting none other than the first DLL that came to mind - Ultracrypt. I didn't include much of a practical example, but please tell me if it works (i.e. after encryption you can still see the resource data but can't use the DLL).

This DLL can be modified to work while FRAPS is running? I'm not kidding... if I have FRAPS running, I get an error. I exit FRAPS, no error. From my viewpoint, it's something random outside of GM and outside of the DLL that shouldn't have any effect on the execution of either.

I have no idea why this is happening; the OS seems to relocate the DLL wrongly while FRAPS is running... I'd recommend using CamStudio or some alternate software that doesn't hook DirectX.

Hey, it doesnt works on C++, is there any idea?

I also have this issue with two dlls and windows 7.

its stupid! had to abort a program due to this.

so whats causing it, the dll work AND gm can use them, its just that sometimes they wont work, unless you reboot once or twice, what kind of crap is that
