release Efficient DLL Validation System in C++

[Black_Rose©]

This guide outlines an effective approach to ensure the validity and integrity of DLL files within a C++ application. It focuses on verifying the file size and checking MD5 hashes as critical steps in protecting applications from unauthorized file modifications.

Key Features

The following functionalities will be implemented in this approach:

• Automatic loading of a DLL from the game source.
• Verification of the specific DLL's size to ensure it matches the expected size.
• Checks on multiple client files to ensure their MD5 hashes match the expected values.

The design ensures that if any files are altered using tools like HexEditor or removed, the application will not run until the MD5/version and size checks pass.

Configuration

To set up the environment for your application, include the necessary macros and define the DLL size:
