Can WME games be wrapped in security DRMs?
« on: July 23, 2007, 08:54:16 AM »
Can they? :)

The only major issue I'm having with my current engine is that the games are unable to be wrapped in security DRMs.  As a developer, I don't care, but the distributors won't make the game available unless the game is wrapped.  I am looking into other engines, but this is the key issue for me.

Thanks for the help!

Hi Dave, I only briefly tested WME with Armadillo/Software Passport and everything seemed to work ok, even if the data package was attached to the game executable.
Do you have any specific protection technology on your mind?

Armadillo/Software Passport are the two main security DRMs that the distributors/portals use, so that's a major point in WME's favor.  Thanks for the help!

But keep in mind Armadillo has a lot of various options, so I can't guarantee 100% of them will work with WME, but the default project settings do.
