Someone is still determined to find 82917 ways to decode it

wait wouldnt it be better to store the token in a datastore? somewhere thats not easy to access?

Hmm, good point well made. I never really thought of datastores because I hate them so much but yeah that way is more secure by far.

#45

Yeah, you can make a Model Storage Datastore or M.S.D, with the combination of this module

you can actually make a datastore that stores alot of models via strings/tokens. Which can be accessed by the name of the model (or however you want it). That would be a cool thing to do.

Besides the models themselves barely take any space in datastores (Kb < 4MB limit).

Need to store models of rooms for missions and etc? simple use this module and serialize them. After that, you store the token/BinaryString into a DataStore called ā€œMissionRoomsā€ and assign a name to them so that you can identify them.

I understood that part, the issue Iā€™m having is why is the client gaining access to said trello token/auth code?? If itā€™s stored on the server they canā€™t access it?

#47

This is great stuff. Iā€™ve been working on something similar in the form of a single module, parented to game. The module acts exactly like a service, and the code is executed through the command bar with a require(module:Clone()), so it can be changed and executed without having to reseat the module.

Alright, Iā€™ve released a counterpart to this module called RBNSR.

Itā€™s used if you dont need to store full instances, and allows you to store tables /w DataTypes supported in this list. (Its a single modulescript).

#49

How can i make it so that the things that this module serializes (aka the table it produces) saves to where i want it to be other than datastores?

#50

It doesnā€™t matter where you store the string, it will work regardless. So if youā€™d like to store it in a variable thatā€™s fine. You could also store it inside of a StringValue if youā€™d like. As long as the string remains unmodified it will work.

#51

whaaat? ok you just grilled my brain, so the string contains ALL of the data to deserialize?

#52

This is an interesting module. Out of curiosity, is there ever a use case where you need to save entire models to a datastore? Not sure if encoding Instances are necessary.

#53

Iā€™m pretty sure that the entire purpose of the module is to compress data into as short of a string as possible. The main use case for this would probably be for datastores or saving values to decode later.

#54

Took me a good while to respond to this but; Yeah this is defintely a lazy solution but a easy one. Thatā€™s why i strived to make it as small as possible.I have the ultimate module that iā€™ll release soon. Which essentially merges all serilization into one. Inlcuding lua tables, metatables, instances, all roblox datatypes and pretty much anything that can be stored into a value.

#55

Umm welds dont save, My house broke

#56

or a hacky way to load meshparts

local loadService = game:GetService("LoadService")
local meshid = "urmeshid"
local mesh = loadService:LoadAsset(meshid)
mesh.Parent = workspace

imagine if loadservice didnt exist lol

#57

yeah thats a way to bypass the issue, but the problem is to get the link of the meshobject.

something thatā€™s hard.

#58

what do you mean?

print(meshPart.MeshId) -- meshid

works for me.

#59

oh? ok then yeah thanks for the tip!

#60

Its just not writeable, but readable. Thats not true for scripts though.

#61

They should, werid. Try .AutoRename enabled.
