Basically anyone can copy your games, change a few stuff and get away with it because it isn't "an exact copy". SMH https://twitter.com/BlueFallRBX/status/800809576660660224

It's an exact 1 to 1 copy, I also gave them proof of him admitting that he stole it and sent them images of him leaking my game to other people where I also included the leaked Roblox studio file, but they still didn't care. So many people have left because Roblox has little protection and they don't do much about stolen games, I feel like I'm going to be one of them.

I mean the map is exactly the same, everything else isn't. The user has been previously banned for leaking other developers work so I don't see why the would let him off right now.

anything replicated to the client can be stolen tbh

there's not a whole lot that can be done to prevent it

Rocrap only bans people who steal front page games

What's sad is that repeated offenders/banned don't get an IP ban.

ANY GAME. no matter if it's FE on or off, can easily be stolen & theres nothing you can do about it.
However, hackers can't access normal scripts (they can only take module & local scripts, normal scripts will be empty)
and hackers can't access serverstorage

use those two limitations to your advantage ^

So instead of just storing your GUIS and stuff in their original folders, have a GameSetUp script that clones/loads them into the game.

@X
That won't work because they'll still get saved to the client which means an exploiter could easily take them just as they could have if they were there to begin with.

Since my game is closed for updates, I cannot provide a link to it. But I can provide a YouTube video of a YouTuber playing it, it's exactly the same map except the copied one has no trees.

Copied Game: https://www.roblox.com/games/549291663/Dragon-Ball-Beyond-Evolution
Video of my game with the same map (Note the upload date of the video): https://youtu.be/4r4E1bFbpqc

Also I know already how people can copy my game and what I can do about it, I'm just warning you guys that even if it does happen and if it's super blatant Roblox will rarely do anything about it. Which is sad and that's the reason why so many good developers left to much better engines and platforms.

Honestly it just looks like a rip off, not a direct copy. But if it really was copied:

It is a direct copy. The person who did it also sent me a Roblox studio file of my game containing everything except scripts :/ I'm tired of these people

Not going to go to such extent over Roblox. That would be extremely ridiculous.

This is why I don't release stuff anymore, its not worth risking people just coming and stealing your work that you took hours on.

Here, I'll help you out. All you have to do is fill in the blanks, then send this to copyright_agent @ roblox.com

Or you can let some stupid kid on the Internet and a greedy company win. Your choice.

But 9 times out of 10 the copied version never gets as popular as the original.
