Lua Obfuscator

Obfuscate your lua code because it's so easy to steal!

How to use

First, download it via the releases tab

Second, make sure to extract the files (won't work if you just open it in the zip)

Third, run the exe and type the path to the lua files you'd like to be obfuscated (e.g C:\Users\user\Desktop\obf-these-files will obfuscate all the lua files in that directory)

How to compile

First, open the Lua Obfuscator.sln

Second, make your changes

Third, with Visual Studio, at the top press Build then Build Solution (this can change depending on your IDE)

I have an error

If you have an issue please open one on GitHub and I'll try to help.

lua-obfuscator's Issues

Can't open app (0xc000007b

0xc000007b error when trying to open .exe file, before that was error with ucrtbased.dll, but I fixed this by downloading this dll.

(suggestion) don't use loadstring

there are loads of easy to use Lua Bytecode decompilers (like unluac)
, and just using a lua compiler (which, from what i can tell, is all your code does).
Additionally, some environments don't provide loadstring, and require a custom LBI.
Additionally, use of some form of encryption would be useful.

DCS Still not accepting obfuscated LUA

Hi,

I have obfuscated two files with your new version and DCS is not taking it. It worked perfectly with changing load to loadstring, but with the new header it doesn't. Maybe there could be an option for the user to select load or loadstring manually...
Thanks!

Not full source code

When trying to recompile it (Added running parameter functionality,) the VSC++ compiler says that lua.h is missing. So are a lot of other header files.

after confuse the source code, can't use lua5.4 to run

use lua5.4 run the code raise error bad argument #1 to '?' (value out of range)

Scritp obfuscating but not .lua

What? Can u help me?

Impossible to run it

Hi, when i start the .exe it gaves me Error Code 0xc000007b. I installed both x86 and x64 vcredist that you linked in the description. I also tried to open the project in Visual Studio but it's the same. Also tried to run it on a clean OS but nothing seems to work :(

Hello,
I opened this because i got 1 error in visual studio while building.
Error LNK1181 cannot open input file 'C:\Users\yoka1\Desktop\Main\Hjackt tools\Lua-Obfuscator-master\packages\lua.5.4.1\build\native\lib\x64\ERROR\Release\lua.lib' Lua Obfusactor C:\Users\yoka1\Desktop\Main\Hjackt tools\Lua-Obfuscator-master\Lua Obfusactor\LINK 1

obfuscated lua doesn't run

Hi,

I have used your code to obfuscate my LUA below, but loading it to the simulator "DCS World", it doesn't work anymore.
Do you have any idea what could be wrong? The script runs fine when not obfuscated.
Thanks a lot!
