I'd like to know how to obfuscate scripts (since my scripts are being stolen now q.q), something like this

loadstring('\27\76\117\97\81\0\1\4\4\4\8\0\35\66\0\0\114')())

I've searched for plugins but i really can't seem to find a working one.
Thanks in advance.

Someone uses a exploit and then steals the script, leaks it on forums.

Use string.byte but it can be read if you use string.char

OP what you posted was Lua bytecode, which loadstring NORMALLY can interpret HOWEVER Roblox disabled that functionality.

You can no longer do that/

Encryption is always a good idea, but if they can see your encryption they can see your encryption function.

Put you're entire script into a string and iterate through each character including the spaces and put them into a new string separated with / at the beginning of each one.

Flamed that is entirely different to what the OP did.

There's a difference between bytecode and a string formed via a ton of escapes.

If you want it to be hard to read you can use this: https://www.roblox.com/library/197760456/Stravant-Minify-Beautify-Beta

But no matter what you do it isn't going to stop people from stealing your things.

You could try making a ton of useless functions and variables (using instance.new() to fool them even more) and hiding the real function within it.

string.reverse
Friend taught me this old and yet so simple trick.
You can make the script unlegible and no one will know it's just reversed.

local bytes = [[\27\76\117\97\81\0\1\4\4\4\8\0\35\66\0\0\114]]
loadstring(bytes:gsub([[%\(%d+)]],string.char))()

and if you want to convert it into that format easier:

local yourstuff = [[
print('i am cool!')
local lmao_skillz="wow"
print(lmao_skillz)
]]
print(({yourstuff:gsub(".",function(match) return [[\]] .. match:byte() end)})[1])

Wunder stop posting, you don't know anything about Lua bytecode nor did you read anything I've said.
