Is it a map mod or some models/definitions?
Locking files encourages people to break the security ;)

Well the easiest way to do (and break) it is locking the archive with a password. We're using a tool from SCS themselves which we are not allowed to pass on.

If it's a map mod, you won't be able to lock it anyway - we also offer unlocked map archive because of that and def file, so people can do some tweaks if they want to.
