How to encode the *.dff, *.col, *.txd file ?

[Polak0]

Hello. For some time I have been making models for MTA:SA, 
and I am wondering if one can encode * .dff, * .txd and * .col files? 
If so, how, I do not mean methods such as (dff protection by 3ds max *the LOCK DFF* option, 
but for something else, to change the format other than dff, col and txd.  
 Sorry for my english, i've using google translate ;v

You can do some stuff with MTA Lua functions, but you need to know Lua for that.

Okay, you could give this code because I do not understand a bit lua .

Nope, I am following the forum rules. 

 

 

The only thing I can do for you, is pointing you to the right information. Or helping you with the code you haven't written yet.

All the functions you will need to do this:

1. FileRead
2. TeaEncode
3. FileCreate
4. FileWrite
5. FileClose

Try creating something and if it does not work post ya code here and we'll help.

Read the dff/col/txd file, then use base64Encode(which Mr.Loki forgot), then encode the string u got, then write it.
And there you have ur encoded file.
To load it, you'll need the key you provided to T.E.A. base64Decode, with that you'll get the bytes, pass the bytes to the function (engineLoadlDFF, and such,be sure it accepts raw data)
