Swizzbeat Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Why not just authenticate it with your server? 1
thepecher Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Why not just authenticate it with your server? I don't have a server. This is for local jars you send to people to test (obfuscated if wanted)
Swizzbeat Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 I don't have a server. This is for local jars you send to people to test (obfuscated if wanted)You can get a free one from a ton of web hosts :p plus obfuscation won't do anything if they know what they're looking for.You could argue that you could take out the server call and have the script run fine, however in that case just have the script download a necessary class/library for it to function and delete it afterwards. This way if the beta test window has passed the server will reject the request for the required dependancies. 1

Wizard Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Isn't that easy to bypass by changing the time on the PC?

Wizard Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 bypassing a thing doesn't mean that it doesn't work. And good, you know how to use the IMG BBCode, congratulations

thepecher Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Yeah you can but usually testers don't know that so i don't care. Never gave out a fully working script so yeah... Swizz's option might be better. This is just a quick thing you can put in your script incase you need a tester quickly.
