I searched in this forum, only found a couple of thread relating to my question, and none of them answered all my questions.


First, how can I import the symbols(.map or .nms file) created by IDA? I looked all menu items and short cut menus, still could not found anything useful.

Second, when I patched the exe, after I copies the changes to the exe file, then all breakpoints were gone if I restarted debuggin. Is there a way to save them.

Third, when debugging, sometime I want to go back serveral line and recheck, is there a way doing that?

Forth, is there any command like BPIO or BPM in ollydbg?


I played with a good crackme by using olldydbg. The experience with ollydbg is much better than with Softice. I know softice is one of the best tool but somehow I could not make it work.

thanks in advance

to load the map file produced by ida you need a plugin called mapconv
or you can try godup plugin
both are available for download in ollydbg forum
ollydbg.win32asmcommunity.net/stuph

now to save the break points and comments in ollydbg you need to analyze
the executable either use ctrl+a (analyze)
or try check marking
analyze the main module automatically in debugging options menu

but remember if the exe in questions is packed then crc checks of the exe by ollydbg
can still invalidate the analysis (there is an option to ignore the crc checks
in debugging options --> security tab)

if you still find it is not working try getting the breakpoint manager plugin
and create a backup of your breakpoints and force load the break points
in extreme cases

exactly what I need, thanks a million
