I have seen a lot of tuts on coding patchers in asm, vb, and C. Does anyone have the source for a simple patcher in C#?

Sorry if this is was a remarkably stupid question. At least i put this in the newbie thread.

Why can't you use Asm or C? IMHO C# is a bloated piece of crap, and the main reason why Reversers do not use such languages is because of that, and the fact that they are more comfortable with Asm or C.

You have not demonstrated any efforts of attempting to search for the answer to your question. Go to any search engine, type in "C# patcher", and don't come back until you've read through all those search results!

Uh Oh! Somebody is stealing my job.

LLXX thanks for steering fuzzBall in the right direction! The only comment I would add is: fuzzBall read the BIG RED LETTERS and what's written under your signature and you should understand why LLXX made the comment that was made about SEARCHING for your own answers FIRST and THEN you ask for help.

Regards,

Sorry guys, didn't mean to upset anyone. I had previously googled multiple search keywords in direct relation to my post to no avail. I did not come up with anything regarding a patch coded in C#, leading to my post here.

Once again I am very sorry.

Thanks

The only thing you need to be feeling sorry about is that you did not say in your original post nor did you TELL US you had done any searching on your own for "a patch coded in C#". If you actually had said you had searched for that, the responses probably would have been different. Your first post actually says you have "seen a lot of tuts".

Did your actually try the suggestion LLXX gave you and did you really find "nothing" useful?

How about trying something like:

C# patcher source code

and/or

source code C# patcher

and see if your find anything interesting.

I also repeat that learning how to search for information is one of the most important skills a wannabe cracker can develope. There is a great deal of information on the web when one only learns how to properly search for it. There is an entire website, linked at the bottem of these Forums, maintained by the founder of this Forum on the "art" of searching. It's called 'Fravia's Searchlores" and I highly recomment it to you.

Don't be discouraged that you were reminded of our Rules. It is not "personal," simply necessary to keep the completely lazy from overwhelming out Forum with lame requests for things they could have easily found themselves with a little searching.

Regards,

Think about why someone would use C# to create a patch (or even use C# at all) and all the disadvantages associated with such, compare it to any advantages (if any) and you will clearly understand why almost no one writes patches in C#.

There certainly are patchers written in C#, with source code available, as you would've found out if you had done exactly what I said in my first Post.

google C# patcher source code as JMI suggested and you will get some useful hits

what about a c patcher.. ?Im programming with Tinycc.. It seems really hard for me to find the ones for c since c is only one character.. And search engines seems to always point to c++ or c# or something else..

If you don't understand how to write your own patcher, you are probably better off using one of these instead:

not trying to start a flame war, but...



while LLXX does speak for all of us when it comes to searching, LLXX doesn't speak for all of us when it comes to c#. i actually love c# and use it all the time.

Do note the dates of the previous posts in this thread, and also note that LLXX was banned long ago for exactly that kind of flamewar-inducing arrogance.

ah, please disregard then
