why do I have to learn powerpc assembly
I don't wanna
I just want to turn a BEQ into a B
and by "assembly" I mean "machine code".
just knowing assembly isn't enough. I need to know how to encode these damn instructions
oh hey "beq" isn't a real instruction. it's a mnemonic for a variant of BCx instruction!
OKAY I think I successfully hacked this game to not care about save game CRCs.
weird. I modified the byte I thought was controlling what color skirt I was wearing, and it changes the MARKER selecting my color, not the color itself. strange!
yeah the color is a pointer/res_id. boo. I can't just tweak a byte to get FORBIDDEN COLORS
wait no
is it just RGBA?
it is! enjoy my magenta skirt, yo!
the pants and skirts use a completely different coloring system.
of course they do.
WHY IS THERE SO MUCH FUCKING GENDER IN MY WHEEL OF FORTUNE GAME
reverse enginering powerpc binaries is too hard
let me just reverse engineer this completely undocumented stack-based virtual machine inside this game
oh god they're either running the VM recursively (running scripts inside other scripts) or they've implemented some kind of coroutine situation. either one scares me
I got distracted by rickroll. this keeps happening
@foone Funny coincidence on my home timeline. Not entirely sure whether it is or he was actually replying to you.
