How to encrypt mugen?

Not molebox... Another method

I've seen mugens which have tons of *.char files or other files in the same directory as the exe. No character folder, no sound folder. The data folder only has the mugen.cfg file. How did they do that?

You mean.....it's a "mugen" game that has every file, excluding the mugen.exe and the mugen.cfg files, compressed into .char files?

No, the other way around. Only MUGEN.CFG in the data folder, EXE in the game folder. No Character Folder, but files with the character's names are in the same directory as the exe.

So....it's like this:

[Mugen Directory]
--[data]
----mugen.cfg
--winmugen.exe

Only two files, and one folder?

sorry for being unclear...
[Mugen Directory]
--[data]
-----mugen.cfg
--[Plugins <--- The usual mugen1.0 plugin folder]
--Random files that have the name of characters in the game (ex. SF_Ryu".random")
--mugen1.0.exe

Basically, the author of the game, packs the characters, stages, sounds in random files in the same directory as mugen1.0. and the game refers to these files instead of [Chars] [Stages] or [Sounds]

Hope that's explicitly clear for you.

Unless the mugen.exe is actually changed somehow which I doubt (check the size) as there is no source code, I think he simply zipped the characters, then renamed the zip files into .char ones, and just specified an absolute path of some kind so the chars subfolder is not necessary. Try unzipping the .char files, if they work, he just did that. Of course this would mean that all the sound and stage files are also in the mugen folder unzipped (and maybe also renamed).

MUGENCHINA uses the same method. How are they doing this? It looks so neat and organized and secured.

sure, but now I'm curious what those ppl used.
The method they used seem to fit for mugen rather than any software.
Refer to my previous post.

Is molebox with packages distribution --; if you don't know how to do that read a tutorial or how-to about molebox. >:(

So you think there is a program written specifically for mugen that boxes stuff up?

So it's actually molebox? Same with KOF Zillion mugen by mugenchina and kof wing mugen?

I thought molebox can only make mugen directory into an exe, either the whole directory into exe or leaving some folders out (ex. data), not being able to convert character folders into weird files with random file extensions which can be accessed by the game. (Click the spoiler alert on my previous post to see the example)

So any tutorials for molebox with packages distribution. I only know how to save it as a exe, not like this

Here, take a look at the full directory:

where the character files are in separate packages named with a random extension yet can be accessed by mugen.

EDIT: Do we need molebox pro for this? If so, how do I get it?
