What's best? ASProtect or Armadillo

Correction: There is no public automatic unpack tool available for Arma 3.0 and higher.

A number of people have written their own private utilities that do the job quite well. I, for one, and also Squidge I think, and also a few people on Woodmann...

AsprStripper has never worked 100% on ASPR any of the times I have tried it (though it seems to work fine on ASPack), so I'm not sure I would say there's a "real" automatic unpack tool avail for ASPR 1.23+ either.

Regards

asstripper works perfectly on every aspack/aspr app i've seen.

Apparently you haven't tried it on ResBuilder or TweakRAM or any of the other apps I've had to unpack manually recently.

you are right, it doesn't always unpack correctly. asprotect has also some nice tricks that program doesn't work after unpacking, like the "Call Dword PTR:[xxxxxxxx]". for example, AnyDVD:

manual unpack: it can call it.
Stripper: DWORD is empty, no call. program crashes. you have to fix manually.

Advanced Administrative Tools: a large number of call eax, which code is dynamically unhashed. no way to fix all at once. but in this target, it doesn't matter if you use manual unpacking or stripper. but i think i have fixed nearly all of them.

there are a large number of targets which doesn't work after unpacking.
mostly that are targets which use the ASPR-Registration.

security never perfect,just delay sometime.human made never been PERFECT,so the best protection for your soft is FREEWARE

yeah I am agree on 1 point ....
All software could be crack ... its just of matter of time but I saw 1 soft that nobody succeed to break and this company use its own security ...

They have beat the cracker out there
Moral of this story !!!
Learn how to crack and make you own security shit and sell you software not expensive

Flex
to whoom that want to know which software I am talking about pm me

Well, mate... I saw and see lots of uncracked apps, especially dedicated to engineering - there are plenty of them. Have you ever wondered why they aren't cracked? Not because of protection strength but very little requirement. They are just not popular.

With all respect to your message it's not about strength but popularity. Think about it.

I am partially agree with you but not completely ...
I talk to great pps that usually do what ever they want in that field but in that case they never come across doing something workable. (lic gen)

Without any help with ida sdk signature, like they use with flex..LM shit, its more time consumming ...

Anyway like I said before if someone wanna try I can give an help like trying to decompile in asm and reverse to C language and try to understand ...

i agree, my friend is using some engineerinf tools as ProEngineer and Ansys, yet they are not really popular, they are still cracked !!!
However they are lotsa same stuff, which are not cracked because nobody knows them... So it won't get cracked till somebody needs them or want to challenge the crack.
