This was my favourite talk from @REverseConf! @mahaloz made an intimidating (to me) topic really accessible, and I feel like I now have a better understanding of the decompilers I use every day. He is a great presenter too :D Would recommend checking it out!

Presente de Natal pra mim foi o lançamento da recompilação nativa pra PC de Star Fox 64, por fãs.

Some updates on #r2ai:
- decai now support auto mode for function calling, with ANY model
- Added support for Gemini and X.AI endpoints
- Start the full rewrite of the Python/JS code in plain C
- Switch to gpt4-turbo for 128K context instead of 8K on OpenAI backend
- Recursive decompilation mode for inlining stubs and better type propagation

Thanks to the great Decompilation project by Team HarbourMasters (HM64), you can now play both "The Legend of Zelda" titles released originally for the Nintendo 64 on your PC, Mac and Linux.

I gave it a try for both "Ocarina of Time" and "Majora's Mask" and I'm overwhelmed with the quality.

Recomp/decomp stuff on PC, FPGAs like MiSTER are getting better and cheaper every day, and emulation is so easy to use.

Thoughts?

i wonder how much having binaries for multiple architectures can help can help #reverseEngineering / #decompilation efforts.

i was thinking of games like The Lost Vikings that have been ported to dozens of systems, and it seems like there's gotta be some useful information in the various binaries. i don't know if they were based on common source code or not, but in any case it seems like you could learn additional constraints form different implementations .

Fun fact: those name menus on Harvest Moon? one would think that it would work a simple way, you move right, increase index by one, etc, well... no. Every possible movement on the menu has been pre-calculated, thats so you dont choose unused positions, used for japanese characters not in other versions, I think...

Sometimes, you get angry at a guy that coded a game like when you where 10. Remember that this was made by mostly 3 persons

#HarvestMoon
#StoryofSeasons
#Decompilation
#disassembly
#snes

I been disasembling Harvest Moon for snes for a while, and I just pushed the first comit, I hopo at least someone likes my dumb project.

Continuing from the Super Mario World decompilation project, now the All-Stars versions of Super Mario Bros and SMB: The Lost Levels have been ported to PC with no emulation needed.

JEB Assistant
PNF Software, has published a new feature called "JEB Assistant" with its new JEB release(v5.2.0). As the blog post initiates, this feature is only experimental at the moment. When you decompile a function, you can "Call the Assistant" and your decompiled output will send to JEB's server; it then (may) returns a better function name and parameter names (not variable names).
The assistant does not work on dalvik/dex right now, it only supports native code!

decompilation project for my favorite game of all time has made some wicked progress! #PaperMario #Decompilation #RetroGaming https://github.com/pmret/papermario

[Paper of the day][#8] Debugger-oriented #decompilation. Decompilation is hard, but we can make it practical by skipping the hard constructions. In this paper, we show how we can construct a #decompiler extension on top of the #GDB #debugger and how to use it to skip #malware #unpacking and decompiling the extracted #payload.
