IMVU Product Protector
Keep your products safe

Image

What is it?
The IMVU Product Protector is a program that will make your products safe from h4c|<7d clients. When you create a new product or load an old one, it will lock it so no h4c|<7d client can open it and steal your files.

How does it work?
To protect your products and keep this method from being broken, I cannot disclose exactly how it works. But I can tell you that it modifies the chkn file before you upload it to IMVU.

Is it safe?
Absolutely! This program does not modify anything but your chkn. It will not change the product in any way and it does not connect to the internet. You should always keep a backup copy of your chkn in case you ever want to edit your product in the future

How do I use it?
There are 2 ways to use this program. First, you can simply run the program and then create a new product in create mode. When you click the save button, it will automatically recognize the chkn and modify it if it hasn't been modified already. The second way you can use it is to simply run the program and then drag your existing product files into the "IMVU Projects folder" where it will lock them all.

Features
-Prevents h4c|<7d clients from ripping your products
-Works on both old and new products
-Increased locking protection, no 2 locked files are the same
-Quick access to your IMVU Projects folder
-Real time information when modifying files

Please sent all bug reports or feature requests to me in a private message or post in this thread.

I feel as though this site is mostly about ripping files through use of the T3DE, this can be exploited and leaked to all the pro devs in the catalog and the T3DE will be totally destroyed.

That couldn't be further from the truth. The site is much more than that. It's actually more about protecting people and helping/teaching them. Just no one seems to care. I'm not sure what you mean about this being leaked and exploited though. I publicly released it here and posted it on my tumblr for everyone to use. Not to mention there's already another site with their own version too so it's not really a secret.

Besides, there will still be thousands of products in the catalog T3DE can rip and it still gives you other features. Though, i wouldn't mind it if product ripping went down.

Is there a risk of having account banned?


No, there isn't. You're modifying your own product. The locking mechanism is not malicious in any way shape or form, it simply causes an error when you or someone else tries to edit your product in create mode.

If its not an animation that was newly made own your own then chances are theres 20 others so yeah t3de is still useful.

Also if im not mistaking T3DE was posed to be more towards helping people learn how to create by seeing how other things was made.

only way this will semi shut T3DE down is if it ever gets updated to back up all files for you and lock them for you without having to do it 1by1 with hand since some devs have like a million products.

You don't have to do it one by one. This program will lock any chkn you drag into your imvu projects folder. So, you can drag as many as you want in and it will lock them all.

Granted, in my tests I only did 2 chkns at a time though. It's main purpose is to lock your product as you create it in create mode but it works both ways.
