Protect resourcepack from unzip

How to protect your resourcepack from thief

Disclaimer

There is no 100% effective way to protect resourcepack because the game must need to be able to extract it correctly to show textures.

This feature is a mitigation to avoid kids and trolls to steal your texture. Some experienced users might be able to find a way to bypass these protections.

ItemsAdder does its best to prevent this, but keep that eventuality in mind.

Every other plugin has the same limitations. It's not a limitation of ItemsAdder.

With ItemsAdder you can protect your resourcepack from unzip and thieves. You just have to set this option in config.yml and use /iazip again. If you're using Dropbox don't forget to reupload the pack and update the config.yml

config.yml

  zip:
    protect-file-from-unzip:
      protection_1: true
      protection_2: true

protection_1

The protection_1 property allows you to protect the resourcepack with a basic method.

protection_2

The protection_2 property allows you to protect the pack with another layer of protection to block some other methods to unzip the pack.

Showcase

This is a funny meme showcase of what the user will see when they try to steal your data. But this is actually what the user will see, a group of corrupted files and folders.
