Quote: "Already downloaded it and mailed Dave. I applied the patch and Phoenix Sentry didn't work. Didn't know that this patch is only for the non-free versions.
It slows FPSC down? There is real-time protection available. What does real-time protection do? Is FPSC only slowed down when real-time protection is activated?"
Oh, I didn't know that was you!
Glad you sorted out what you were doing wrong.
Offtopic, to answer your question, the "real-time" protection can be disabled leaving only the "static" method of protection. Simply put, all games files are encrypted no matter what. This is what I call static protection because it exists whether Phoenix is running or not. "real-time" or runtime protection is the software methods that check for access to your game files during game-play. If tampering is detected, the game shuts down. Otherwise, the end-user's gaming experience is not hindered with keyhooks or blocked programs. Your end-user can still use applications like Messenger or even Task Manager.
Now, back to the topic: I believe you should try to protect the media whether it is your own creation or that of another starving artist.
Whether you use Vishnu, FPSpack, Phoenix or another software package is not important. Just please help protect the media in your games!
