IDA Plugin info
Here is a little utility I wrote to list IDA Pro plugin information. About 30 plugins come with the default IDA install (~60 if you count the .p64 versions), then you start adding your own and with others off the web it can get a little difficult to manage.
New site under construction
I’m putting my site back together here after I let it all go “404” last year. I restored my old blog, put up a new clean forum, and I’m in the process of adding some other new stuff. My old site was mainly centered around my Macromonkey scripting system. I plan on bringing part of […]
IDA StringMiner™
Today, I’ll show off this IDA plug-in I made over a few months last summer. I ended up with basically an enhanced replacement for IDA Pro’s Strings window that understands many character set encodings (of the multi-byte foreign language kind, other then our ubiquitous friend ASCII), extracts ambiguous UTF-16 strings (real ones, using code pages […]
Updates to my plug-ins, QT work around for segment selector, something new.
IDA plug-in updates: Over the last month or so I’ve updated a lot of my plug-ins you can find HERE. Also released the source for Class Informer that people had asking for: https://sourceforge.net/projects/classinformer/. IDA Multi-select segment dialog: I’ve fixed some bugs and made my customized multi-select IDA segment dialog work again. This where it allows […]
Speed up the Zynamics BinDiff “port” feature by 3000%
If you use IDA Pro with the Zynamics BinDiff plug-in you might find this useful. My little fixer plug-in here (or followed patch instructions) will improve the speed of the “Import Symbols and Comments..” aka “port” feature by over 3000% (yes you read that correctly, three thousand percent!)
L.A. Noire PC command line options
Got around to finishing L.A. Noire recently. It’s a huge, fun, and original game with an immersive cinematic feel to it. Also interesting is the story behind it’s development and tech: L.A. Noire – Wikipedia L.A. Noire Trailer: I unfortunately had performance problems running it on my machine. Not a bad machine mind you, I […]
Bing / Microsoft Translator C++ example
Today I write about the Bing/Microsoft Translator and give you a nice C++ example on how to use the API (using the HTML interface) since there is none to be found elsewhere. You will not find a single C++ example in any of the MS documentation (nor a current complete one any place else on […]
IDA Signsrch released
I made an IDA Pro plug-in version of Luigi Auriemma’s excellent signsrch signature searching tool. It’s great for finding popular cryptographic signatures, etc. The dialog:
Adventures in automated World of Tanks hit zone skin mapping
WOT (World of Tanks): WOT Wikipedia Servers: North America, Europe, Russian First a bit of teaser. A labeled hit model side view of the German heavy Löwe tank: If you play WOT you probably know that ideally you want to shoot at an enemy’s vehicle vulnerable spots to do max damage. It’s kill or be […]
IDA function reference count to comment plug-in
It dawned on me the other day that because of how I think when I do reversing that seeing how many times a function is referenced would be useful information. If I could just glean this off the screen rather then manually pressing ‘X’ and count summarizing each sub-function while within a function then that […]
