Obsidium1.6.7 Build 2

Obsidium is an advanced and reliable utility designed to provide developers with a means of encrypting their products to prevent cracking or other type of similar usage, allowing them to set up precise licensing conditions.

Straight-forward appearance

The tabbed interface of the application aims to simplify switching between its various sections, namely ‘Project’, ‘Settings’, ‘Keys’, ‘Users’ and ‘Protect’.Each area comprises several customizable features which allow users to fully decide how to implement the protection of their software. Obsidium’s ribbon enables users to save any changes or encode the project with a single button press.

Encrypting and licensing programs

For starters, users will need to create a ‘New Project’, giving it a unique name and setting its save path, or load an existing one into the application. The ‘Settings’ section comprises all the configuration options for the file’s protection, including the ability to ‘Encrypt Resources’, ‘Remove Exports’, activate ‘Compression’ or run ‘Debugger Checks’.More ‘Advanced’ preferences allow users to ‘Keep Overlays’, ‘Void Unneeded Resources’, apply ‘Delphi/BCB Obfuscation’, ‘Disable API Emulation’, ‘Limit Number Of Instances’ and several others. The ‘Licensing’ options let users decide the keyfile’s name and directory, as well as whether to lock the license to certain system components.The ‘Time Trial’ feature enables users to setup an expiration date, a limited number of runs or days, but they can also enter ‘User-Defined Trial Counters’, or ‘Display Custom Nag Screen’. In addition, ‘Custom Messages’ can be displayed for ‘Trial Expired’, ‘DLL Load Error’, ‘Import Error’ and others.

Intuitive software encryptor

To summarize, Obsidium is a useful and efficient tool aiming to offer developers a reliable method of protecting themselves against wrongful usage of their programs, by encrypting and licensing them.
