Hi, everyone, it's me again ;D
As you's may have read in the past, I am trying to write a multiplayer mod for Paper Mario (N64 version). Ive been busy with other projects, but im wanting to work on this again. I need a MIPS disassembler with the following features: **SEARCH for pointer references (so I can, for instance, find where a string of text is used) view in ASCII view in hex view in mips assembly and of course, be able to modify it I know somebody is going to mention LemAsm, but this disassembler apparently does not have a feature to search for pointer references I also found a few MIPS disassemblers, but most of them are source code only, and I can't seem to compile them properly (perhaps they wernt written for windows). Also, I know somebody is going to mention IDA. I have IDA, but it seems to run extreamly slow on my computer, to the point where my computer freezes. Maybe I can use IDA, if there is a way to prevent it from doing all the extra stuff that slows it down. Any help would greatly be appreciated, in fact, I'll add you to the credits if I ever suceed in making this imposible mod |

Have you tried Hackman Suite 9.0?? http://www.download.com/Hackman-Suite-Lite/3000-2352_4-10529593.html?tag=lst-0-4
I'm not so much into asm hacking but I think this is a good one!! By the way, I'm very happy to hear about this project, I really hope it suceeds!! |

Try IDA pro. Its a professional dissasembler with support for a lot of different instruction sets. I use it all the time in my job, and its pretty good/accurate although it does make mistakes when it comes to labeling variables args. I believe you can download a free demo from their website : http://www.datarescue.com/idabase/idadown.htm | |||

Originally posted by eNathan By the way, I downloaded hackman!! It's awsome, indeed but apparently it does not support the MIPS instruction set (N64 assembly) And so the search goes on . . by the way, I recall there being an N64 emulator which supports real-time debugging, so maybe ill check into that in the mean time. |

For debugging: use Nemu 64!!! | |||

yes, I downloaded it yesterday.
It has a ton of options . . however, it does not have the ONE option that I really need. I need to be able to set breakpoints, so I can see which peice of code reads / writes to a certian memory address. And so . . the search goes on |

Well, as it turns out, Nemu64 does have the debugging feature I mentioned above. I couldnt find it at first, because it's rather hidden . . you have to right click the memory location to set a breakpoint, and I didnt guess around enough to do it heh. I'm still getting used to the MIPS assembly (compared to the regular x86 which were all so farmilar with), but it's easy to ajust to.
Well, if I make any progress on this paper mario hacking, I'll make sure to post it here and let everyone know about it! |
