any programmers out there?
im learning assembly language...well just enough at least to be of use for simple reverse engineering of software and understanding what the hell is going on during debugging
...........................
im using randyll hyde's free art of assembly language...got past truth tables but im wondering if i really need that stuff. but what topics do i really need to learn to get an understanding of basic game hacking?
or do i have to read this 1000+ page beast
memory ad 80x86 instructuions chapter i feel are gonna be important but are there things that i can weed out?
like the hardware info u think? |

Just get the assembly editor I have on my programs page, it is a real good one. From there it's not hard to figure out whats going on, the commands are pretty self explanatory
push (pushes on to stack)
pull/pop (pulls from stack)
mov (move memory from one address to another)
jmp (jump to a point)
jg (jump if greater than to a point)
it's all self explanatory, if you cant figure out what a command does, i have a nice help file listing them on the programs page too. |

Get a hold of Art Of Assembly language and read the first few chapters, you'll be fine. To know the basics of ASM at least.
