@Xzer I have tried and succeeded very easily just to see what would happen. I found all the codes, they are placed in the comments. I decompile .swf's of my friend to see if there any errors and such so, it's obviously not impossible to read the code. They are usualy placed like ex:
//d0 47 d0
_as3_connect to servers

I'm a developer and one of my favorite things is cheating, so I usually make it a challenge in my games. I add easter eggs, cheat codes, and hidden powerups. Don't look at any of my games, they're all crap, I haven't release any for a while. I have 3 coming out that will be very good, though.

well, too bad it doesn't even mention how the cheat engine works, in my opinion, somebody should explain how the cheat engine works so we can prevent cheating.

Very nice tuts, also you can disable tab by putting the following code on just the first frame.
_root._focusrect = false;

It would be easier if there was only 1 PC tale. But then would everything be hacked... and cracked... and bugged... Keep this comment alive if UR a PC Fan ?

@Foral I use cheat engine for test purposes ONLY and found that it is quite easy to edit two variables at once. Quite so I can easily edit 20 at once, so we just got to keep improving our math and hope to god by putting massive decimals on the score it will prevent hacking for standard users. Any use of multipliers such as x4 x8 x16 etc. could be overly risky for the game. Try to keep as many variants of the score as possible to help prevent people from finding on value and changing it, they would have to find like 5 random numbers change the values so when multiplied there values are equivalent to actually make the score change. This would be hard to find the exact multiplier of each one to hack it :) hope this helps explain the issue moreover.

@Zaixionito: You can make your game unhackable by storing everything on a server. Also, how are you going to make it so people who cheat can't submit their score?

@Xzer, you wrong its actually really easy to decompile 99% of all games and its easy to go through it to find variable name like copy+paste to notepad and ctrl+f health or money or coins etc., so using random names like ngkjh will make it much more time consuming to find but also harder for the developer so yeah... :S

This is the worst thing ever invented I don't even know how Xzer would even dare to put this online. He is so stupid I wanna die by looking at it

To make sure your game dosn't get hacked you need to know how a hacker thinks... http://www.forum.arcadetrainer.com/viewforum.php?f=10

Placing a banana peel on the floor just past your locked door makes it 'harder' to break into your house, but few people would bother. swfencrypt is slightly less effective than this.
If somebody bothered to go to all the hassle of grabbing the swf and running a decompiler over it, they're fairly likely to spend the extra few minutes it takes to strip off swfencrypt nonsense.

swfencrypt is fairly useless. Anybody who can decompile a swf can defeat it with little effort. But then, anybody who believes in things like swfencrypt probably doesn't have any code worth reading.

Whos gives a crap Swf encrypt is there for extra protection. Yes it may be easy to crack, but its one more thing for someone to do to get the code they want and the people that are not very good at the decompiling will simply give up. less risk of it getting hacked in the long term. is a little better than nothing? Think about it.

I've been thinking about the score modifying issue. Sure stopping score mods over a certain value would work, but someone could be dedicated enough to do it long enough to rack up those scores. I'm thinking of adding a secondary counter that is added to along with the score feature (onEnterFrame scoring in my case). If the counter is not increased with the score during that frame, revert the score to the previous frames score. Not being a hacker personally how easy is it to edit two variables simultaneously?

Exuse me, but can you also add a download of the tabEnabled and other hacking stuff to mediafire.com too, because I'm having trobl with rapidshare and the other website
