I'm posting this again as I failed to find my old thread


Basically, attached to this thread is the encryption routine that I wrote a while back.

Basically, create a file called input.txt (or rename a file to that). Run generate key.exe to make a 64 bit key (or make your own in key.txt). Run encrypt.exe. Please check it my running decrypt.exe.


Please note I have not checked this extensively, so I bet you will have errors, basically I want to find out where and when they occur and perfect the routine. Post the errors and stuff here



The first problem I found is that the encryption converts one of the rectangle characters to newline, and they don't get converted back correctly, staying as newlines, which obviously corrupts the file...additionally I've been told it fails to work with bitmaps..

Thanks

Cool encyrption - what method does that use? I'm looking into making an online highscore table and could do with a decent encryption method.

basically ascii shifting and xor it's not very complicated once you know how to do it...


...and still the problem remains of it not working all the time

Ascii shifting...pfft thats a bit weak for encryption. Working with bits is the best way to go. Mhmm

the best way to go is a combination of things. Shift ascii values to an extreme extent then store all the information as scrambled arrays before finally storing the individual bits in a scrambeled manor.

No, the best UNBREAKABLE way is to use encrypt and decrypt using pads.

Pads can be bought, though. But oh well.
