Posted: Tue Jul 13, 2010 3:33 am Post subject: [ASM] Analyzing large amounts of code |
|
|
Straight to the problem: i'm enjoying messing with games (as you might have guessed ) and right now i'm messing with functions, so i'm analyzing the raw asm, using CE to read it and then notepad++ to comment, understand and convert it to pseudocode.
So my question is, is there any faster way of doing this? any tools that could speed the process up? (for example something that makes it faster to annotate jumplines)
thanks in advance

IDA Pro has a plugin called Hexrays which can convert disassembled applications functions to guesstimated C functions. Not usable just by copy pasting, but to a pseudo feel. Neither of which is free though.
OllyDBG does a nice job at helping illustrate code flow as well though. The new version (2.x beta) is doing more to help understand argument flow and such as well too. Sadly though, it is a bit behind Olly v1 currently, with no plugins so using it effectively for major reversing can become tedious. (But plugins are coming soon.)

then I'll try using both together with CE in order to have access to as many tools as possible.. thanks

Just a 'btw', OllyDbg 2.0 is out of beta now. Well out for over a month. Look into lena151 tutorials to get good with OllyDbg.

Yeah, I know. But it still does not have the plugin backend added yet.
