Hiding files

I have a game written in Delphi (with GLScene) that uses hundreds of
textures, models, maps which I dont want people to have access to when
they install my game. Is it possible to create something like an
encrypted disk (eg like www.dekart.com) that I could put all my
textures etc onto and only my application can access it? I could then
include the crypted disk in the install (if its a single file like
Dekart). I would prefer not to have to change my code to decrypt
crypted files and also would prefer to not write code that would
encrypt hundreds of files every time I want to create an install.
